Daniel Orr Racing Makes A Guest Apearance At Regal Ormond Beach Cinema 12 - Mr. Popper's Penguins

15-June-2011 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE




Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, young Tommy Popper looks forward to the moments when, on his tiptoes to reach a ham radio in his bedroom, he can talk to his world-traveling father. Years later, Tommy is now Mr. Popper, a highly successful real estate developer in Manhattan. Amicably divorced from Amanda, with two children he sees on alternate weekends, Mr. Popper lives the life of luxury in his ultra-modern Park Avenue apartment and is well on his way to becoming partner at his prestigious firm. That is, until the morning a final gift from Popper's late father, a souvenir from Antarctica, arrives in a crate at Popper's front door.



Inside the wooden box, nestled amongst ice packs, is a two-foot tall penguin with bright orange feet. Not a toy penguin, or a stuffed bird from the taxidermist, as Popper at first assumes, but a real, live penguin, who scampers across Popper's floor and emits loud honks. Eager to be rid of this wild creature, Popper contacts every city and state agency imaginable, but no one is willing to take a pet penguin. His call to Antarctica to try to ship the bird back instead results in the arrival of another five penguins at Popper's door.



Let's hear Daniel Orr's take on the movie,



"The Penguins take on the mannerisms or traits closer to humans than wild animals. This of course is to play more into the comedy of the movie, as you see the penguins playing off everything Mr Popper says to them, as if they can understand everything the humans say to the penguins, Which I think they did a good job, some of the human-penguin back and forth looks pretty amusing. Jim Carrey takes on a more mature persona in this movie without losing the great comedic factor he's know for. With that being said, this is a perfect fit for Jim Carrey. The movie has been called his return to physical comedy and after viewing the trailer I concur. Carrey is gawky, funny, over-animated with brilliant facial emotions, quick-witted and on spot with his personal style of humor."
