HAPPY FEET TWO 3D

My son was one very excited little boy when the mailman delivered Happy Feet 2 on Blu-Ray 3D Combo Pack. You see, ever since our son has been old to have a favorite animal he always claimed penguins were his favorite animal…although last year, giant anteaters became his “2nd most favorite”. He has huge stuffed penguins in his room, a penguin pillow pet and he knows all about the habits of penguins…including fun facts like their poop can be pink depending upon what they eat! Seriously…I don’t make this stuff up.

We sat down over the weekend to have family movie night and watch Happy Feet 2 together. None of us had seen it and we really liked the original Happy Feet movie. I loved the all new Blu-Ray 3D combo pack because no matter what type of media player you own there is a movie for you. The Blu-Ray 3D combo packs include a Blu-Ray disc, a DVD disc and a digital download disc. Sadly, we don’t have a Blu-Ray so we watched the regular DVD. So with 2 huge stuffed penguins, a penguin pillow pet, 3 kids and my husband we all sat around the living room to watch Happy Feet 2.

The sequel to “Happy Feet”, the Academy Award®-winning animated smash hit, “Happy Feet Two” returns audiences to the magnificent landscape of Antarctica. Mumble, The Master of Tap, has a problem because his tiny son, Erik, is choreo-phobic. Reluctant to dance, Erik runs away and encounters The Mighty Sven – a penguin who can fly! Mumble has no hope of competing with this charismatic new role model. But things get worse when the world is shaken by powerful forces. Erik learns of his father’s “guts and grit” as Mumble brings together the penguin nations and all manner of fabulous creatures – from tiny Krill to giant Elephant Seals – to put things right.

As expected the music was was engaging and had the kids up dancing around. The visuals were equally stunning (I can only imagine how great it is in 3D). Brad Pitt (voice of Bill the Krill) and Matt Damon (voice of Will the Krill) bring a lot of humor and quirkiness throughout the movie with their character’s antics. I do like how this movie teaches that even something as small as a krill or a young penguin can make a difference in others lives. I also liked the song that Erik sings that tells Bryan to keep striving to make a difference even if the odds seem impossible.

The movie did use some language that we do not allow in our home but our kids were quick to say “we don’t say that word” so I wasn’t real concerned but they use the word “fluff” in place of the big “F” word “Take your little ball of fur and fluff off” and the words “idiot” and “doofus” are also used in name-calling. There are also a few jokes made on several difference occasions about people’s butts.

Overall, the kids loved this movie. Filled with all their favorite Happy Feet characters and new story lines they watched it with great enjoyment. However, from the parental side I was not that impressed with it. Yes, it had some teachable moments about love, determination, parenting, etc. but the story was rather dull and boring to me and my husband. It had too many “messages” being thrown out in it and rather than having one clean, simple story it had packed in lots of mini messages and a non-catching plot. Of course, the kids could have cared less because they were loving the penguins, the ocean animals and of course, the music and dancing.

We also had the opportunity to review the for the Ipad. This is a FREE app that includes a countdown to the release of the Blu-Ray combo, Second Screen, Talking Penguin and a Coloring Book. My son loved the talking penguin the best and spent hours playing around with it. Our daughters loved the coloring book where you can choose from 5 different “ice block” pictures to color and simply shake the Ipad to erase and start all over. The “Second Screen” includes more movie fun with special features such as “How to Walk Like a Penguin”, extra movie clips, interviews and more. For any penguin lover or for a child who loves Happy Feet this is an app you must download.

The Happy Feet 2 Blu-Ray 3D Combo will release on March 13 and will be available for $44.95. It will also be available on digital download from online digital retailers like iTunes, Xbox, PlayStation, Amazon, Vudu and CinemaNow.
