Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted


3/5

It started SO promising. Great joke after great joke, I loved the animal control woman, the characters finally had...well character, the animation was finally matching some effort put into it, and it was great! Then it started to slow. The plot's silliness and the quality of the jokes went in a steadily down. It never was bad, but it failed to live up to the level of cleverness in the first third or so. Still, I have to give it to the movie for seriously improving on the first two Madagascar movies. They definitely took better control of their budget, because the movie looked great. The laziness of the characters was embraced into a style, that had enough of a cartoon look to it to be fun with enough tech to look respectable (Alex's mane really looked great). It's funny, you might be shocked with how much you like it. I just couldn't get into the same story we've seen a billion times in animated movies.
