What a Great Movie ...


Tonight I went to the movies with Ms H and Beetle ... we went to see Happy Feet.

I simply can not say enough about this movie ... We adored it ... It was fun, funny and a complete blast.

The music in the sound track was wonderful. The voice casting was delightful. And the animation was out of this world ...

We all loved it ... It is a parable about our approach to religion, our approach to the environment, our approach to minorities ...

The story is about a little penguin who unlike the rest of his community, has a heart song that is expressed through dancing rather than singing. Mumble becomes the quintessential out cast who wanders from misadventure through misadventure before coming Home and saving the community. It's a familiar story - but in this movie, it is told in a charming new way ... You can wait till it comes out on DVD, or you can see it on the big scree ... I'd opt for the big screen.

It is a great little film ...

I agree, this was a wonderful movie. It was sophisticated and funny, there were important messages about individualism and the environment, and dare I say, it was damn sexy!
