Het verhaal speelt zich af in de wereld van de Keizerspinguïns op Antarctica. Deze pinguïns zingen, ieder zijn eigen lied, om partners aan te trekken. Helaas is Mumble, de zoon van Memphis en Norma Jean, de slechtst denkbare zanger. Dit probeert hij echter te compenseren met zijn uitzonderlijke tapdans-kwaliteiten. (Warner Bros. Pictures)

Pretty boring for a cartoon. I could have used a bit more cuteness, originality, and above all humor. ()
Although constant singing can be maddening at times, the surprising story and amazing animation outweigh it. When I take the story about singing and dancing at face value, it is a surprisingly lively spectacle with a few unexpected twists. The animation is a complete fairy tale, where every downhill ride is an unforgettable adventure and the snowstorm is a captivating experience. P.S.: The continuous singing becomes even more annoying the second time around. The transformation of the main character, along with the dancing and especially the voice acting of Elijah Wood and Hugh Jackman, saves practically everything. ()
Happy Feet is a classic story for kids (even though in places it gets pretty adult). About growing up and the like. Nothing special. Apart from the marvelously chosen voices of the main penguins and the EXCELLENT music from John Powell which takes everything a level higher. In terms of animation, HF is a little up and down and scenes of genius like the blizzard or the aquarium are alternated by downright ordinary seals or elephant seals. But this turned out to be simply a much, much better movie than I was expecting. And I happen to really like penguins. :-). ()
It's so beautiful, the animation is great, the music is also excellent, great voices have been chosen, but still, it didn't totally get under my skin, even though at the end, it really tried hard. Maybe the excessive effort to show how beautiful nature is bothered me. Similarly, I found it difficult to accept the real actors in the movie. ()
