Although the plot is not a cliché, but it is difficult to surprise the audience, but the movie is quite successful, because the clever creators used three trump cards—Jin Carrey, cute animals, and family concepts.
Don’t need to go into details for the big ace Kim Carrey. I still remember that I saw the first Kim Carrey movie is "Ghost in Disguise", which seems to have happened many years ago, and now I watch Kim Carrey more than ten years later. It seems that there is not much. Are happy people more resistant to old age? ! He is one of the best in American comedies and a topic that is hard to miss for comedy fans. His exaggerated expressions and winking eyebrows from time to time in this film remind us of our childhood favorite "Green Face Monster". He is still so funny. Still so tall, still so close, this is Jim Carrey.
The second card is the six BIRDIEs that tried to steal the limelight in the movie poster. In the film, these little creatures appeared as a special gift. I believe you, as an audience, also admire Mr. Pope. Whether you envy it or not, I am envied anyway. Captain with charismatic charisma, Stinky who loves farting, Bitey who loves to bite people, Louty who loves to be noisy, Lovey who loves a baby, and Rod who is silly. The cats and puppies in the family are all rare enough, if they can come. Such a bunch of strange little things, it still doesn't make people happy!
The last card is the main family warmth, which is the most touching part. When he was a child, Mr. Pop missed his father who loved to travel. The latter missed the most precious process of Xiaobopu’s growth because of his blind pursuit of freedom. At the time of his death, he finally understood that he owed his son; he grew up. Mr. Pope has been unable to let go of his father’s neglect of himself. He has always lacked patience and understanding for his daughters, sons, and wives. Thanks to the arrival of the little penguins, the family of four has finally returned to a whole. Tolerate each other, understand and love each other. Family affection is the most touching, no doubt.
In fact, there are too many "Mr. Pope" in life. He did not experience the warmth of family when he was a child. When he grows up, he is immersed in his career and ignores family, true feelings and even himself. Fortunate people will receive a wonderful gift in life in time. It’s just like Mr. Pope’s penguin, so that he can find the true meaning of life; but the unlucky people may continue to live what they think is the right life, often until the end finds that what they are after is just a piece of shit, and The most precious life value is what is ignored by oneself.
Good film, highly recommended!
