grown-ups will quickly become annoyed with the squawking, the poorly conceived penguin names and the copious amount of penguin poop

Jim Carrey's farts-and-flippers comedy, which, though exceedingly dumb, is at least very smart about what appeals to 4- to 10-year-old kids, fans of Happy Feet, March of the Penguins, and YouTube animal videos.

Holy mother of pearl, talk about superficial claptrap!
