Review of Madagascar (2005) by 43In2014 — 31 Jul 2015
Before watching this film: No related film precedes this.
Premise: A couple of city zoo animals were wrongly released back into the wild after a animal rights protest and a boat sinking and the animals must adapt to live in the jungle.
Pros:
1) The big four animals are fun and interesting.
2) The penguins, monkeys and lemurs are great supporting characters and they often outperform the main four animals in making the film good.
Cons:
1) The film slowed down in the third quarter and there were less jokes as the film becomes introspective. This should not have been allowed to happen.
Score: 4/5 (no half score). Good enough to watch it in the cinema.
Who would be satisfied with this film? All children would love it. For others, the older you are, the less you would love it.
