Its OK

Rating: 7/10 (17 June 2005)

It seems this is the only kids movie/animation this summer so it has very little competition. If it had come out the same year as any of the other movies of its genre (ie. Shrek 2, Incredibles, Shark Tale, etc.) then people would see its fairly average. But still not awful. Chris Rock is funny, but then I always think he is. Ben Stiller is...hmm...overexposed? Is it just me or was David Schwimmer trying to play Melman the giraffe like Woody Allen? The funniest for me were the penguins, as well as Cedric and Sasha as the Lemurs. Hope these comments are helpful to some of you. Its a good movie sure, but doesn't really stack up against the others in this category. So its fine for kids but you adults who go there or have girlfriends who want to see 'cute' movies, its not as fun.
