-by Ann MarieAlex, Marty, Melman and Gloria are back, but this time on a brand new adventure.
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" starts off where Alex (Ben Stiller), Marty (Chris Rock), Melman (David Schwimmer) and Gloria (Jada Pinkett Smith) left off in Madagascar. The animals travel in plane back to New York City, when the plane stalls out and they find themselves in Africa. Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria meet animals like them and learn valuable lessons about themselves and about their friends.
The movie has returning cast of Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer and Jada Pinkett Smith, but this time with a twist. The cast had some new actors brought in to help advance the movie. Bernie Mac makes a voice appearance as Zuba, Alex's father. This marked Mac's last voice acting for an animated film since his death. Also voice acting in the movie is Alec Baldwin and Sherri Shepard.
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" kept the same animated characteristics as the first "Madagascar" movie. The coloring and movements of the characters were smooth on the screen and with the advances of animation, the characters have real world characteristics of the animals they are portraying.
This animated film was directed by both Eric Darnell and Tom McGrath. Both Darnell and McGrath has worked on the first installment of Madagascar, but have also worked on other hit animated movies. Darnell is known for his directing of the movie, "Antz." While McGrath worked on movies such as "Flushed Away" and "Shrek the Third."
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" is recommended for anyone who has seen the first installment of "Madagascar" and likes animated story lines. Also when buying the movie, there is once again a surprise with short animated stories of the sneaky penguins, which is has a great storyline.
