Critics Consensus

Dazzlingly colorful and frenetic, Madagascar 3 is silly enough for young kids, but boasts enough surprising smarts to engage parents along the way.

This is animation that never just goes through the motions but glories in its feats and so, almost certainly, will you.

4/5

Here is a family movie from which absolutely nothing is expected, and yet it's one of the week's best releases: a muscular, potent and very funny film.

Madagascar 3 isn't an emotional ride the way Pixar's films tend towards, but it's relentlessly goofy fun. Good for some laughs, I say take a small person and see what happens.

I will not call watching the movie a bad experience. But to be honest with you, that's not saying much.

Madagascar 3's story is second rate, but still the humor and the heartfelt moments it offers are enough for a solid family flick. 3.5/5 - Good
