Jamaica here we come: we need this family of Mallards [Ducks] as after an uncomfortable situation and after a couple of conversations; Mack [voice by Kumail Nanjiani:] he is very protective to an anxiety level, whilst his wife Pam [voiced by Elizabeth Banks:] she wants to experience life and not just watch it pass her by. But luckily on whilst we are on this journey/adventure the Mallards will meet some interesting characters such as Chump [voiced by Awkwafina:] she is a pigeon, which is a gang leader of these pigeons in New York City, I wouldn't mess with her; but luckily she knows of somebody that can help this family reach their destination of Jamaica; Delroy [voiced by Keegan-Michael Key:] he is a  scarlet macaw, which without giving too much of the storyline away is currently trapped, so if they want to help they will have to go and release him.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 83 minutes film is good; it has one of those outlays which is designed for a family experience of all age ranges; so any family with children would know it needs to have a storyline which is non-complicated, which it isn't; it is about the journey/adventure and it can't be too long; which it isn't also.

Comedy, action and art; we have a question of what is duck l'orange? Yes we also an answer as well, Mack & Pam are being chased; to give across this busy dance floor with many human beings legs and feet they have the salsa; Across the dance floor [just to cover my back I am presuming it is the dance floor based on it was referenced earlier on;] but this sequence is truly captivating and of a high-quality.

Character developments and voice performances; the character developments are safe and reliable versions of what they are meant to be, but having said that they also excellently and smoothly executed, with also a high-quality/level of voice performances from everyone in this cast; including but not limited to Danny DeVito voice of Uncle Dan/Great uncle; a old Mullard which also goes on this adventure/journey and Carol Kane voice of Erin; she is a great blue heron; comes off as very nice if just comes off as ever so slightly unhinged; but you will have to watch this film to find out why.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; I have decided to award this film another mark based on, it does everything it is set out to do and it is just a pleasant family film; it also has some awards accredited to its name; 1 Winner Michigan Movie Critics Guild Awards 2023 MMCG Award Award for Film Excellence Keegan-Michael Key (actor) Shared with: Wonka · The Super Mario Bros. Movie and 6 Nominees that includes Hawaii Film Critics Society 2024 HFCS Award Best Vocal/Motion Capture Performance Kumail Nanjiani and Annie Awards 2024 Annie Outstanding Achievement for Voice Acting in an Animated Feature Tresi Gazal; voice of Gwen, the youngest member of the Mullards family; her specialty is saying please you may elongated manner.
