![]() ![]() And no, Happy Feet is far from the Christianity that I know and love. Besides - even if "Happy Feet" was an allegory of Christianity, it's a pretty accurate reflection, isn't it?Ĭhristians like me, huh? I'm not the one passing judgment on someone you don't know. It's "Christians" like you that make people attack Christianity. Stay away from this film and tell others to do the same. There’s nothing like paying someone to insult you! Do NOT make he same mistake. My biggest disappointment other than having wasted an evening that could have been spent in a much more enjoyable way, was having rewarded Hollywood for this attack on me. This building wasn't necessary in the film, except for the movie makers' not-so-subtle agenda.Ĭhristians, don't be suckered in by penguins, Robin Williams' brilliant voice-overs, and incredible animation. A church.in a fishing outpost in the antarctic. It was very uncomfortable to watch adult and children penguins singing "You don't need to be beautiful to turn me on, I just need your body, baby, from dusk til dawn" and jamming to the very inappropriate "Let's Talk About Sex, Baby."Īnd then, to top off the attack on Christianity, the first building you see when Mumble and his friends come across the human fishing outpost is a dilapidated (obsolete?) Christian church with a cross on top, followed by scenes of garbage floating in the ocean. In fact, this movie has a LOT to say about sex.and a lot to sing about it too. The film actually depicts this character leaving his pulpit to go to the couch with four females, and he asks "Which one of you will be first?" On his journey to discover the true reason why the fish supply is dwindling, he meets a televangelist-like penguin who accepts payment for words of wisdom and then hooks up with multiple penguins. I'm surprised Mumble didn't come "out" by the end of the movie as a homosexual penguin. Christians aren't accepting of people different from ourselves, won't allow them to be a part of our church, and are harsh and judgmental. They actually make him choose to "turn or burn." He must "repent" of his ways and conform to their traditional views. These elders look more like vultures than penguins and are clearly representing the pious leaders of the Christian church. He is ostracized from the "elders" and blamed for the food shortage because their god wouldn't approve of his alternative lifestyle. ![]() The main character, Mumble, is different from others because he dances instead of sings. It was an overtly political movie about environmentalism and humanism over Christianity. This was nothing but a two-hour crusade against Christianity. Not with the cute penguins and amazing animation, which were indeed very well done, but with being assaulted the entire time. My wife and I took our two children and niece to see Happy Feet last night, lured by the promise of an endearing tale of penguins (my daughter's favorite animal) and amazing animation. ![]()
