Kindhearted technology-firm executive Liam Cadegan (Harry Hamlin) is worried about his professional future--to say nothing about the welfare of his family--when his company is taken over by a conglomerate known for its ruthless weeding out of "weaklings." As the company's new vice-president of community relations, Monica advises head man Harlow (Grant Albrecht) that it would be good P.R. if he were to sponsor the Special Olympics, in which Liam's own handicapped son is a contestant. Instead, the selfish and manipulative Harlow orders his executives to attend a fiercely competitive weekend retreat, in which "survival of the fittest" is the order of the day. Fortunately for Liam, the retreat is being stage-managed by Monica's fellow angel Tess (Della Reese), who has a few fascinating "survival" ideas of her own. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
In the world of the emperor penguin, a simple song can mean the difference between a lifetime of happiness and an eternity of loneliness. When a penguin named Mumble is born without the ability to sing the romantic song that will attract his soul mate, he'll have to resort to some fancy footwork by tap dancing his way into the heart of the one he loves. Directed by Babe mastermind George Miller, Happy Feet tells the tale of one penguin's quest for love, and features an all-star cast of vocal talent that includes Robin Williams, Hugh Jackman, Elijah Wood, Nicole Kidman, and Brittany Murphy. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
