    BEIJING, Jan. 13 -- After seeing the movie "Happy Feet," I bet you'll want to dance out of the theater.

    Warner Bros' newly released animation "Happy Feet" has danced its way to the IMAX screen at Beijing's UME Cineplex since Friday.

    Sadly, Chinese kids can only understand the tap-dancing penguins in the movie by reading Chinese subtitles when they are speaking English. It tells the story of a young penguin in Antarctica named Mumble who was born to tap dance. In his world, you're nobody unless you can sing. Unfortunately, he is the worst singer in the world.

    The movie has grossed more than 326 million U.S.dollars at the box office across the world.

    Big names like Nicole Kidman, Robin Williams and Hugh Jackman have lent their voices to animation.

    Beijing kids can also watch this movie at other nine digital cinemas, include Stellar International Cineplex, New Century Cinema and Wanda International Cinema starting on Jan. 26.
