Madagascar...

The movie was actually not too bad, although I was expecting a little bit more from the people that made Shrek and Shrek2. To give you an idea, they made blatent refrences to Hawaii 5-0 and Chariots of Fire within a minute of each other. They also did a parody of the classic scene from American Beauty (you know the one where she's naked and the rose petals are falling on her). Overall despite the fact it had Ben Stiller as one of the lead voices (lion) it made up for it by having Chris Rock (zebra) and David Schwimmer (paranoid Giraffe) and Jada Pinkett Smith (Hippo) to make up for it. It had some very funny scenes and I won't give away anymore, it is worth seeing but if your expecting another Shrek you will be disappointed. I would give it 8.5 out of 10.
