Happy Feet

This is a great movie for the kids. I mean, how could you go wrong? It has adorable penguins singing and dancing to a cornucopia of different pop music classics. I can tell you one thing, this isn't a movie that I would want in the house. I couldn't imagine how torturous it would be to have to hear these over and over and over again. Barney was bad enough, The Wiggles even worse, but this would drive me to absolute madness.

One of the interesting things for me were the topics the movie addressed. From social acceptance, stereotyping, environmentalism, utilizing your creative abilities, dissent and going against the norm. This movie was cram packed with various moral and social issues. It was a stark contrast; on one side you had brainless dancing and cuteness and on the another you had an intellectual feast. One thing I know for sure, this movie just inspired millions of kids to grow up to be environmentalist. Which isn't a bad thing, but it probably won't help the push for more oil drilling in Alaska.

All and all, an alright movie. Great for the kids, so-so for the adults.
