Happy Feet Two Audience Reviews

Console best movie i've ever seen.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Paul Waaben Ammentorp A new Happy Feet film? Oh dear, I was really surprised that George Miller, decided to actually make a sequel of the lovely, singing (and dancing) penguins. But can I hate him for that? No way! Happy Feet is one of my all time favorite animated films, so I was defiantly going to watch this. And I gotta say, the movie still leaves a smile on me. This is a spoiler review, so be aware.So Mumble has a son, and we already learn that he is going through some small difficulties, about being different. But that's only in the beginning. Later on, it's like that he had what he needed all along, but it's as if they wanted us to remember, how Mumble was feeling in the first film. I was afraid that they would give us, the same kind of plot from the previous movie. Thankfully, we don't. Erik just needs to find something, that can prove to himself that he does have some talent. And by doing that through the new character, Sven, he leads us to new stories that caught me interested, as we get to see humans again.And now to the other plot of the movie. The penguins of the Emperor Penguin world are stuck, behind a gigantic glacier and they need to get them out of there. By doing so, the movie shows us how the different breeds of penguins helps them out, the power of teamwork with not just the same race, but along with the walruses too, in which the conflict between Mumble and the walrus, Bryan, seemed to have made something.Also, the sub-plot of Will and Bill the Krills are adoring. Its good to see that certain characters in the movie, wants to learn more about the situations they live in, and are prepared for. The movie is well made to be loved, by all family members. But it's as if they didn't think, of a reasonable plot to give some morals to the audience. They make sure that the audience do understand it, and that's good. But whenever I just compare it to the first film, it's clear that they were perhaps having a bit difficulty, of how to progress this film.I have to say though, the songs in this movie is performed extraordinary, in which I get shivers down my spine each time. And I always love when movies can make certain impacts on me, so that's why that this is still a fun and lovable movie for me. They teach us more morals that we can understand, and it's well enough made for children to understand that too. It's not a bad movie, but I think they could have worked better on some things.
brchthethird The story this time around is a little more unfocused, with some superfluous characters, but the animation is just as impressive and voice cast is expanded in this sequel to the Academy Award-winning HAPPY FEET. In HAPPY FEET TWO, Mumble and Gloria have a son Erik who is having difficulty finding his place in the community. Will he sing? Will he dance? He doesn't know. Meanwhile, shifting Arctic ice traps the majority of the Emperor penguin colony and Mumble goes to off to find help. What I noticed as different this time was that there wasn't as much singing/dancing. This was an element that really enriched the first one and made me enjoy it a little more. The story in this sequel had less of that, and at times was a little dull and borderline depressing. Still, there is a happy ending because, you know, it's a kid's movie. Also, while it was nice to have a larger cast full of recognizable voices, a couple of the characters they play were largely unnecessary and distracting to the overall story-line. The two biggest offenders, despite how entertaining they were to watch, were Brad Pitt and Matt Damon as two krill. Why were they in the movie? Who knows? They never interacted with the main story in any meaningful way, and just seemed like an excuse to get a couple more big-name actors on the marquee. A little more understandable in terms of the themes is the inclusion of a puffin named Sven, who can fly. His primary function is to provide inspiration and guidance to Erik although, as penguins (and the audience) already know, they can't fly even if they wanted to. Despite the character being somewhat unneeded, Hank Azaria did a great job voicing him. The rest of the voice cast, some of which were replacements (Common for Fat Joe, and P!nk for Brittany Murphy), also did a good job, but P!nk was probably the least compelling of them all. She's a decent singer, but her acting could definitely use some work. Overall, the film was slightly less entertaining than its predecessor, but nonetheless enjoyable in its own right.
kenchu Stunning visuals and beautiful animation, but the story is flimsy and incoherent. Half an hour in it still doesn't quite know which direction to go.Happy Feet Two has some good moments. I really enjoyed the part when Sven was introduced. I thought the film would revolve around him and Erik more. It's obvious Erik adores Sven, while being upset with his father. That's a perfect foundation for a good story, but this direction is never really explored. Instead the film shifts its focus entirely when the huge ice sheet imprisons the other emperor penguins. I thought that was odd.What's even odder are the krill. The film spends so much time on them, yet they never really come into contact with any character of importance. What was the point having them at all? It just adds to the film's lack of direction.I was disappointed in this sequel. It feels like the story has so many fundamental problems that should have been easily spotted during the drafting phase. It's a mystery to me how they decided to go with this. What a waste of excellent animation and image quality.
benitobananas-1 This is a really nice movie - with lovable characters, great voice (Robin Williams is hilarious as Ramon) acting, good animation and music.The story is sweet, and I have to say my 2 yr old boy can't get enough. I've now seen the beginning of the movie at least 5 times, and it's still enjoyable.No idea why it's only got a 5.8 rating here. I'm giving it a 10 to bump it up a bit.If you've got a young boy, I guarantee he'll love it - and you'll be entertained yourself.
