If you loved He's All That, try Mr. Popper's Penguins

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Mark Waters, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to He's All That, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mr. Popper's Penguins is

New York City, winter, ice skates scraping. A high-rise apartment fills with penguins and chaos, a businessman's life turned upside-down. Mark Waters brings a lighthearted touch to family comedy.
