The film tells that in order to celebrate the birthday of the most beloved younger brother, the rookie, the boss led the rookie and his good partners Koski and Rigo to break into the most heavily guarded gold reserve center in the United States, just to find the only French fries at the end of the vault. Vending machine. Unexpectedly, not long after they completed the task, they were swallowed by a vending machine with tentacles, and then transported to a mysterious place. Inside the fully enclosed facility, the four penguins meet Dave the octopus disguised as a genetic scientist. It turns out that Dave was once a star octopus at the zoo, but with the arrival of the cute penguins, he fell into the depths of despair. So Dave devotes himself to the creation of the terrifying serum and vows to take revenge on all the penguins in the zoo he has been in. The boss and the buddies are rescued by the Northwind operatives on the way to escape, and they and these arrogant operatives will stop Dave separately. Aside from the form of animation and the images of penguins and pigs, the movie is a more "traditional" American blockbuster, promoting struggle and adventure, depicting love and friendship, celebrating responsibility and self-sacrifice, and interspersed with some funny plots and details. Let’s talk about struggle and adventure first. The opening scene is in Antarctica. The penguins are migrating on the ice sheet. Only our pig’s feet trio go deep into danger for a penguin egg that no one cares about. Finally, the pig’s feet drift away with the ice floes. .
The struggle in the film refers to a spirit that does not bow to fate. "We throw a few eggs every year, this is the law of nature." "I reject the law of nature! Whoever wants to save this egg with me, stand up!" "We have a 95% chance of dying" "The other 5% What?" "We will get the glory that other penguins have never seen" "Okay, then we will choose the 5%!" Whether it is a dangerous abandoned oil tanker or the mysterious sea, the penguins, especially the "boss", Never give up easily. When the ice floes slowly drifted into the distance, as if a boat was sailing to the other shore full of danger and temptation, I began to have a feeling of "burning". It turned out that those few would be skilled at operating machines and would calmly negotiate with the monkeys. Penguin, and such an experience full of passion and dreams. The role of "rookie" may be in a relatively marginal position in the team because of the fragile image in the memory of "boss" for a long time. When the penguin boss introduced himself to the "confidential" captain, "rookie" was just a " Secretary and mascot", but from the point of view of the whole film, the rookie is undoubtedly an important role, from a much-loved child in the first half to the great power after witnessing the arrest of the seniors - escaping from prison and saving the North Wind team members , and brave self-sacrifice, this change is undoubtedly the influence of friendship, so that the rookie dares to scold the secret captain "If the boss is there, no matter whether he has super equipment, he will find a way to complete the task, if you don't help, then I will save Boss". In order to restore the penguins to their original state and eliminate the effects of the mutant beam, the penguin quartet stole Dave Octopus's launcher, but the launcher needs "very cute things" as energy, so where to find it? Rookie Without hesitation, he stood in the transmitter and connected the line to himself. The boss will definitely not let the last normal penguin sacrifice himself, but the rookie has discovered his value and will not give up at all. "This time, I am Secret Weapon".
In the end, the ending was pretty good. The rookie didn't turn into something strange, but just grew a pair of antlers. The penguins who regained their original image knew the sacrifice that the rookie made for them, and accepted him with love and gratitude. The arrogant secret captain also had to admit the penguins' credit. And Dave Octopus, who was left out in the cold, became a toy in a crystal ball, and also met a master who liked it... um... But Dave Octopus didn't seem to have a good ending.
