One of the most entertaining films of 2006

Rating: 8/10 (24 December 2006)

Happy Feet is one of the best animations of the year. It is clever, funny, brilliantly made and has the most outstanding special effects a CGI animation has ever had. The film's animation is so realistic that even the penguins look real.
The film is about penguins living in Antarctica in what they call Emperor Land. It is a tradition for the penguins to use their "heart song" to find their soul mate by singing.
The film's protagonist, Mumble was born tone deaf and cannot sing but has a unique talent for tap dancing, which is looked down upon by the elders of Emperor Land. Mumble is an outcast for his entire childhood and things do not get any better when he becomes a young adult.
He ventures across Antarctica, meeting new friends who accept him as he is. He and his "amigos" face death-defying obstacles. Soon Mumble discovers that there is a shortage of fish in Emperor Land and he and his friends go on a quest to find out what is really happening.
Happy Feet has something for all age groups. It has the cutest penguins you will ever see for the young children, funny scenarios for the older ones, witty and funny one liners for the teenagers and music for the older generation.
Happy Feet is one of the best films of the year and deserves a lot of praise.
