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.

A dream team within a one movie - Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin -impress with the incredible chemistry between members of this trio. Stand Up Guys director Fisher Stevens climbed into the territory of crime-comedy thrillers about gangsters mocking gangsters. Nonetheless Stand Up Guys is not a spoof of Pulp-Fiction-like movies, it has its own tint, and there is the place for seriousness too. The story begins when Val (impersonated by Al Pacino, a well-known American author gained his fame by his memorable roles in The Devil's Advocate, Heat, Scent of a Woman, The Godfather, Scarface) is being released from "the big house" after serving 28-years sentence. His mate, Doc (played by Christopher Walken, previously starred in A Late Quartet, Seven Psychopaths, Balls of Fury and Man of the Year) is eager to meet him at the walls of the penitentiary. Doc has two reasons for cheery embraces for his old pal. Doc was given a task to kill Vic. The assignment was made by the local kingpin Claphands (played by Mark Margolis: Beneath, Noah, The Courier, Black Swan), who is dreaming about revenge for his son's accidental death accusing Vic for this. Nevertheless, Vic is aware about Doc assignment, and first thing buddies want do to is to visit the local cathouse ( it's a second reason), where the mess begins: alcohol, drugs and Viagra overdose ignites the chain of events buddies can't control.
