Why doesn't anyone ever talk about this movie?
This is a spinoff of the Madagascar movies that follows the penguins from those movies. I think this movie is better than any of the original Madagascar movies. First off, this movie is hilarious. The penguins are contrasted by another elite unit, the North Wind, who takes their job very serious. There were so many good moments where Skipper's personality would clash with "Classified" and I'd laugh every time. Skipper is such a well-written character. He has so many witty lines he says in such a nonchalant way. He has a false sense of confidence for the majority of the movie, so its funny to see stuff work out for the penguins even when they did something totally stupid. The first half of the movie was a masterpiece. The action scenes were executed brilliantly. The movie slows down for the last 30% or so. It degrades in quality slightly, but I'll let it slide because they had to end it somehow. I thin they tried to write it like the show and struggled to tie it all together. Best Moments Throughout the movie, Skipper forgets the name of the villain (Dave) and would always call him something similar like "Darrel" or "Dan". He does this several times throughout the movie, and I laughed at it a couple times. Near the end of the movie, Skipper goes way off and calls him "Ramirez" and I cracked up. Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC0LjIiC4tU The plane scene is my favorite scene in the movie. It's so rapid-fire and the penguins never miss a beat. When Dave bossed his minions around, his commands plus their names matched the names of some celebrities. Overall a seriously underrated movie and definitely worth a watch if you like to laugh. 8/10
