Blu-ray movie review of Madagascar

This films emulates a lot of the recent animated blockbusters such as Finding Nemo, Shrek, and various other Dreamworks and Pixar animation efforts. The story is not terribly original but the people behind the works execute it very well. It targets the young audience but works equally well attracting teens to adults. So, it's movie that anyone can really enjoy and the sequel that's been just released is testament to the popularity of this original work.

This is a really fish out of water story. Bunch of zoo animals end up in the middle of Madagascar, an island near Africa. And you can imagine what follows when these "city" animals are introduced into the wild. Lots and lots of funny moments.

As with other animation works, music is pretty important and displayed prominently. Hanz Zimmer does fantastic job scoring and selecting music for this movie.

The voice actors are all fantastic. Popular Hollywood actors do fantastic job with the movie. Ben Stiller and Chris Rock voice the lion and zebra as the main characters. Jada Pinkett Smith's hippo and and David Schwimmer's giraffe are very capable secondary characters.

Even though I'm past the age where I should enjoy animation, I enjoyed this movie a lot. It was very funny money and Dreamworks animation tend to include jokes that are more targeted toward older audience ala Shrek. All in all, everyone should be able to enjoy this film.
