You should see Happy Feet--not only because it's stupendous, but also because it features the best dancing you'll see on the screen this year.

In a year rich with animation options, Happy Feet stands head and shoulders above its competition.

One of the very best directed animated films on record. Not surprisingly from the force behind the "Babe" movies, the attention to detail is phenomenal, the humor ample.

Offers dazzling cinematic family fun, and a mad medley of tunes.

A moderately adorable, musically wacky, ecologically activist CG family comedy.

Unfortunately, once the "be yourself" story line is resolved (singing and dancing go together, who would have guessed?), the film is only half over.

Let's just say this is a perfect film for penguin lovers who also are devoted members of the Green party - and leave it at that.

Words cannot describe my love of this film. Boasting an entertaining story and unbelievably realistic animation, Happy Feet qualifies as one of the most entertaining animated films I've ever had the pleasure of watching. It's a very heartfelt movie with a theme that blends quite nicely with the amazing story and memorable characters. I would give this film a 20, but unfortunately, the rating only goes up to 10.

It was at least a different kind of a movie. They do look cute. They looked pretty funny dancing.

WHAT I LIKED: The animation is great, and the characters are well developed. All this allows 'Happy feet' to dabble with some great themes and still make it appeal to the whole family. WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: The first half sets up character well, but then the middle doesn't have much going on at all, and the end is a fairly poor, ripped off version of the 3rd act of the classic 'finding nemo' where all the serious themes are hammered home. This akwardness means none of the plot appears to fit together well. VERDICT: The characters keep it going, but 'Happy feet's plot stops it from being a classic animation to remember
