Happy Feet Two Movie Reviews

Nothing much seems to have changed in this cold Antarctic region, since the adorable two-awkward-feet tribe struck the screen. The penguins are in plenty, fights with killer seals and predator birds are still a norm, the Arctic ice still continues to melt. And like its Oscar nominated 2006 prequel, Happy Feet Two has enough food for thought too --- a whole lot of screen time on values, the importance of family, the urge to never give up on hope

Much like Scrat, the acorn-obsessed sabre-toothed squirrel in the 'Ice Age' movies, it's Will and Bill, a pair of shrimp-like krill (voiced by Brad Pitt and Matt Damon) that practically steal 'Happy Feet Two', although they're only side characters in the film's central story. This moralizing sequel to 2006's 'Happy Feet' sees Emperor Penguin Mumble (voiced by Elijah Wood) set off to find his runaway son, after the little fella takes off with two of his pals when he's laughed at

If anything, the dancing penguins don't seem to have two left feet but it does look like those steps must have taken months of practice (on animation). But when the tiny tots take on the stage, set against the backdrop of the dazzling glacial vista of Antarctica, they turn themselves into rockstars. It's only in moments like those that Happy Feet Two comes truly alive, urging the worst dancers among the audience to get up and join them
