Americano arrives on June 13
*I received a copy of Americano for this review, however, as always opinions are 100% my own.
Get ready for a south-of-the-border journey, when the animated adventure Americano arrives on DVD, Digital HD and On Demand on June 13 from Lionsgate. This adorable film tells a charming tale of a colorful Mexican parrot named Cuco who sets off on an adventure to defend his family. He has always wanted to do something different than the original acts in the family circus, but when it is threatened he learns just how much family means. I love that it brings the circus to life, but also tells a heartwarming story along with it. This is one that every family needs to watch together and as parents we all need to remember to be proud of our kids more often. The Americano DVD order it from Amazon at a lower price.
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS
Cuco is a Mexican boy parrot that would rather imitate the crazy stunts of his TV parrot superhero, El Americano, than help with his chores at the family bird circus. Yet when a gang of bully birds threatens his ringmaster father and takes over the circus, Cuco sets off on a hilarious and perilous journey to Hollywood to enlist his hero in his fight, only to discover the true hero within himself.
