The Best Children's Movie In A While

Rating: 10/10 (31 May 2005)

Madagascar tells the story of animals in a zoo. The lion is some kind of celebrity, the zebra wants to go to the wild, the giraffe is scared of everything, the penguins want to go to Antartica, and the hippo is content. When the penguins influence the zebra to escape, the lion, giraffe, and hippo chase after him. When they are caught in a train station, they are boxed up and shipped off to the Kenya Wildlife Preserve. An incident on the boat involving the rather peculiar penguins causes their boxes to fall off the boat and eventually wind up on the shores of Madagascar.
I loved this movie! There was little or no crude humor, and it made me laugh more than either Shrek, Shrek 2, Shark Tale, and The Incredibles. It was absolutely hysterical. Kudos to DreamWorks for making such an awesome film. I highly recommend to parents or to anyone wanting to go see something funny. My rating is definitely 10 out of 10.
