Synopsis: The pinguins left the rest of the band stranded in Africa. Those ones decide to find them in order to go back to their beloved New-York.
Review: Nothing revolutionary in this movie, basically the third episode of a franchise for kids, without the second degree of lecture (for adults) that I appreciate in the Pixal movies. Anyway, action and gags follow one another without much logic but who cares, and there is this great idea of involving the odd bunch of animals in a circus in the second half of the movie, which makes up for the defects.
Quite OK to watch if you have two hours to spare and don't want to use your brain.
Rating: 6 /10
