1 out of 5 stars Caution: Not for young kids!   December 20, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

To those who say a PG rating should be enough to warn parents, my daughter loves tap dancing and this film was marketed in such a way as to appear to be "harmless fun" aimed at little kids. Fortunately, we only borrowed this movie from the library...but our 4 year old said "no - I don't want to watch it - it is too scary!" Turns out she had already seen it in pre-school, and she was right - it is not a movie for young kids. My wife and I watched it after putting our daughter to bed, and while it might not be too scary for older kids, this is nothing I'd go out of my way to expose my kids to. There are many dark aspects to this film, and we found it a waste of time at best! If you still want to check it out, save your money and do it at a library instead!


1 out of 5 stars A Terrible Waste of Time   December 17, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I really enjoy good animation, and I own nearly everything on the market. But Happy Feet is a terrible piece of work and I regret wasting the time I spent watching it. In essence, I think they are trying to fry too many fish at one time. And seriously, Spanish-speaking penguins? This is over the top even for me, an avid liberal with a degree in environmental law. I absolutely hated this film.


5 out of 5 stars Happy...Happy...Happy Feet!!!   December 7, 2008
Happy Feet is a great movie! It is one of the better movies that I have seen in the year of 2006. It has a great cast, funny characters, and great songs too!

My addvice, buy Happy Feet! It's a great movie for the whole family!



5 out of 5 stars Happy Feet is Entertaining   December 7, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Personally, I though that Happy Feet was a pretty good animated movie. It has a great cast and a very good story to go along it. Robin Williams is very funny as he plays Lovelace & Ramon.

The animation of Happy Feet is some of the best that I have seen in an animated movie. The story also has a great message about our enviroment as well. All this and much much more!

Trust me, you'll flip over this amusing and funny animated movie! So what are you waiting for? Bu this DVD. It's affordable and you get a lot of entertainment value with it! Buy now and enjoy!



2 out of 5 stars I think kids would be bored with this film. I think it's more focused on an environmental issue   November 30, 2008
Musically, this isn't for kids. That should have been figured out by everyone right away. Many of the songs (many which are sexually suggestive) are 20 to 40 years old anyway. The kind of music that we use to listen to when we were kids. But, to me, I'd rather our kids listen to sexy songs instead of today's angry songs.

And one moment in the film Mumbles is being singled out as if something is wrong with him because he's different. This could have been a discussion similar to telling a child that he's wrong for being gay.

But, the entertainment of this musical film changes when it suddenly becomes a message about our endangered environment. We're taking away all the fish so the penguins are having a harder time to survive. In my opinion, the best way to reduce the amount of starving penguins in this world is to hunt them too. I wouldn't mind trying a penguin sandwich, or try penguin soup. And how would we prepare a meal with a penguin? Should it be broiled, boiled, or fried? Or steamed penguin meat with broccoli on rice? How about breaded and fried, and dipped in Ranch dressing? I wonder how penguin meat would be on a cracker with cheese. Umm, how about penguin enchiladas? I'd be happy to try anything on my plate if it would help to balance our ecology.

"I'd like to have one McPenguin burger with fries and a coke, please." Maybe we can give the fish a break and try eating more penguin. Could that help the environment?
