If Pixar did musicals, this would be it.... January 7, 2008
Lancebastion (stratazon.co.uk)
There are very few cg animated films that meet the standard of Pixar movies. A standard of amazing animation and great storytelling. This film nearly reaches this height and throws in musical elements for good measure.
Is this a kids film or is it an adult movie? Well, it's both. It's the tale of a penguin, who unlike every other penguin, can't sing. Instead he can tap dance, something frowned on by the elders and the parnets.
This film never slows, full of action throughout, with some spectacular set pieces. It's just a joy to watch and only the cold hearted would struggle to enjoy this film.
It perhaps doesn't have quite the emotional depth of Finding Nemo or The Incredibles, but it does have the fun. Light hearted and highly recommended for any age.

Emperor Penguins are born with the ability to sing.. All except poor Mumble who was dropped by his dad when he was still an egg.. So when mumble hatched all he could do was .. tap dance.. Such un-penguin like behaviour gets Mumble kicked out into the cold cruel world,experiencing danger, being alone and different..
But along the way Mumble learns about love and friendship and despite trying to save his own flock and being treated as an outcast by them Mumble goes out to save his fellow penguins and familly from extinction..and truly learn that being yourself makes a lot of difference in the world!!
Picture quality is amazing it's truly a disc to show off the HD DVD format . There's hardly any grain or colour saturation. its literally picture pristine perfect and the CGI detailing and animation is just top quality!
I was surprised around near the end of the film they mix in live action too.
Theres lots of singing in this with a mixture of well known pop, rock, disco, latin and hip hop songs all redone and resung for this movie. Along with the amazing voice talents this is an audio treat for your sound system and ears! (Elijah Woods, Hugh Jackman, Robin Williams, Nicole Kidman and Hugo Weaving to name a few)
I was slightly put off by the Elvis sounding penguin father and the singing (in general) at first, but around the middle of the movie the tone changes from being light hearted as it gets more serious and dark as mumble gets kicked out from the security of his flock and encounters danger from humankind and other giant mamals.
All the extras and the film all come on one sided disc (for the UK/European version) The American's have a combo disc so if you don't like flipping the disc around stick with the UK one.
The extra's include:
2 Addition sequences
Behind the scenes
creating the tap
learn to tap dance
spannish lessons
3 music videos
classic warner brothers cartoon - I love to Singa
Overall the kids will surely love this as mumble and friends will provide enough charm and entertainment to warm the kids hearts.
The picture and sound is enough to please the "Bigger Kids" who likes to show off their cinema audio visual systems.
