Audience Reviews for Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted

  • Apr 24, 2014
    It was alright for a kids film. But I kept thinking Ben Stiller (Adam) sounded like Ted Mosby, which really made for a big distraction.

    Easily the best among the three.
    Super Reviewer
  • Jun 11, 2013
    Sweet and funny just as the prequels. I knew nothing would go wrong with the sequels.
    Super Reviewer
  • May 09, 2013
    Actually the best of the three. Had more laughs and heart than the other two films combined.
