Cute dancing penguins make my daughter happy.
That being said, I was shocked at the stereotypes, the long winded "green" message even calling humans "aliens", the complete mishmash of a musical score including sexual innuendos, and most of all by the class system portraying penguins speaking English with over the top Spanish accents.
The messages to kids (whom this is directly marketed to) were anti-religion, pro-individualism/ non-confomity (not that there's anything wrong with that!") C'm,on the father was so embarrassed! They started with the factual journey of the Emperor Penguin, then changed the story line to include monogamy, brothers and sisters...
This was a kids' movie with a strikingly liberal agenda, and I felt used! Shame on them!!!
