He's separated from his wife Carla Gugino , who looks after their two children, but is still on good terms. The arrival of the Antarctic creatures lends Popper the opportunity to bond with his estranged family again, all while his ruthless company attempts to wrestle away the Tavern on the Green restaurant from its owner Mrs Van Gundy Angela Lansbury.
It's all highly predictable stuff and there's not much crackle or spark in this familiarity to make it worthwhile. The Popper role requires eccentricity, yet Carrey is contained and buttoned down, only cutting loose with his manic energy on a couple of occasions. He does do a very good Jimmy Stewart impression, though. Mr Popper's Penguins collects together small moments that leave an impression, such as Brit actress Ophelia Lovibond's Pippi, an assistant to Popper with a fondness for alliterating her Ps.
A set piece featuring the penguins running amok at the Guggenheim Museum and a great gag where Popper's flooded bathroom becomes a temporary aquarium - as seen in the trailer below - also find their mark.
