Rating: 6/10 (30 November 2006)

Happy Feet is a fun flick that should appeal to the whole family. The toe tapping rhythms will make you want to get up and dance. Children will enjoy the clever animation and fun music. The story is a bit too detailed for younger children but the older members of the family will follow it. The love story is endearing and the adventure is thrilling. There are also several highly amusing comedy bits. On the downside, the the plot drags a little, and the movie is longer than what most children will sit through. There are also several things which go unexplained, however they are not major plot points, only small annoyances. If you liked March of the Penguines, you'll love this movie. Even if you didn't like March of the Penguines, Happy Feet still offers plenty to enjoy. Overall this is a fun movie, and it makes for a pleasant movie going experience.
