Mr. Popper's Penguins

Description

Who doesn't love Jim Carey in a movie with animals? It's not an accident that Ace Ventura is a Carey-cult favorite; not even the cutest, most adorable of Nature's creatures can upstage the gangly funny man when he's at the top of his game. And let's face it: Jim Carey needs a decent shot at redemption after breaking-up with Jenny McCarthy and failing to captivate audiences with his less-than-thespian portrayal of a gay con-man. Mr. Popper's Penguins promises vintage Carey with a proven plot. "An updated version of the classic 1939 children's classic, this version of Mr. Popper's Penguins features Carey as Tom Popper, ace businessman, who inherits six penguins—alternately represented by real penguins and some genuinely amazing CGI bird-body doubles. Naturally, penguins and professionalism do not mix, and Mr. Popper struggles mightily with his dilemma while the audience discovers—like rubber chickens and Schectady—penguins always are funny…especially when they dance. Maybe best of all, Mr. Popper's Penguins will give smile-starved families a little relief from summer 2011's relentless onslaught of ripped-from-the-comic-books action adventures.

Released in 2012, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days covers the events depicted in third and fourth books of Jeff Kinney: The Last Straw and Dog Days. The last one "realistic fiction" novel got more attention from Wallace Wolodarsky who wrote a screenplay for the movie, and this fact is noticeably reflected in the film's plot. The storyline begins with Greg Heffley and Rowley Jefferson are going to the country club for their summer vacations where due to the unfortunate sequence of developments both of them got into the troubles. Bleak outlook of spending the summer in vain efforts to make some money is rising at the horizon with more and more of clarity. That makes the movie very similar to previous two: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010) and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011) – the hopeless children are showcased as losers trying to do their best. Nevertheless, the play of the cast is outstanding as usual and while watching this sequel you distinctively understand why these seven actor and actress (Zachary Gordon, Karan Brar, Robert Capron, Laine MacNeil, Connor & Owen Fielding and Dalila Bela were nominated the Young Artist Award and some of them ( we mean Laine MacNeil) even won it. By the way, Zachary Gordon's career is moving quite fast, which is led him to the lead role in the 2012 movie Norm of the North, where he plays main protagonist, Norm.
