Aussie boy's thoughts
Joining the circus whilst being hunted by a wicked animal control officer is definitely a very new and unusual idea to the Madagascar movie series, but alike the previous films, the creators execute the idea in a non-wasted fashion. This tale is accompanied by the charming humour, but also introduces an unfamiliarly new style. Families will highly appreciate Madagascar 3’s attempt to do something new.
Of course they bring back the unforgettable, quirky, engaging and fun cast to portray animated characters with witty identities, but there’s also some new ones. As the main friends attach to the circus, we’re hilariously set to see the circus animals with more great voices. The animation is also done a lot better and there’s more smooth-paced action. But every child and adult will always remember the antagonist, executed by Frances McDormand.
The journey and the improvement towards the circus animals’ tricks are usually very entertaining, if not at least slightly amusing. Europe’s Most Wanted is also more of a joyful ride than an emotional ride towards the story’s end. Therefore, it’s pretty much a perfect way to say goodbye to Madagascar.
