It makes you feel like dancing!

Rating: 7/10 (21 April 2007)

If you're a young Emperor Penguin in Antarctica and you can't sing...you're an outcast. Mumble's(Elijay Wood)Dad Memphis(Hugh Jackman)and mom Norma Jean(Nicole Kidman)know that their son is cute, but had no idea he could dance, dance, dance. Mumble is blamed for the lack of nourishing fish in the community, due to his horrible singing voice. He is cast out by the Elders only to find friendship with a posse known as the Adelie Amigos led by Ramon(Robin Williams), who thinks that Mumble's "hippity-hoppity" is the greatest way besides singing to attract available female companionship. Mumble only has eyes for Gloria(Brittany Murphy), the greatest singer in his estranged homeland. Mumble seeks advice from Lovelace the Guru, who joins the dancing youngster and the Amigos to set out on a fact finding adventure. This journey will prove to change Mumble's life; as well as save his community.
This animated musical is endearing and wholesome entertainment for the whole family. Williams also voices the Guru and other's lending voices to characters are: Hugo Weaving, Anthony LaPaglia, Jeffrey Garcia, Chrissie Hynde and the late Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter.
