Rio: Music From the Motion Picture Reviews
| 15 of 16 people found the following review helpful:  We loved it!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Rio: Music From The Motion Picture (MP3 Download) This soundtrack features the two main rhythms of Rio de Janeiro, Samba and Bossa Nova, and blends traditional and current music. Besides, it pleases both parents and children (my 3 year old son loves dancing to the sound of "I Want to Party"). As others have mentioned, you need to watch the movie before you buy this soundtrack. In my opinion this is the best animated film soundtrack I've ever seen. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: Beatiful and fun music!, By Mercedes (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Rio: Music From the Motion Picture (Audio CD) I enjoyed the movie but I enjoyed the music even more.
