Synopsis

Jim Carrey is Mr. Popper, in a family comedy about a driven businessman who is clueless when it comes to the important things in life—until he inherits six penguins. While Popper’s penguins turn his swank New York apartment into a snowy winter wonderland—and the rest of his life upside-down—they teach him valuable lessons about families… human or otherwise. Also starring Carla Gugino and Angela Lansbury, Mr. Popper’s Penguins is a contemporary update of the award-winning book by Richard and Florence Atwater.
