 Madagascar Movie - The Hollywood News
Madagascar is the latest computer animated concoction from Dreamworks, and while it certainly looks good, it can’t hold a barbecued weed-rat to the likes of Shrek.
Madagascar looks spectacular, and the tone of the film is more old school than contemporary (think Rocky and Bullwinkle), although some of the film’s funniest gags (including a clever riff on American Beauty) are taken from more current headlines.
I also like the film’s introduction to a massive family of lemurs who engage in a rave that proves the be much funnier than the unintentionally hilarious rave in Matrix Reloaded, as well as Alex’s comeuppance as to his real status in the wild.

 Movie Review: Madagascar at Netsua.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Madagascar is about a group of animals living the life in the Central Park Zoo, one that I have visited many, many times.
So the movie is really about 4 loveable characters (well… 3 - all the giraffe doess is look tall) who have to adapt to a new environment.
So Madagascar is a sweet children’s computer animated film that kids will love and the parents will probably also laugh at a few jokes here and there.

 Madagascar Movie Review - Madagascar Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
So that deflating sound you hear is ''Madagascar" itself entering theaters: Antic, cute, scattershot, it's a remarkable-looking but terribly uncertain bit of CGI fluff, with its richest humor off to the sides of the action and a whole lot of average in the middle.
''Madagascar" shakes a few solid laughs out of these citified animals -- I loved the chimp whose morning routine consists of fishing a cup of coffee, a bagel, and the Times out of a trash can -- and it introduces an element of prankish anarchy in a quartet of penguins making a jailbreak for Antarctica.
In all, ''Madagascar" is a step up from ''Shark Tale," DreamWorks Animation's last outing, but it still lacks the simple narrative elegance Pixar seems to have patented.

 Lee's Movie Info - Madagascar Review
Madagascar does not take place in a land far, far a way, or in a robot city, or in an enchanted underwater city.
The movie begins in Central Park Zoo where Alex the Lion (Ben Stiller), Marty the Zebra (Chris Rock), Melman the Girraffe (David Schwimmer), and Gloria the Hippo (Jada Pinkett Smith) prepare for a day of performing tricks and posing for pictures.
Not all of the gags in Madagascar are as memorable but they are very well assembled acts of physical comedy that should have parents and kids in stitches.

 "Madagascar" Movie Review by Kevin Carr - 7M Pictures
The movie tells the story of a group of animals in the Central Park Zoo who escape to the Wilds.
When it comes to story, don’t expect to be blown away by “Madagascar.” We’ve seen much of the plot before - maybe not in the exact sense, but the story of animals (or people) longing to be free has been almost done to death.
The chance of someone enjoying this movie is almost entirely dependent on whether they want a great plot or are happy with just the jokes.

His three pals tag along, but when they finally make it to the lush jungles of Madagascar they find freedom might not be all it's cracked up to be.
'Madagascar' makes for a pleasant enough hour-and-a-half, but it's fair to assume it won't be joining the ranks of the all-time classics any time soon.
What's more, the writing team's efforts at lampooning movies of bygone years ('Castaway', 'Planet of the Apes' and American Beauty are among those referenced) have all been seen before: frankly, it's a lazy comedy tactic which is swiftly growing a beard.

 Madagascar Movie Review at Hollywood Video
The penguins are the funniest things in the movie, but they are almost irrelevant to the plot, aside from alerting Marty to the existence of an outside world.
But it's something that hundreds of children's movies have done before (if not the predominant theme of the genre, along with "be yourself"), and many have done better.
Between his hypochondria and that long neck, he is the most purely idiosyncratic and comic of the four, and, let's face it, with that slow as molasses, whiny voice, Schwimmer was born to be a cartoon character.

 Madagascar - Rotten Tomatoes
Madagascar is content with being a genial kids' movie, cute, sporadically clever, rarely memorable.
Nearly all of Madagascar's laughs come from the supporting characters, and from a movie that stars Ben Stiller and Chris Rock, that's a pretty telling statement.
The movie's celebrity voice talent is reined in, and potentially scary parts are toned down, ensuring that even very young kids will appreciate most scenes.

Infact a movie about superheroes (Incredibles) itself is totally cliched but it was the story and turn of events that gave a wonderful impression to the viewer.

This movie focuses on four residents and stars of the Central Park Zoo in New York City who are also best friends: a lion (Stiller), a zebra (Rock), a giraffe (Schwimmer) and a pregnant hippo (Smith).
Having had humans take care of them their entire life, the four know nothing of surviving in the wild, or that one of them, the lion, is genetically predisposed to eat his three best friends.
Whereas other upcoming DreamWorks CGI movies are focusing on visual details, this movie appears happier to soften the details and bend things to fit into an overall painterly diorama.

DreamWorks’ Madagascar is a film the whole family is bound to enjoy.

Some funny visuals as well (won't spoil those here) but this movie is nowhere in the league of Shrek or the better Disney stuff, and certainly not as funny as the highlight reel that was the trailer being shown for the last couple of weeks on television.
If you haven't gone yet, you might want to wait until it hits your local second-run discount theater, or just rent it because as another poster mentioned, it is in no way worth spending $50+ for a family of four.
