Alex, Marty, and other zoo animals find a way to escape from Madagascar when the penguins reassemble a wrecked airplane. The precariously repaired craft stays airborne just long enough to make it to the African continent. There the New Yorkers encounter members of their own species for the first time. Africa proves to be a wild place, but Alex and company wonder if it is better than their Central Park home.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A candy-colored romp that throws talking animals into increasingly absurd situations while quietly exploring what it means to belong. Expect wall-to-wall laughs, dance numbers, and the kind of earnest heart that sneaks up on you between slapstick gags.
