Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa

I'm not quite sure why I saw this. Okay, I lie... it was for the penguins. The penguins rocked in Madagascar, so I decided to give this a shot... even though I hated Madagascar.

Big mistake. This movie, while having a couple of funny moments...

Private: In case of a loss of oxygen, please place your masks over your faces to hide your terrified expressions from the other passengers.

And

Mason: Work will not continue until we discuss our terms with management. Fist up, maternity leave.
Skipper: Maternity leave?
[looks under table]
Skipper: You're all male!

And

[Bulb on the fuel guage is flashing]
Kowalski: Skipper Look
Skipper: Analysis
Kowalski: It looks like a small incandescent bulb, designed to indicate something out of the ordinary like a malfunction
Skipper: I find it pretty and somewhat hypnotic
Kowalski: That too sir
Skipper: Right, Rico Maunal
[Catches the manual and smashes the bulb with it]
Skipper: Problemo solved
Kowalski: Sir, we maybe out of fuel
Kowalski: What makes you think that?
Kowalski: We've lost engine one, And engine two is no longer on fire.
Skipper: [on the microphone] This is your captain speaking. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we will be landing immediately.
[everyone claps]
Skipper: The bad news is, we're crash landing.
[Plane goes on a dive]
Skipper: When it comes to air travel, we know that you have no choice whatsoever, but thanks again for choosing Air Penguin.

And finally...

Julien: Look, I'm lady. Which of you is attracted to me?

Yeah, there were funny moments. And the penguins. That said, the movie was a bigger letdown than the first one. Too much of the Lion King storyline, and too much of the old lady. Sorry, but it's the truth.

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa... so bad that Madagascar seems like a good movie. Boom, roasted!
