Madagascar 3 is takes a new turn; the truth is this movie is extremely funny, and far better than Madagascar 2. Never a dull moment while watching and every scene make you eager to see what was next. The makers went over board and decided to make the movie unrealistic to the core, Tom and Jerry style, which I very well appreciated.

DreamWorks Animation's CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg confirmed in 2008 that there will be a part three to Alex and his crew’s adventure, promising us that we will see them return to New York.

The animation is just as good as the other installments and as usual the producers gave King Julien XIII (Sacha Baron Cohen, Borat 2006 and The Dictator 2012) his own story and this time it is a romantic one, but not only Julien had a romantic story in this movie.

The crew is joined by bunch circus animals which they met when trying to escape from Captain Chantel DuBois, the leader of animal control in France.

Madagascar 3 features our old crew Alex, Marty, Gloria and Melman who are abandoned by the penguins and the monkeys who were trying to buy their way back to America, which didn’t work and they ended up in France, Monte Carlo to be exact.

Alex and the crew meet up with, well found the penguins in Monte Carlo and started a chaos that led to the introduction of, DuBois (the meanest and cruelest animal control officer there ever was and ever will be). Their journey takes them through Europe where they find the perfect cover: a traveling circus which they joined and reformed.

The most impressive addition and the star of the movie to me was Chantel DuBois, she was a cross between Terminator, Rambo and a Blood Hound. You will love the way she smashes through walls, track down Alex and his gang and the way she seems to be unstoppable, but no matter how badass she was, the penguins were better.

The lines, the screenplay and the penguins were far too much for my stomach to handle. There is a rumor that there will be a fourth installment, I hope it is true.

Did Alex and the rest make it back to Central Park?

That you have to find out yourself, so make sure when it is out in the cinema near you, you queue up to see it.
