This is such a great movie for all the family. Jim Carrey doesn’t disappoint in this hilariously cute tale. I found myself in fits of laughter at the adorable little penguins. Watching “Carrey” cleaning up the mess they make and trying to get rid of them, Until he realises how incredibly fond of them he really is ..Awww. Overall a light hearted family movie that will give you a few giggles and certainly keep the kiddies entertained .

I absolutely loved everything about this extraordinary movie, It all starts when a pickup truck derails a speeding train in a small town in Ohio, with a group of six kids who were filming a movie at the time caught it on camera. Shortly after this mysterious train crash the locals and all the dogs start to disappear , suspicions arise that the incident was anything but an accident and as the truth begins to emerge , no one is prepared for what they are about to learn. A truly breathtaking movie that is a must see for all ages! The talented young actors and actresses are definitely on their way to stardom and it shows . The visual effects are simply astounding with huge explosion filled action that keeps you on the edge of your seat. This film left me extremely satisfied and inspired. Abram and Spielberg are a match made in heaven. What a fantastic film!!

Not a dull moment I loved this film from start to finish ! Definatley one of the best movies of 2011 if not of all time. James Franco was completely the star of the show and Andy Serkis did an outstanding job and unforgettable performance playing Caesar .

The effects are absolutely superb and make one hell of a realistic movie, This inspirational movie captures your heart and opens your mind. With a fantastic ending that leaves this movies questions answered and builds hope and excitement toward a sequel. Watch this space…
