Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa - Released 7th Nov 2008

Another sequel movie, yikes!! On second thought, this one's not so bad after all. I've been a fan of cartoons (oops), i meant animation ever since I was born (thats around about the early 80s if you're so keen to know). I really thought this one was going to be a flop just like Pocahontas 2 and The Little Mermaid 2 (both went direct to DVD). However, it turns out that if you can steal a tiny bit of story line from one of the greatest animation movies ever made, ehemmm, The Lion King of course, then you'd probably survive ticket sales. Yes...there's an evil uncle waiting to take the Kingdom throne and Alex (Ben Stiller - The Lion) has to stop him. Yada-yada....

What I like most about this sequel is that there is more things to laugh at this time around. The first movie was really funny. Escape 2 Africa is just HILARIOUS!!! Someone's gotta Shoot down King Julien, Pleeaaaseeeee!!!......he's so adorable and comedic. Humor me more Your Highness!! lol.

Animation is sharper this time around, with more detail within the environment. This one's a hit with the kids, for sure.
3.5/5 stars
