Product Description
Product Description
Alex, Marty, Gloria and Melman are still fighting to get home to their beloved Big Apple. Their journey takes them through Europe where they find the perfect cover: a traveling circus, which they reinvent - Madagascar style.
TIME Magazine calls Madagascar 3 "A three dream circus. A real fun movie." (Richard Corliss)
"Hilarious! The best 'Madagascar' yet!" (Pete Hammond, BOXOFFICE Magazine)
"Charming and very funny." (Bill Zwecker, Chicago Sun Times)
Amazon.com
Madagascar 3 is the funny, action-filled third installment in the popular animated Madagascar franchise. The film opens with the penguins and lemur King Julien XIII flying off in a monkey-powered plane to visit the casinos of Monte Carlo, leaving Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman back in Africa awaiting their return. When the penguins don't come back, the lion, zebra, hippo, and giraffe go after them and descend on the casino in their typically bumbling fashion. Silliness and comedy abound, but the plot drags a bit through this section of the film until the introduction of Captain DuBois, an animal control officer with some serious tracking skills and an obsession with acquiring a lion head for her wall. The story and action really begin in earnest when Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman join up with a traveling circus in an attempt to elude DuBois. The sense of conflict, humor on both kid and adult levels, and suspense is fantastic as the foursome go to great lengths to impress the veteran circus animals and improve the struggling circus's show to win a coveted American tour contract. Each of the animals learns some important lessons about taking risks, believing in oneself, and finding and pursuing one's passion along the journey. But when it looks like the group's dream of returning to the New York Zoo may finally be within grasp, the quartet discover that they can never truly go back to the way things used to be--and more surprisingly, that perhaps none of them really wants to. (Ages 6 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

Speaking of the animals, as King Julian and the Penguins overshadowed the main cast in the first "Madagascar" and the Penguins killed in "Madagascar 2", Alex the lion remained the focal point of this iteration with a nice balance being given to KJ and the penguins and some very likable new animals being introduced by way of the traveling circus. I especially liked the sympathetic seal Stefano (voiced by Martin Short doing a great impersonation of Roberto Benigni, and those teeth!), and the Russian tiger and the Cheetah were both made to orbit Alex the lion in a yin-yang way (the tiger was the doubter, the aggressor and the cheetah was the believer, the lover).
The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way and that I think was in poor taste, clever as it may have been, was Alex the lion remarking that his relatives used to headline the Roman coliseum circus events back in the day (our travelers were performing their first show in Rome, in the coliseum). I'm sure this went over all of the children's heads and most of the adult's but the reference to dissidents and Christians being "fed to the lions" (while maybe in character for Alex the lion to say) isn't something to laugh at, especially not in a kid's movie. But other than this and one instance where you thought a character was going to yell "that's bulls***" (the Russian tiger Nataly yells, "That's Bolshevik!" instead) the movie kept it's kid-friendly tone with its thoughtful and easily digestible messages.
Lastly, I saw this in 2D and thought that it looked fine. I'm sure that the colors popped in 3D but I wouldn't think that this is a "must see in 3D" movie. Some retailers are selling copies of the first two movies with money off your theater ticket as part of the bonus. That's a good way to go. Get through the first fifteen minutes of this film and you've got yourself a winner.
As good as "Madagascar 2", if not better.
When we see our favorite zoo escapees this time, they are on the run with their jungle friends in Europe. Alex (Ben Stiller), Marty (Chris Rock), Gloria (Jada Pinkett Smith) and Melman (David Schwimmer) desperately want to get back to Central Park. Standing in their way is Captain Chantel Dubois (Frances McDormand) as the most evil animal control officer in the world. They narrowly escape her clutches by jumping on a train with a traveling circus. Now their only hope for getting to New York is to buy the circus and whip them into good enough shape to earn a touring contract in America.
Director and screenwriter Eric Darnell does an excellent job of leading the crew with this third installment. The story incorporates new characters beautifully by adding a love interest for Alex (Gia, voiced by Jessica Chastain), a dopey friend for Marty (Stefano, voiced by Martin Short), and a fallen hero everyone can cheer for (Vitaly, a tiger voiced by Bryan Cranston). King Julien (Sacha Baron Cohen) also finds love in a big bear wearing a tutu named Sonya, and the results are as hilariously sweet as the love saga of Donkey and Dragon. Kids will be able to keep up with all of the new names and nationalities and may even find a new favorite character in the bunch.
What makes this movie truly magic is the skillful use of 3D technology. Every leap on the flying trapeze, flight out of a cannon, and grasp at an animal's tail by Captain Dubois jumps out of the screen and excites the senses. It is so refreshing to see a movie in 3D that actually takes full advantage of its capability. The clever script and silly animation also kept me laughing, but I could have done without all of the jabs at people of Russian, French, Canadian, and basically all non-American descent. What was initially funny drifted toward mean, and resulted in one joke that was totally inappropriate. These moments only accounted for about 5 of the nearly 90 minutes of running time, so do not let that deter you from enjoying this chaotic adventure.
The soundtrack is fabulous as well and gets the kids up and moving as well as singing along. I do wish they would've incorporated more of the "Move It" song that my kids love.
I like the Blu-Ray/DVD Combo with the Digial Copy. I like having the Blu-Ray for use at home as well as the DVD for long car rides. The digital copy is great to pull up on a laptop in a hotel room for a before bed movie. I can't say I recommend the rainbow wig, however. The rainbow wig included is a mess. It looks awful and has bald patches and the hair is stuck together. It also falls out in chunks if you touch it.
My 5 year-old loves the wig though so I took a brush and "frizzed" it out. That helped a great deal, but there are still areas where it was sewn too far apart to fix the bald patches. You also may want to just get rid of it if you've got little ones that will eat stuff off the floor.
All-in-all a wonderful movie and the set is great for kids of all ages as well as the adults watching with them.

Our animal protagonists start the movie stranded in Africa and awaiting the return of the penguins who have gone to Monaco to gamble at the casinos. Tired of waiting, our heroes track them down before falling foul of a psychopathic animal control inspector who proceeds to pursue them across Europe.
Having crashed their Heath Robinson flying machine the animals hitch a lift with a decrepit circus. They learn that the circus is to be auditioned by an American agent for a gig in New York. Seeing an opportunity to get home the animals convince the circus animals that they are great circus performers and agree to train their rescuers in return for a chance to try out with the circus for passage to New York.
This is the cue for all sorts of physics-defying lunacy before the animals stage a psychedelic spectacular for an amazed audience.
As a 2nd sequel this is a pretty good film. Despite the one star detractors among the reviewers I think it holds up well against the first two films. There are new characters, plenty of action and the hopes, doubts and dreams of the circus animals drive the emotional core of the story. Yes it could be interpreted as giving a message that animals belong in a circus but only if you over-think it. After all, what circus has trapeze walking giraffes and hippos? Where would you see a sea lion or a zebra blown out of a cannon? It's too fantastic to take seriously.
Buy the movie, a big bag of popcorn and some drinks and enjoy a family night with the kids. You could do a lot worse.

Alex der Löwe, Marty das Zebra, Melman die Giraffe und Gloria das Nilpferd vermissen in Afrika die nach Monte Carlo abgereisten Pinguine und Schimpansen. Schon bald machen sich die vier selbst auf den Weg nach Europa. Nachdem die Freunde wieder vereint sind, werden sie vom monegassischen Tierfängerdienst um Captain Chantel DuBois verfolgt. Den Tieren gelingt die Flucht, indem sie sich einem Wanderzirkus anschließen. Dieser Zirkus, der vom sibirischen Tiger Vitaly geleitet wird, hat seine besten Zeiten hinter sich, wird aber von Alex und seinen Freunden neu motiviert. Die Reise des Wanderzirkusses führt durch mehrere europäische Städte und endet in London, wo der Zirkus für Auftritte in Amerika engagiert wird. So kommen die Freunde schließlich nach New York zurück.
Doch die Rückkehr erweist sich als weit weniger glanzvoll als erhofft: Der Zoo gleicht inzwischen einem Gefängnis, in welchem hohe Zäune und Stacheldraht ein erneutes Verschwinden der Tiere verhindern sollen. Noch dazu wird DuBois für das angebliche Zurückbringen der Freunde als Heldin gefeiert und will die Feierlichkeiten benutzen, um sich Alex Kopf als Trophäe zu holen, was eigentlich von Anfang an ihr Plan gewesen war. Im letzten Moment tauchen jedoch die Zirkustiere auf und retten, unter dem Vorwand einer öffentlichen Vorstellung, die Freunde aus dem Zoo. So beschließen Alex, Marty, Melman und Gloria, anstatt im Zoo zu bleiben, im Zirkus zu bleiben und mit ihren neuen Freunden weiterzureisen.
In der letzten Sequenz des Films erfährt der Zuschauer, dass die Pinguine DuBois und ihre Gehilfen überwältigt und in Kisten nach Madagascar verschifft haben, genau so wie es den Freunden im ersten Film passiert ist.
