I've only seen Happy Feet and found it far too long with little story - cute for about 5 minutes. Mine are 4 and 2 and were pretty bored by it.

In the Guardian review both films got 2 stars out of 5...

Seen both with my two boys (10 and 9).
All of us were bored by Happy Feet towards the middle.
The children loved Flushed Away. I liked it a lot, but had a little snooze half way through!
(But we did have the cinema to ourselves, and it was dark and cosy! ).

The kids enjoyed both, but I'd definitely recommend Flushed Away!

We've seen both Happy Feet was a little long and ok but Flushed Away was most enjoyable and my two 7 & 11 loved it. It was appealing to adults as well.

Flushed away shit imo

Happy Feet is odd, odd story and not very colourful! Kids have seen flushed away and love it, I haven't seen it, but then I missed the end of Happy Feet aswell, due to restless baby,kids were bored and asked to go home!
