Movie Review: Happy Feet



“Happy Feet” refers to the relief people feel while they shuffle out of this inexplicable mess of a film.

Rating:   C

The movie can’t decide what it wants to be:  one comedic song-lyric heavy showstopping number after another (which, for the most part, works);  a coming-out-of-the-closet story;  or an overbearing political environmentalist message that takes up WAY too much of the movie.

Are there laughs?  Sure.  Most of them will go over kids’ heads — and the adults won’t necessarily be laughing *with* the movie, but at it.  Which is never a good sign.
