Featured review
So much fun, perfect for Christmas!
I enjoyed the two Madagascar movies, and also found much to like about Merry Madagascar, but I liked The Madagascar Penguins in a Christmas Caper better than either put together. I loved it, although the title is perhaps a little too obvious, and found it so much fun. I do agree that the story is secondary to the animation and gags, but that is not disputing it in any way, it is still a solid one. It's just that the animation is so clean and gorgeous, and the writing and gags come by thick and fast and hit the mark every time(and there are a lot of them). The soundtrack is suitably rousing and festive, the characters have great personalities and the voice work is done with lots of enthusiasm. In conclusion, so much fun and highly recommended. 9/10 Bethany Cox
