Answer 2

Madagascar is a computer-animated film produced by DreamWorks Animation, and released in movie theatres on May 27, 2005. The film tells the story of four Central Park Zoo animals who have spent their lives in blissful captivity and are unexpectedly shipped back to Africa, getting shipwrecked on the island of Madagascar. The voices of Ben Stiller, Jada Pinkett Smith, Chris Rock and David Schwimmer are featured. Other voices include Andy Richter, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Cedric the Entertainer.

Answer 3

Great flick! There are several themes associated with the film. There are also a lot of subtle things going on - Melman picking up the toilet deoderizer in the train station. I think the 2 funniest lines are; 1- when the penquins are standing on the frozen windy Antarctic surface - One of them says "This sucks" and 2- Marty: "You won't see that on Animal Planet"

Answer 4

pretty good answers so far. especially Amadala. but what is funny is that i have a friend who is Malagasy (the correct name for someone who is from Madagascar), and they are annoyingly amused that someone would entitle a silly cartoon w/ talking animals being stranded on an isolated island w/ the name of their home country. i guess the only link is that Madagascar is an island too. but quite big, and quite civilized, i assure you.

it would be like re-naming "Cars" to "America" instead. as if it's the quintessential American movie.

Answer 5

Basically Madagascar is about 4 animals who are in the New york Zoo and they are being transported from New York to another place. Then, the penguins in it try to escape and the four animals are throwned overboard and wind up on a strange island!!!!

Answer 6

A home is not a place or a building. A home is where you and your family experience love for one another.

Answer 7

Main theme: Born Free
I guess thats what you mean...

Madagascar (2005)

"Madagascar" is the animated comedy for parents who think kids' films have gotten too big for their britches. This tale of wandering New York City zoo animals chooses mild fun over the winking, in-jokey approach of "Shrek 2" and "Shark Tale," the past two animated films from DreamWorks, the studio behind "Madagascar."

The movie's celebrity voice talent is reined in, and potentially scary parts are toned down, ensuring that even very young kids will appreciate most scenes. Unfortunately, this modulated approach extends to the story, which lacks a climax.

Ben Stiller voices Alex, a lion and star attraction of the Central Park Zoo. Alex preens and roars at the crowd on cue, and his zebra pal, Marty (Chris Rock), snorts water at patrons. The joke is that these savvy creatures know when it's show time. Their performances allow the animals to communicate with humans in a safe setting. Alex speaks English with his animal pals, but his words become roars when he addresses people.

Rock's zebra seems patterned on Eddie Murphy's donkey from "Shrek" (edgy African American "Saturday Night Live" veteran + equine role = comedy gold!), but Marty is rather muted, despite the stripes. Hearing but not seeing Stiller and Rock makes you realize how much of their humor stems from facial expressions. Behind their pleasant animal faces, they seem sweet and rather tame.

Marty is more adventurous than his lion friend, a pussycat who dreams about juicy steaks and wants to stay in his beloved Big Apple. Alex and Marty's pals, a hypochondriacal giraffe (David Schwimmer) and a female hippopotamus (Jada Pinkett Smith), will join them on their trip to the wild, which they assume to be somewhere in Connecticut.

Pinkett Smith doesn't really register as the hippo, unless you count the fun of knowing that an enormous animal is being voiced by such a petite actress. Of the four main characters, only the giraffe looks truly distinctive.

Animators seem to have worked overtime to find ways to stuff the long-necked, long-limbed creature into spaces where he doesn't fit. Schwimmer does a variation on his Ross whine from "Friends" as the giraffe, Melman, expresses various worries.

Lines about HMOs and cheap prescriptions from Canada will go over kids' heads, but every instance of adult humor is balanced by more universal humor. Directed by Eric Darnell and Tom McGrath and written by Mark Burton and Billy Frolick, "Madagascar" skates over the edge only once, with a reference to Tom Wolfe. Who's that again? Isn't he rumored to be big and bad?

Marty gets the idea of escaping the zoo's brick and concrete confines from some penguins planning to dig their way to Antarctica. These tough little guys aren't afraid to smack people around to achieve their icy aims, and their comic bits are the film's roughest moments. Marty makes a break for it via the penguins' tunnel, and Alex and pals get sidetracked at the train station while trying to look for him. Even seen-it-all New Yorkers react with surprise when zoo animals try to board a train.

The New York City moments provide nice detail, but "Madagascar" rarely shows the visual panache of "Shrek" or the Pixar films. Scenes set in Madagascar offer lovely backdrops of white sand, blue sea and bright flora, but they're most notable for a tiny character who steals the show from the New Yorkers.

Julien, self-styled king of the lemurs, offers the perfect matchup of character, animation and voice. Sacha Baron Cohen ("Da Ali G Show") brings a bouncy Indian/French accent to the tiny monarch, who puffs out his chest with every declaration. He's quite a dancer, leading island raves populated by marsupials who know how to shake it.

The forests of Madagascar harbor predators that threaten its native creatures and the zoo animals, but these predators seem more eerie than truly frightening. This means that youngsters will be less scared than they are at some animated movies, but also less thrilled. Modest skirmishes seem to be leading to a big showdown, but that event never materializes. The film just ends, forcing us to settle for appetizers when we really wanted steak.
