    Saw the movie on Veteran's day with my two boys. We all enjoyed it. I had one, from the gut, out-loud guffaw when the escape vehicle was launched. Still chuckle when I visualize the scene! Plenty of laughs provided for children and adults from all the visual and slapstick comedy, and extra laughs for the older crowd supplied with double entendres, satirical takes on other movies, etc. Good entertainment. Voices matched the characters very well.

    Better than the original!

    We took our 4 year old to see Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. She had a great time, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We laughed out many several times. It was much better than the first Madagascar.

    A nice surprise, surpassing the quality of the first film.

    Entertainment Weekly | Lisa Schwarzbaum

    Escape 2 Africa is pretty tame, but it knows how to keep its own turf tidy.

    Chicago Sun-Times | Roger Ebert

    This is a brighter, more engaging film than the original "Madagascar."

    Cartoons can get away with being serviceable and skillful without much...
