Little Eggs: A Frozen Rescue tells the tale of Toto and his family on another adventure – this time to the South Pole to help a kidnapped baby polar bear and his penguin friends return home. On the run from the pirate brothers who were behind the kidnapping and with the help of the Little Eggs family, the gang of animals learn to deal with loss, fear, friendship, and killer whales as they attempt to make their journey from Mexico to Antarctica!

 

Originally released as A Frozen Rooster in 2022, Little Eggs: A Frozen Rescue is the latest film in the series from Mexican brothers Gabriel and Rodolfo Riva Palacio Alatriste which started back in 2005 with A Movie Of Eggs. Three sequels would follow with Another Egg & Chicken Movie in 2009, Little Rooster's Egg-cellent Adventure in 2015, and Little Eggs: An African Rescue in 2021, clearly proving to be successful enough that audiences wanted more. With their latest offering, the brothers clearly deliver their best work yet with some gorgeous animation, genuinely funny moments, and just enough emotional trauma to keep viewers invested. Unfortunately, this has also been confirmed as the final film of the “Huevos” series – although I look forward to what the team has to offer in the near future.

 

Honing some inspiration from animated films such as Surfs Up, Madagascar, and Ice Age, Little Eggs: A Frozen Rescue gets its UK big-screen outing courtesy of Dazzler Media just in time for Easter, and I couldn't recommend it enough. Kids of all ages will find something to enjoy in this farmyard adventure, from its funky soundtrack to its quirky and lovable characters, and from its colourful animation to its exciting thrills and chases. And be sure to stick around for a fun mid and post credit scene that helps tie things up for those of you who get invested... (3.7/5) George @invincibleasia
