Mumble’s son, Erik, is struggling to realize his talents in the Emperor Penguin world. Meanwhile, Mumble and his family and friends discover a new threat their home — one that will take everyone working together to save them.

One of the greatest problems that exist for movie sequels, is will the sequel be able to catch the same magic that the original movie did? As we all know there are many reasons why a movie sequels fail the key reasons being that some key actors did not reprise their roles or that there was no new sense of urgency to drive the plot forward. All though tragically Brittany Murphy was unable to reprise her role as Gloria in Happy Feet 2 fortunately the only noticeable difference between Brittany Murphy and Pink’s portrayal of Gloria was their singing style.
Director George Miller delivered a visually spectacular and heart warming story, the kind of thing that parents should take the time to watch with their children.
I also found the journey of self-discovery that secondary characters Will and Bill the Krill went on to be thought provoking and intensely funny.
