Blu (Creator/JesseEisenberg) is a critically endangered Spix's Macaw (referred to as a "[[ArtisticLicenseLinguistics Blue Macaw]]") who lives as a pet with Linda Gunderson (Creator/LeslieMann), owner of a small bookstore in wintry, serene Minnesota. However, after a visit from a ornithologist Tulio Monteiro (Creator/RodrigoSantoro), Blu finds out that he is one of the last of his kind, and there is a ''female'' macaw named Jewel (Creator/AnneHathaway) in South America. He is sent down as part of a captive breeding program, [[TrailersAlwaysSpoil quickly kidnapped along with her]] by a group of smugglers, [[ChainedHeat gets chained together with her]], then [[TrailersAlwaysSpoil they escape and go on an adventure in Rio de Janeiro]]. But as bad as the smugglers are--well, just the boss anyway--they are nothing compared to their nefarious cockatoo Nigel (Creator/JemaineClement), who is determined to find and recapture the two macaws and bring them back to the smugglers--and he'll do ''anything'' to accomplish his devious task.

Oh, and Blu doesn't have the first clue how to fly.

* ArtisticLicenseLinguistics: Blu and Jewel are referred to as "Blue Macaws" instead of Spix's Macaws. Somewhat justified by a common nickname for the Spix's: Little Blue Macaw (which is also the translated Portuguese name of the bird). They do manage to sneak the real name in at one point (see BilingualBonus above).

* TheCapitalOfBrazilIsBuenosAires: It helps that the director is Brazilian. However, a couple of stereotypes and errors did creep in:
** They go to Brazil ''just'' in time for Carnaval.
** The "missing" poster for Blu is incorrectly phrased (the word "extensão" makes no sense in that context. The correct word would be "ramal").
