Review: Madagascar 2

 Print This Article |  Email This Article

Madagascar 2 was great.  It’s about how the same animals from the first movie make another go at getting home and end up  on a preserve in Africa.  The story is fun, though a bit light with quite a few clichés. Still, it was fresh and funny enough to entertain my whole family. My six year old loved it.

All the voice actors did a stellar job. I recognized Alec Baldwin as a bad lion. Of course, my favorites, the penguins made the return trip, and so did Sascha Baron Cohen’s King Lemur.

This film is a bit bittersweet in that it is one of Bernie Mac’s last films. He played Zuba, Alex’s dad. There is a tribute to him at the end.

Don’t bother sticking around for the end credits. There isn’t any secret ending.
