One of the most engaging, thought-provoking, and visually astounding films I've seen.

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2006)

When I decided to see "Happy Feet", I was expecting to get another fun, humour-packed animated movie in the style of "Shrek" or "Over the Hedge". This movie was not what I expected. Instead, what I got was one of the most engaging, enjoyable, thought-provoking and visually astounding films since "The Lion King". The characters are believable, the absolute cutting-edge animation makes it seem like you're watching actual penguins at times, and the story provoked feelings I never thought I'd have during a movie about dancing and singing penguins.
Not only that, but it also has a globally-relevant message attached to the whole thing, making Mumble a character who tells us that we can be ourselves and change the world at the same time. Kudos to George Miller for daring to make an animated film that actually has a deeper message.
