Watch Madagascar For Free
Madagascar
Alex the lion is the king of the urban jungle, the main attraction at New York's Central Park Zoo. He and his best friends—Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo—have spent their whole lives in blissful captivity before an admiring public and with regular meals provided for them. Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty lets his curiosity get the better of him and makes his escape—with the help of some prodigious penguins—to explore the world.

Fantastic!
Did you people see the same film I saw?
A Masterpiece!
Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Dreamworks started to fall really early into their lifespan, huh? They started off brilliantly with the likes of Shrek, Prince Of Egypt and Antz, but started to fall into mediocrity somewhere around 2005 after Madagascar. This movie does have good animation for 2005 and some of the jokes do hit and they do have a decent cast, but the rest of the movie? A bunch of pop culture references that have to be censored with the words "darn" and "heck" because of it's age rating that end up making them fall flat, King Julien is the worst thing to ever be created besides Minions, sometimes it just makes me feel uncomfortable and there a lot of things that are just plain off. Nothing much to say about it really, it's just an average kids flick that MIGHT entertain you at some points.
Family fun with some great characters and personalities.
This is a very good animation film, the characters, the voices and actors behind them do a great job, they feel very real and alive.This is really all about the characters, where they go and what they do doesn't mean as much as them and their interactions. David Schwimmer does a great job as this overprotective Giraf, he is the hypochondriac in the crowd and he really has some great outburst. Actually all the characters have their own special blend, I will let you experience it on your own, but I will say that it is all the side characters that is really the most fun. And who could see Chris Rock as this very loud mouth Zebra, the voices just really works for this character.
I think I was in grade 2 when this movie came out, I remember because I fell asleep in the theater. My friends and I all hated it and thought it was stupid. It had annoying soundtrack, characters that were all weird in an annoying way, repeated dance scenes of animals shaking their butts, god knows why, and that toilet humor that only the "lowest common denominator" finds funny. There was a lion getting high while the "Candyman" song played in the background, really strange. There were racial stereotypes that you'd think cinema would be past in this day and age. The only thing I remember as being remotely funny were the penguins! And they were only minor characters! The movie was filled with that typical "fail humor" (things getting hurt for the audience's amusement). It's just pathetic, honestly. I don't get it even now, was this movie supposed to be so moronic or was it an accident? What's even more unbelievable is that a sequel and television show were added to this load of crud. I never wanted to have kids anyway, but if I did have kids I wouldn't ever expose them to this kind of thing! Try something like Spirited Away, Monster's Inc. or Lilo & Stitch if you want to show your kids some animation actually worth watching.
