A slight bubblegum animated musical with recognizable hit songs that is perfectly acceptable for the little ones.

In Antarctica, a colony of Emperor Penguins are living peacefully. A female penguin named "Norma Jean" (voiced by Nicole Kidman) finds a mate named "Memphis" (voiced by Hugh Jackman) by singing a "heartsong" ("Kiss" by Prince), to which "Memphis" responds with his own "heartsong ("Heartbreak Hotel" by "The King of Rock 'n' Roll" Elvis Presley).

And when the ending finally comes, it appears forced. The whole addition of an environmental issue still has me …
