Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

When it started up I was immediately sucked in, and I never became uninterested and it never stopped entertaining, because they did an excellent job at keeping your attention.

There were some parts in the movie where I felt as if they tried too hard to please the audience and then others it got a little dumb and boring, but overall I laughed I almost cried and when it was over I wanted to watch it again. ;)

It’s a great sequel to a great movie and I enjoyed watching it as much as the first.

It’s fantastic ;) , you must see it.

The sequel of the first movie, the New York Zoo Animals, Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe and Gloria the Hippo, still stranded on Madagascar, started to leave the island.

have fun! ;) magic

The continent’s geography and political barriers have made it difficult to roll out wired broadband.
