The whole family will be full of laughs watching Mr. Popper, a driven businessman who is clueless when it comes to the important things in life until he inherits six, “adorable” and mischievous penguins.
As Mr. Popper quickly gets acquainted with – and increasingly attached to – his winged roommates, his life quickly unravels: the deal he’s long been working on with a formidable socialiate, Mrs. Van Gundy, played by the acclaimed Angela Lansbury (Murder She Wrote, Beauty and the Beast), is derailed and Popper almost lands in jail.

MR. POPPER’S PENGUINS is based on a novel, originally published in 1938, written by the husband and wife team of Richard and Florence Atwater.

My Take:
I love Jim Carrey. I have been a fan of his from his "in living color" days. There is just something about him that screams "funny". We watched MR. POPPER’S PENGUINS as a family a little while ago, and it was nice to sit together to watch a family movie.
We popped some pop corn, and I made cookies. And we sat together to watch the film. This move was very cute, my daughter just loved the penguins. I am happy to say my daughter sat and watched the entire film. She has a short attention span (she gets that from her mommy) but she really liked the movie and did not move from her seat.
She even asked to watch it again, and we let her watch it before she went to be. I am sure we will be watching this for years to come.
So I would recommend Mr Poppers Penguins for the family. If you are looking for a DVD to buy for a holiday gift, this is a great gift idea. For young and old. And whoever is a Jim Carrey fan, like I am :)
