Happy Feet

Happy Feet is an animated musical adventure staring Elijah Wood as the voice of Mumble. It's set in the land of the Emperor Penguins in the heart of Antarctica. These penguins sing their own special heartsong to attract a soul mate. Unfortunately Mumble is the worst singer in the world, but oh can he dance. Mumble stayed true to himself even though no one else approved. In the end he teaches everyone that being unique isn't a burden, it's a gift! My husband and I took our 5 year old daughter to see this movie in the theaters. We all loved it.

For more information check out the Official Site of Happy Feet.

Surf's Up

Surf's Up is an animated comedy staring Shia LaBeouf as the voice of Cody Maverick. It's based on the revelation that surfing was actually invented by penguins. In the film, a documentary crew takes audiences behind the scenes during the Penguin World Surfing Championship. My husband and I took our 5 year old daughter to see this movie in the theaters. We definitely laughed a lot.
