      Movies about Penguins.. this takes the biscuit

      Okay the pun is intented, but this is one of THE most wonderfully animated films you could possibly hope to see. The animation is quite simply stunning. As a very very minor drawback, it is a bit long to sit the youngest children through without them getting fidgety, but the film does really appeal to all.

Robin Williams and Elijah Wood will be reprising their roles in the penguin adventure, which is set for release next year (11). It is not known whether Brittany Murphy's character Gloria will be...
