Title: NOT a happy go lucky kiddie movie
Review: We were going to buy this for our 2 1/2 yr old's easter basket but thank goodness I saw it on a recent flight! We will NOT be buying it for our child - ever.Yes, the animation is fantastic and the penguins are oh-so cute, but that can only carry so much weight.Nicole Kidman's breathy, Marilyn Monroe-ish voice was annoying. And then there was Robin Williams with 2 parts -oy vey!But the worst part was the over the top drama that has no place in a children's movie - Mumble was shunned by his penguin society, then "rescued" and "brainwashed" at a zoo -- DEPRESSING!!!!Social commentary can be (and has been) seamlessly woven into movies time and time again but didn't work here in its heavy handed way.Save your money!
