Happy Feet, a story of a penguin who cannot sing but sure is able to tap dance. In Antarctica, Emperor Penguins sing to each other their Heart Songs to find a mate. However, Mumble, is dropped as an egg which affects his ability to sing.
The movie starts off fairly well, baby Mumble is quite adorable as are the other baby penguins. Quickly though baby Mumble grows up into....a taller version of himself and is voiced by Elijah Wood, thus losing all his adorable.
After becoming the misfit of his class and being forced to sit out at the graduation, Mumble leaves and soon encounters the Adelie Amigo's who befriend him. While with his new friends, he seeks out Lovelace, a rather crazy penguin who will answer a question in return for a pebble. With his new friends and Lovelace, Mumble sets out across the vast land and learns about being true to yourself.
The movie is rather enjoyable, though at times it can drag on a bit. Happy Feet's music and the tap dancing are among the highlights of the film.
