Excellent family film with side-splitting laughter!

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2006)

I watched this movie with my niece this last year and expected a children's film, but this one definitely has witty dialog for adults! Even the lemurs' techno song is great! The voice actors all did a fabulous job and surprised me since not all of them are known for being comedians. Also, the animation was stunning and very crisp. Most of all, I loved the script - lots of funny things, and if you're laughing too hard, you might miss a couple more funny lines of dialog along the way! And who knew that Sacha Baron Cohen was Ali G? I'd seen Ali G on TV before, but never knew what his real name was. Just now when I looked up the voice actor for Julien and realized it was him, I was shocked! I didn't realize that he was so versatile. If you want a funny family film to watch or just want to watch an amusing film for yourself, I highly recommend this one.
