The primary romantic storyline of Rio is the classic "Odd Couple" trope, elevated by genuine emotional stakes. Blu (voiced by Jesse Eisenberg) is a nerdy, intellectual, fearful bird who has lived his entire life in a climate-controlled bookshop in Minnesota. He is comfortable, risk-averse, and arguably emotionally repressed. Jewel (voiced by Anne Hathaway) is a fierce, independent, street-wise macaw from the jungles of Rio de Janeiro. She is freedom incarnate.
Blu represents the ultimate "safe" male protagonist. Raised in Moose Lake, Minnesota, by the kindly bookstore owner Linda (Leslie Mann), Blu is neurotic, intellectual, and entirely grounded. He does not dream of flight; he dreams of comfort. In the context of romantic storylines, Blu is the "Nice Guy" who believes he is incomplete without a partner but is terrified of the vulnerability required to find one. His romantic worldview is theoretical—he knows about love from books, but he has never felt the visceral danger of it. Rio Sex Comedy 2010 BluRay 720p DTS x264-CHD -PublicHD-

Initially, the relationship is defined by class and cultural clashes. Jewel views Blu as a traitor to his species—a bird that prefers a cage to the sky. Blu views Jewel as reckless and unreasonable. This is the "Meet Cute" turned on its head. There is no love at first sight; there is only annoyance. This friction establishes a realistic baseline for the romance. By having them argue and fail to cooperate, the film creates a desire in the audience to see them succeed.
The film is highly polarizing, described by some as a brilliant, "Evelyn Waugh-style" farce that captures the true, messy spirit of the city. Others, however, have panned it as a "horny mess" with amateurish camera work and insensitive portrayals of Brazilian culture.
