I didn't love it, but it's not bad.

Rating: 7/10 (27 September 2009)

I am recommending Madagascar, though I found bits of it to be a little weird. I thought some of the film was silly also. Trust me there are better animated films but I liked this movie. Enough to own it on DVD. I laughed at a lot of parts, and didn't laugh at some parts. I actually found the film to be a bit disturbing at times.
Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett Smith and David Schwimmer star as Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman, three zoo animals who have no clue what it's like in the real world. So when Marty escapes from the zoo, they go looking for him and are soon locked up in crates. Eventually, they find themselves in Madagascar. Where they release their inner selves. Sort of.
Ill admit that it's not a great film. There are definitely better animated films(Bee movie, Shrek). Trust me, this film ain't no Shrek. Shrek is the best work that Dreamworks has ever done. I can't believe I found Bee movie more amusing than this. But I liked this film. I didn't like when Ben Stiller's character goes on rampage and tries to hunt down other animals because he's obsessed with steaks. I thought it was kind of disturbing. Though I think that Madagascar could've been better, I still give it a thumbs up.
