Madagascar 2 Escape Africa


Last saturday, i decided to watch this movie called Madagascar 2 Escape Africa. Since everyone was busy for their own business that night, so i have left no choice but to “force” BQ to be my company. She had no plan for that night anyway, hehe!! The cinema was packed, however our seats were cool~!

I had heard good things about this movie, and it did not disappoint. In most cases, when they make a sequel to a popular kids cartoon, it's never as good as the first one right? Some said Madagascar 2 was definitely an exception. This movie had a number of things going for it. My friend agreed that it was definitely funnier than the first movie.

There were a few places in Madagascar 2 where the jokes were a little on the adult side, but this one didn't have much of that which was nice. It's always refreshing to watch a movie everyone can enjoy, both kids and adults, without getting a little off-colour, though i did not bring kid.

I think one thing that made Madagascar 2 such a great movie was the range of relationship it explored. They develop that relationship between Alex the Lion and his best friend Marty the Zebra, as well as some romantic relationships among the other characters. All put together, it makes for a very engaging plot line.

Oh, did i mention the movie is GORGEOUS? Set in Africa, and the animals are just beautiful. It's a definite must see if you are a animation lover. I will be adding in to my movie library when it comes out on DVD as well.
