Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
Most of the older songs included on the soundtrack to this animated feature are so well-known that they border on well-worn (Vangelis' Chariots of Fire theme has to be one of the most reused pieces of 20th-century music ever) but their feel-good quotient is also hard to deny. (Earth, Wind & Fire's "Boogie Wonderland" again? Sure, bring it on!) Still, it's hard not to wish the brains behind this CD had included snippets from the movie, considering it features the vocal talents of Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, and David Schwimmer. (One of the soundtrack's draws is a cover of Reel 2 Real's early `90s hit "I Like to Move It" by Sacha Baron Cohen (a.k.a. Ali G), who voices one of the characters. The track could well turn into the kind of kiddie hit inescapable at the coolest birthday party this year. The other big draw is "Best Friends," a catchy tune halfway between the Beach Boys and Belle & Sebastian that shows that composer Hans Zimmer can do lighthearted whimsy when needed. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

I ordered this product on Aug 6 and it's now Sep 7 and I still have not received this. I had expected that I would receive it within 10 days of placing the order It would have been quicker for me to go to my local shop and have them obtain it for me

We bought this movie for our [...] after our babysitter let him watch it and he loved it. I had some reservations because it was PG-13, but after some lengthy discussions with our [...] about NOT acting out the parts when the penguins are a little naughty, it's been fine. He loves the characters and I'll catch him "running the lines" sometimes when he's playing by himself. The nice part is that my husband and I enjoy watching it too and we listen to the soundtrack in the car as well!

As a compilation it really doesn't flow very well. I must confess - I bought it for only one song. To watch my 4-year-old dance to "Move It Move It" is worth every penny and more!

I bought this CD for my 15-month granddaughter because she fell in love with the music. When it is played, her eyes light up and she "dances" to beat the band. The music is upbeat and keeps her entertained.
