Pros: superb video and good audio; generous bonus features
Cons: rather bland, predictable family comedy

A family film of pleasant predictability but no great originality, Mr. Popper’s Penguins is likely exactly what one would expect it to be: improvisational comedian Jim Carrey spending ninety minutes acting and reacting to a collection of real and CGI penguins surrounded by a conventional, rather bland story of a broken family becoming reunited through their affection for their feathered friends. Efforts to spice up the original award-winning children’s book insert the expected fart and poop jokes right on cue, and Jim Carrey turning sticky sweet and gooey is never a good thing.
