What a great fiml, had me up on my feet dancing. My son who is only 2 joined in so I didn't look like a total idiot dancing about the living room. Animiations are fantastic and a great teaching for kids. All my friends and family members have never said a bad word against it, just the right type of present for the christmas season. A film I will have out again and again, maybe not dancing next time though! ...  Read the complete review

Being a lover of anything cute and fuzzy, Happy Feet definitely appeals to my inner child. Having seen it countless times before, and it being on TV for Christmas, I can never watch this film too many times as it always makes me feel happy! Mumble is an emperor penguin.

On first glance, this animated film appears to be definitely one more for children than for adults. That may sound obvious but many animated films often include dialogue that is specifically aimed at a more grown-up audience.

Happy Feet is the story of a penguin who cant sing as well as the other members of his community but is instead born with great dance moves. This is the story of how he tries to help his community, gain acceptance and win over the girl of his dreams. There is a lot more to the story than that, involving generational differences, cultural differences, aliens and the like, but that's the story in essence, going into more detail will simly spoil it. I settled down one Sunday afternoon to watch this with my four year old daughter who is a massive Disney fan. In short, I was left unimpressed, and she was bored about a third of the way in. The animation ...  Read the complete review

I have wanted to see Happy Feet from the time I first saw a clip of it, but never managed to see it at a cinema. Some five months after its UK release, I finally ordered the DVD and it arrived from Amazon earlier this week. I watched the film – then all the extras – then the film again. Here is what I thought of it… FILM The Story Memphis and Norma Jean are two penguins expecting a baby. But when little Mumble hatches from the egg, he is not quite what they were expecting. Penguins attract their mate by singing a heart song, but Mumble cannot sing. Instead, he has Happy Feet, which make him an impressive tap dancer. But his ...  Read the complete review
