Madagascar (2005)

Cast: Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer, Jada Pinkett Smith
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Madagascar page.

The concept of some animals from the zoo who have been pampered all their lives wanting to escape to the wild and succeeding (partially due to some crazy penguins) is a great one! The movie looked so funny. The cast of voices couldn't get much better.

I think I should have stuck with the previews. Those were funny and allowed me to think that the movie would be great. The potential of the movie was better than the actual movie for me.

I think it might appeal more to kids, due to the crazy penguins, but for me they were a bit over the top and the other characters weren't quite interesting enough.

I know it's a short movie for the kids, which are clearly the target audience, but there are some great relatively short animated films out there and I had high hopes for Madagascar.

Grade: C-
