“Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted” starts out with some our favorite
animated animals stuck in Africa, longing for the confines of the
Central Park Zoo — I think. It’s not really clear.
Once again, Ben Stiller voices Alex the lion, Chris Rock gives life to
Marty the zebra, David Schwimmer is Melman the giraffe, and Jada
Pinkett-Smith lends her dulcet tones to Gloria. I’d like to explain the
plot but I’m not really sure it matters. A French game warden or
something like one — it’s not really clear, though she’s voiced by
Frances McDormand — is chasing after Alex and company after they break
into a casino in Monte Carlo. Don’t ask why; it’s not worth explaining.
What is worth explaining is McDormand’s character, Captain Chantel
DuBois, is a rather ridiculous, over-the-top cross between Cruella De
Vil from “101 Dalmatians”, Javert from “Les Miserables” and Linda
Blair’s possessed Regan MacNeil from “The Exorcist”. In order to hide
from her, the animals join a circus featuring a knife-throwing Russian
tiger named Vitaly (Bryan Cranston), who has an immediate disdain for
Alex and doesn’t believe Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria are circus
animals. Because they’re not. Sound interesting? Not very.
What will keep you hanging in there is the witty banter amongst the
animals, particularly Stiller’s Alex and Rock’s Marty. The best play on
words, however, belongs to Vitaly, when it seems he’s about to deliver
an expletive but replaces it with the word ‘Bolshevik.’ You’re going to
laugh when you hear it. Don’t worry, that’s not a spoiler.
Weak plot aside, there’s plenty of entertainment value to “Madagascar 3:
Europe’s Most Wanted”, especially for the kids. Still, McDormand’s
character is just plain bizarre and on occasion sucks the life out of
this movie. Otherwise, “Madagascar 3″ is a mishmosh of excellent
animation, a few funny moments for the adults and lots of cool stuff for
the kids to look at. The story’s not great but it’s good enough.
