SunnyHello Nice effects though.

PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

adonis98-743-186503 Mumble's son, Erik, is struggling to realize his talents in the Emperor Penguin world. Meanwhile, Mumble and his family and friends discover a new threat their home -- one that will take everyone working together to save them. Happy Feet Two is a sequel we didn't ask and we unfortunate got and the end result is long and boring and it's plot is like Ice Age 2 but the boring version instead. The animation is great and so is the voice cast but that isn't enough for to make a well structured movie. (5/10)

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) Even if there is tons of that like in this film here. I liked the first film mostly for the charm and emotional story lines, for example the one about Mumble and his dad. This sequel, which came out five years after the first, lacks completely in that area. They tried to do the same as in the first film (that won the Best Animated Feature Oscar) in some areas, for example they included once again a mix of live action and animation with the animation being the far dominant part. However, this turned out a disappointment. Not even the small fluffy penguins were a delight anymore as they were written so annoyingly with stupid rap songs and without the slightest ounce of obedience to their elders. Talking about the music, it was really really bad early on, but got a bit better as the film went wrong. Still I heavily object to the casting of Pink here. In terms of voice acting, she adds nothing to this movie, simply because she never does it. All she does is sing and her loud scratchy voice did not bring any emotion that this film was so badly in need of. She even sort-of destroyed the final scene with her rendition of Queen's "Under Pressure". As an animal choir the way it started I liked it, but then she started singing and all the magic was gone.This movie was shout completely at the Annie Award (animation Oscar) that year and that says it all. It is a bit of a joke this film had 3 directors and 6 writers and this is what they came up with. Truly embarrassing. The core filmmaker was also the one who directed the first "Happy Feet" movie and he is otherwise mostly known for directing "Mad Max" (the old and the new). What a strange collection of movies he worked on. It does not get any further apart than "Mad Max" and "Happy Feet". One of the film's intended most emotional moments was when the walrus is trapped and Mumble goes to rescue him, so he can reunite with his children. Sadly, the execution really took out all the emotion for some reason. This could have been so much more. Apart from that, this scene made it obvious that the walrus would return the favor at some point later in the movie and now this film was not only void of any heart, but also fairly predictable. The film gets a bit better after the 30-minute-mark, but that does not mean that it becomes a quality movie, just that it really really sucked early on.Another oddity in here is the inclusion of Brad Pitt and Matt Damon as voice actors. I wonder what they were thinking including the duo as krill. I guess they only wanted to advertise the film with these two superstars as their characters basically had nothing to do at all with Mumble and the gang. It was like they were in their own movie, even more extreme than with Scrat and the "Ice Age" films. And Bill's and Will's storyline adds absolutely nothing to this sequel here. So far, there is no news yet about a third "Happy Feet" installment and I do not really think it is necessary unless they somehow manage to come up with something a lot better than they achieved here. The director is busy anyway right now with the "Mad Max" sequel, but who knows. Between film 1 and 2, also a lot of time went by.Another weakness is that the film takes itself so seriously at times and then again is so goofy and childish on other occasions. You really don't know what to think of that. For example there are really all kinds of musical styles in here from rap music to almost opera music or stuff you would expect in "Les Misérables". The only truly positive thing here was the animation. The finale was mesmerizing to watch actually and that was only on a small computer screen. But as I wrote in the title: This is not enough.

MrChe How can you not laugh when there are two lunatics like Will (Brad Pitt) and Bill (Matt Damon) giving their voices to two strange krill who are stepping out of the ordinary life they got used to and lived by it.As I have looked upon the grade given by IMDb people I was skeptic at first, thinking how can this low grade movie be fun, boy was I wrong. It really is funny, interesting, lot's of interesting music, music that you recognize etc...Who is up for some laugh this is definitely movie for you, especially when you have that two krill that will make you laugh, I know I laughed hard. I give it 7 because it lack depth of story, some moments were rushed, on and all definitely watchable.

manendra-lodhi Both the films were a disappointment from me. The first one was more depressing than this one. However the only thing I found cogent in this was the story line was somewhat reasonable. The first part was utterly disgusting. What I think now the primary reason for my disliking the film to be the dancing along with those irritating voices of singing songs together. The film cannot be liked by a mass audience and can be liked by a special category only. Looking on the positive side it is unquestionable that the animated penguins looked to be lifelike. I have not seen such lifelike characters before. All in all for me this dancing musical series is a great disappointment for animation fans."Watch at your own risk."
