Synopsis

An island is home to a population of happy, flightless birds—or nearly so. Among them are Red, a bird known for his short temper, the quick-witted Chuck, and the easily agitated Bomb, who have long been considered outsiders in this idyllic setting. When mysterious green piggies arrive on the island, it falls to these misfit birds to uncover the pigs' intentions.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 855+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

Box Office

2016 · Box office

💰 Box-office hit — grossed 4.8× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
