It is a magickal , hillarious and heartfelt movie that I've seen in a long time. It uses Carrey's full comedy abitities with tugging at your heart. I will be sure to purchase this favorite and tell others about it. Laughed from begining to end with kleenex to dry my eyes.

Saw it this past weekend and can't wait to see it again! One of Jim Carey's best films - just so well done and so funny I had tears coming down my face. It's a \"must see\" for all families. In these tough days, it was a pleasure to smile and laugh again. Thank you for producing it!

There is nothing new here, but Mr. Waters, as he showed with the smarter and more daring "Mean Girls" and "Freaky Friday," knows how to keep things buzzing along. Full Review

The-impossible-to-upstage stars are the penguins, a combination of real Gentoos specially trained for the film and some computer-generated counterparts. The special effects gurus blend the two seamlessly, making it easy to believe there was no digital wizardry involved, which is perhaps the niftiest trick of all. Full Review

Predictable, but well-intentioned fun. Full Review

There is something infectious about the old-fashioned innocence of Mark Waters' comedy. Full Review

My heart was warmed by gratuitous moments when Mr. Carrey clowns for clowning's sake - in the best of them, he makes a slo-mo entrance to a press conference, even though the camera is running at normal speed. Full Review
