Happy Feet (DVD) Reviews

When it comes to movies I love a good horror or thriller but the other day me and my mate were right down in the dumps and I took a look through my collection and spotted this film I hadn't seen in ages but that she'd never seen and when I asked her if she'd ever seen it and said no I was determined she'd see this as I knew she'd laugh ...  Read the complete review

Plot This is the story of a little penguin named Mumble. Mumble wasn't what you would call a normal penguin, he is born with no singing voice but has a very alien talent to the penguin world, Tap Dancing, But because he has no singing voice it means he has no heart song, which his parents worry at for a penguin with no heart ...  Read the complete review

Absurdly-ingenious film I have ever watched! (Brilliant stuff) Am not a keen lover of animation films unless they are Disney creations. However, I slipped right into this film as soon as I began watching the trailer of it. Special effects in films whether they are animated or not, can sometimes destroy the imagination but ...  Read the complete review

I got this film a couple of years ago now, after not actually asking for it, ot showing any interest in the film at all I was plesently surprised at whoever had the thought of buying for me. This film is all about a little penguin called mumble. So called because unlike any of the other emporer penguins in his colony, he can't ...  Read the complete review

Happy Feet is a cool and cuddly animated comedy film that you will find it hard not to like as it is a great musical film with dancing penguins so whats not to like? It is the ultimate feel good movie, apparently Emperor penguins are born able to sing however Mumble, whose voice is provided by Elijah Woods, has not been ...  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. Emperor penguins are supposed to be born to sing - but ...  Read the complete review

Aww how cute was this film. I had only just watched it out of chance that someone mentioned it at work and i hadnt seen it so he bought it in for me. This film is so interesting at the same time entertaining because it is built on some true facts of the penguin mating system. The penguins attract their mates through singing ...  Read the complete review

Happy feet is set in an Antarctic emperor penguin colony where an ability to sing is crucial as every penguin must have a 'heartsong' to attract a mate. If the female likes a male and his heartsong fits with hers and helps complete it then the two will mate. It is assumed this premise is based on the fact that emperor couples ...  Read the complete review

His behaviour get him booted out of his land and hes left by himself. He is soon joined by 5 spanish? friends, and a penguin named Lovelace. Lovelace claims to have been spoken to by ...  Read the complete review

Short of The Beatles' Yellow Submarine, Happy Feet has to be one of the most wonderfully strange animated films ever made. I went in expecting a fairly generic but entertaining animated film with cute anthropomorphised animals, and was instead treated to one of the oddest premises for any film, animated or not, about a dancing ...  Read the complete review

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. However, there is little of that dialogue in this film and when you add in the cute fluffy penguins, you have ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

A glimpse of the movie: In the era of animation movies happy feet is as common as any other animation work yet it stands apart from the crowd! It is not just another animation flick but it is a package of entertainment that will lead you crying, rolling with laughter and bound to tap your feet to the rocking ...  Read the complete review

This is a brilliant animated film and definately not one that's just for the kids. The film is based around the adventures of one little penguin, Mumble, who has a rough start in life. All penguins are supposed to sing to find their mate but Mumble can't sing. Mumble however, can dance but the other penguins think this is just ...  Read the complete review

Happy Feet is about dancing and singing penguins who all find their boyfriend/ girlfriend through song. However, a penguin is born but he can't sing, all he can do is tap dance. The film is very good but the plot is very thin and simple. The voice overs are very good and coupled with the animation it makes you feel like ...  Read the complete review

In the great nation of the Emperor Penguins, deep in the heart of Antarctica, you're nobody unless you can sing - which is unfortunate for Mumble, played by Elijah Wood, who just happens to be completely and utterly tone deaf. Mumble's talent lies in dancing, but according to the Penguin world, dancing is for sissy's and a talent to be ...  Read the complete review

I'm sorry, I know I'm going to get flamed for writing this review as people will insist I'm being an old fuddy-duddy I'm sure. But I thought this film was bordering on obscene and completely inappropriate for my four year old grandson to be watching. I was especially upset when he asked me what "making love" was and if the ...  Read the complete review

Happy Feet! I remember this film being released back in 2006. It was the talk of the TV and very popular with the children. The film was produced in Australia and was computer animated. The film was based on penguins and their lives in Antarctica. Each of the penguins learns to sing a song which apparently helps ...  Read the complete review

A friend asked me if I had seen Happy Feet and I told them no. They said it was brilliant and I think I replied with something along the lines of "That's nice". I had no intention of watching the film. Dancing Penguins? Come on. But I was then drinking round at the friend's house one night and she convinced me to take her ...  Read the complete review
