The Angry Birds are back and angrier than ever this week, with the arrival of The Angry Birds Movie 2 in theaters this Wednesday. This is not to be confused with Angry Birds 2 the video game, a sequel to the first game that was initially released in 2009. If you’ve encountered a child in the last decade, you’ve likely heard this furious fowl franchise, which was adapted into a feature film, The Angry Birds Movie, in 2016, starring the voices of Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, Sean Penn, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, Bill Hader, and Peter Dinklage. Now all those actors, along with a few new voices, are back for the sequel, presumably with new things to be angry about.
What exactly it is that has these birds so angry about remains a mystery to me. Did they run out of bread crumbs? Did a business owner put spikes on their favorite awning? But I imagine I might understand a bit better if I had seen the first film. If you, too, would like to catch up before you see the second film, here’s where to watch The Angry Birds Movie online.
IS THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ON NETFLIX?
Sadly, no, the first Angry Birds film is not on Netflix. However, you can watch the first three seasons of the Angry Birds Toons TV series, a Finnish animated show based on the video game. Just note that the show is not related to the plot of the film franchise, and also, it’s in Finnish. (However, there’s hardly any dialogue.)
IS THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ON HULU?
Also no! The Angry Birds Movie is not on Hulu for regular subscribers, though again, the Angry Birds TV series is. However, if you subscribe to Hulu Live TV, the film is available. Time for a free trial, perhaps?
IS THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ON AMAZON PRIME VIDEO?
Yes, but you’ll have to pay for it. The Angry Birds Movie is $3.99 to rent or $7.99 to buy on Amazon Prime Video. I know, paying for things is a bummer, but that’s the way capitalism works, folks!
WHERE ELSE CAN I WATCH THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ONLINE?
If you’re a cable subscriber or a subscriber of FX’s streaming service, FXNow, you can catch the film there. Otherwise, you can rent or buy the film on iTunes, Google Play, YouTube, or wherever you prefer to purchase your digital films. Enjoy your legally procured content!
