History YMMV / TheAngryBirdsMovie

* SignatureSong: "Friends" by Music/BlakeShelton, "Red on the Run" and "Risky Idea" (more specifically the part where Red launches himself into Leonard's castle).

** Several of the score pieces: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nssyyXOS3c8 "Red on the Run"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJciBWpregg "Birthday Party"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElxyCi4hRPE "Ready, Aim, Fire!"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q12nOJwgqSY "I Used to Believe in You"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEsvp_uXc7o "Risky Idea"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1b79w5Rou70 "We Want Eggs!"]].

** The pigs had to learn about existence of eggs from somewhere, since Leonard mentions that his father, grandfather and his weird uncle Louie were searching for eggs but didn't managed to find them, implying that before events of the movie eggs were treated by pigs as {{MacGuffin}}s. This means that in the past pigs managed to eat eggs...

* JerksAreWorseThanVillains: Despite Leonard being a character who literally EatsBabies, he can actually be quite an entertaining character due to his LargeHam ([[{{Pun}} heh]]) and AffablyEvil tendencies as well as being an [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass actual effective antagonist despite seeming like an idiot]]. Judge Peckinpah on the other hand is a bitter [[JerkassToOne Jerkass to Red and only Red]] just because he has anger issues, and encourages the other birds to look down on him for it. He even coldly tells Red in court that "Birds, they may smile at you on the street, [[KickTheDog but that doesn't mean they like you]]." It's safe to say that nobody missed him when he [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome was completely absent]] from [[WesternAnimation/TheAngryBirdsMovie2 the sequel]] outside of making a small cameo on a painting in Red's house.

** What was Terence [[NothingIScarier incident]]?

** What was Terence [[NoodleIncident incident]]?

* FridgeHorror: While the games and other media have often portrayed it as somewhat BlackComedy, the fact that these pigs are basically attempting to eat the unborn children of the birds (and they are definitely eggs that will hatch) is pretty unnerving.

* JerksAreWorseThanVillains: Despite Leonard being a character who literally EatsBabies, he can actually be quite an entertaining character due to his LargeHam ([[{{Pun}} heh]]) tendencies as well as being an [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass actual effective antagonist despite seeming like an idiot]]. Judge Peckinpah on the other hand is a bitter [[JerkassToOne Jerkass to Red and only Red]] just because he has anger issues, and encourages the other birds to look down on him for it.

** Judge Peckinpah wasn't the first Angry Birds character to [[TotemPoleTrench stand on another character to make himself taller]]. The Bird-ified version of [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] did the same thing with '''two''' pigs back in VideoGame/AngryBirdsStarWars.

* BrokenBase: The typically limbless birds and pigs suddenly gaining arms and legs for the movie has Angry Birds fans and non-fans alike divided over whether or not the designs work or if the characters with arms/wings and legs was something man was not meant to see.

** During Chuck's anger management, Matilda said that he used his speed to take a police officer's credit card, trash his office, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking buy everyone drinks at the coffee shop]], and drip melted ice cream onto him. It's funny enough on it's own, but it gets even more hilarious whenever Chuck says it [[BirdPoopGag probably wasn't ice cream]].
** In the same scene, Matilda reading Terence's... [[NoodleIncident previous incident]], which involves police sirens blaring and a woman screaming is [[BlackComedy darkly hilarious]], and it's made even better when he simply gives the camera a SlasherSmile shortly after.

** Whenever the birds were trying to figure out how to get their eggs back, Chuck suggested that they replace the kids, which is pretty coldhearted. But when he says "Ladies, get ''BU-SY!''" while thrusting his pelvic, ''that's'' when it's funny. It's absolutely hysterical that a [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids PG-rated]] movie about ''Franchise/AngryBirds'' got away with this joke.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The rather out-of-place ShoutOut to the Grady Twins from ''Film/TheShining'' when Red opens a door in King Pig's castle.

** Red landing headfirst in an egg and saying, "It’s A Boy!" This crosses the line enough on its own, but as WebVideo/CinemaSins said, it’s the bird-equivalent to [[{{Squick}} falling headfirst into a pregnant woman’s vagina]].

** In the same scene, Matilda reading Terence’s…[[DarkAndTroubledPast previous incident, which involves police sirens blaring and a woman screaming]] is [[BlackComedy darkly hilarious]], and it’s made even better when he simply gives the camera a SlasherSmile.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: [[spoiler: Did Mighty Eagle ''really'' pull a TricksterMentor routine on Red, Chuck and Bomb? Or was he lying in an effort to make himself look good? It warrants noting that Red doesn't believe the claim for a second.]]

*** Similarly, the scene where he uses binoculars to [[PeepingTom spy on an old lady in a bathtub]] becomes this because of Zeta, and PsychoExGirlfriend doesn’t even begin to describe her.

** The painting that Red made of him slingshotting Leonard away became funnier in retrospect thanks to VideoGame/AngryBirds2, which features Leonard as one of the playable characters.

** The FinalBattle where the birds use the iconic slingshot from the games. In particular, Red launching himself into King Pig's castle.

* {{Squick}}: The "Lake of Wisdom" scene: Inmediately after a scene of Bomb and Chuck drinking and swimming in the lake, Mighty Eagle is shown [[spoiler: urinating in the water for a long time, much to the horror of the three main characters]].
* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: The Mighty Eagle being washed-out and overweight after everyone looks up to has been criticized for being copied plot elements from ''WesternAnimation/SurfsUp'' where the Mighty Eagle is also a basically like "Big Z". [[TropesAreTools Even though the trope has long existed before the said movie came out]].

* VideoGameMoviesSuck: A minor case. Though not necessarily bad, it has received mixed reviews from critics and has only a 73% on Rotten Tomatoes, with an average rating of a 5/10 (Which is ''still'' pretty high as far as video game movies go... or it was, before the release of Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020).

* WTHCastingAgency: Downplayed with Terrence: while it's strange that ''Creator/SeanPenn'' was chosen to play him, seeing as he's TheQuietOne, Penn himself has has been known to have anger issues of his own, so the jokes work on another level.

** A gif of Red growing up alone became a meme making fun of someone for something unpopular they said/did.

* NothingIsScarier: PlayedForLaughs during Terence’s…incident in Anger Management Class. It could still be a bit jarring, however (see NightmareFuel).

** Terence’s reason for being in Anger Management Class was so bad that they couldn’t show what he did. This is chilling enough, but the way it’s presented is even worse, as we get the [[SarcasmMode lovely]] sounds of women screaming along with police sirens. Also, Terence seems to be proud of this, as he gives us a SlasherSmile.

* & Film/TheShining parody scend is a bit unsettling and unexpected.

** Judge Peckinpah wasn’t the first Angry Birds character to stand on another character to make himself taller. The Bird-ified version of [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] did the same thing with '''two''' pigs back in VideoGame/AngryBirdsStarWars.

* SoOkayItsAverage: The general consensus is along the lines of this, seeming to have a flaw for every good thing about the movie. [[VideoGameMoviesSuck As far as movies based on video games that were released before Sonic the Hedgehog go, however]], that's saying something.

* DesignatedHero: Red is interestingly a back-and-forth example of this. The first scene and the jury show him clearly mistreated and isolated from the others, providing also a sad background of him being bullied and having no parents. That said, he is shown acting like a complete JerkAss both around Matilda (who, unlike the judge, is ''not'' treating him unfairly) and the others, who are outcasts just like him, and defies every one of their attempts to befriend him (albeit in a polite manner). When the pigs come, he gets immediately antagonizing due to a wrong-doing. He ''is'' right about the fact that they destroyed his house (although unwillingly), and no one is offering to help repair it; however, he did something similar by destroying the puppet Chuck made (willingly), and he never offers to Chuck any help. Chuck even lampshades the analogy, and that goes over his head (though to be fair, Chuck does drop the whole thing with his puppet and later him and others after his "funeral" step on the puppet without second, and also Red does apologize in a DeletedScene at the banquet). Then he spends a good chunk of the movie being antagonistic toward the pigs due to this personal wrongdoing and pointing every single difference between them as ominous. After his meeting with Mighty Eagle, however, he steps into a decidely heroic role, becoming TheLeader for the birds as a whole, facing personally the pigs to retrieve the eggs and risking his life to recover the one egg that Mighty Eagle doesn't recover.
