2/4  Happy Feet
Happy Feet is pretty much what you would get if you watched March of The Penguins on acid. Wonderful animation is wasted due to the movies boring story and dreadful, not to mention random musical numbers. Elijah Wood brings no character to... (read full)

1.5/4  Disappointed Brain
This stunningly animated feature starts cute, but quickly disolves into compilation of irritating dance numbers, obnixious characters and preachy environmentalism; a poor choice for the Animated Film Oscar, with wasted voice talent all ar... (read full)

1.5/4  Falls apart when the environmental message appears
In Antarctica, a colony of Emperor Penguins are living peacefully. A female penguin named "Norma Jean" (voiced by Nicole Kidman) finds a mate named "Memphis" (voiced by Hugh Jackman) by singing a "heartsong" ("Kiss" by Prince), to which "M... (read full)

2/4  Happy Feet Not So Happy
I was disappointed by this over-hyped film. I thought the story was shallow and was surprised that they chose raunchy songs for a kids show (since when has anything written by Price been appropriate for kids?) They tried too hard to make... (read full)

1/4  A feet that smells like cheese.
Not that I exepected the animated version of March of the emperor. But at least a funny and watchable momment. Nothing of that. The movie sucks, the voices sucks, the story sucks and is one of the worst CGI animated ever. A waste of money ... (read full)

1/4  great for kids, not so much fun for adults
As a 1st grade teacher last year a lot of my students said they really like this movie and I also had a lot fo adult tell me that this was a cute moive and I should check it out. Well I did check it out and I was bored out of my mind. This... (read full)

2.5/4  Happy Feet Quick Review
Besides the overly simple plot that has been done before (and better) there is little other I can fault. The animation is great, the music works and there are some great sequences. It's too cutesy and sweet, but its diverting enough.

5/5 Posthumous film

I like how Steve Irwin was in this film playing an elephant seal and it's dedicated to his memory.

5/5 Love it more and more
  by Vonetta L. Hill
I have seen this movie over and over again. When it first came out, I didn't want to see, but I am glad that I did. I love the actors that give these characters life. I love the music selections and the scores that were performed during the film. Tap dancing is another form of art and it was amazing that creators can almost make you want to get up and dance right alond with the movie. This movie is a kids movie, but true big kids will love this. It also teaches lessons about our effect on other environments, trusting some one, and following your instincts. What can I say, it was a GREAT MOVIE!!!!!!!!!

2/5 *sigh* Again with penguins . . .
  by Eric S. Kim (Southern California)
So now we're having a deeper fascination with penguins. They're adorable, but this supposed trend is getting overrated. We've got animated films that contain talking penguins (no surprise there). We've got Surf's Up, Madagascar 1 & 2, and now this. Here we have Happy Feet, which is obviously a CGI family film. But what's wrong with it? Well, I can think of a few. First, it's very anti-religious. I'm an agnostic, and I found the overall message to the second half of the movie very insulting. It's like one of those worthless hypocritical messages that you see on The Church Channel; this is just as bad. Second, the songs are very out of place. Many of the songs contain sexual innuendo. I don't care what kids do (they can do whatever they want), but don't you think that this is a bit too much? And lastly, these penguins are so ANNOYING! Everything about them, from their voices to their dancing, is always on the top level of annoyance. But hey, this is still a family feature, and we all love dancing penguins, don't we?

But there is still a plus side for Happy Feet. The animation is really impressive: Antarctica really looks beautiful here. But that's the only good thing about this family film. If you have kids, then watch it with them. You'll have a good time. Otherwise, try to avoid its anti-religious message, and its seemingly nonstop cuteness.
