Okay for kids, pretty tedious for adults

Rating: 5/10 (1 April 2018)

'Happy Feet' is an innocent enough little movie containing everything you would expect from an animated family picture. Although it may be intended for family viewing, this is a kids' movie through and through and anybody over the age of 10 or 11 will probably struggle to get any pleasure out of it. Sure, there's lots going on, it's vibrant and colourful, there's lots of singing and dancing, but for the average adult there isn't much to enjoy.
Watching films like this makes you appreciate some of the best animated family movies, the ones that contain something for everyone. The likes of 'Ratatouille' and 'The Incredibles' are good examples of movies that people of all ages can sit and enjoy. They have strong plots, memorable characters, and humour that doesn't just appeal to 5 year old. 'Happy Feet' lacks any of those things and soon becomes tedious for the average viewer.
