Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa is the 2008 sequel to the 2005 film, Madagascar. It was produced by DreamWorks Animation and was released last November 7, 2008. The film was distributed by Paramount Pictures.The movie starts in the past as Zuba (the alpha Lion of the Africa wildlife reserve), teaching his son Alakay (Alex) to fight. Then Makunga (the other Lion that is trying to snatch the title of Zuba) came and chanllenges Zuba. As the two Lions fight Alex was drawn out of the fence of the reserve and was catched by the Hunters. Zuba found out and tried to rescue Alex. But unfortunately, the crate where Alex was trapped fall on the cliff into a river which carries it to the sea. His crate eventually drifts to New York City where he is put on display in the Central Park Zoo. The movie cuts to the present, picking up where Madagascar left off. Alex, (lLiom) Marty,(Zebra) Melman (Giraff), and Gloria (Hipo) are boarding an airplane that will be catapulted with a gigantic slingshot. King Julian and Maurice go with them. Midway through the trip, the penguins discover they are out of fuel, but manage a gentle crash landing in an African wildlife reserve. They all meet their species, while the penguins stay at the crash site and repair the plane....
Alex reunites with his dad Zuba, and mom Florrie. Zuba's rival Makunga questions Alex and told that Alex should passed the right-of-passage trial for a for membership in the pride. But Makungas intention is to use Alex so he can steal the throne for himself. Makunga tricked Alex into choosing an exceedingly large and muscular lion as an opponent and he mistakenly thought that the test is a dance-off and was easily been defeated. Zuba, despite his disappointment, refuses to banish Alex from the pride and throw the throne. Makunga assumes the throne and ihimself banished Zuba and Alex along with Florrie. While Marty joins a herd of zebras, and discovers that each of the zebras is exactly like him, which makes him question how unique he is. Gloria meets Moto Moto as a potential mate. Melman becomes the giraffe herd's new witch doctor and helps animals with diseases and wounds. His new friends convince him he has "Witch Doctor's Disease" and has only two more days to live. As Alex and Melman talk over their problems with a zebra they think is Marty. Marty arrives and was offended to Alex that he cannot tell him from one of his "clones". Melman, was so sad and he burried himselp in hole with his head only on the top. He meets Julian and talk him that he should make the best of his last hours by facing and telling Gloria what he feels since he has nothing to loose. Melman found Gloria and Moto Moto on a secluded pool as Gloria tries to warm up to Moto Moto, facing Moto Moto and telling him to take care of Gloria for all the great qualities he himself sees in her, which moves Gloria.
As another conflicts arrives as the water waterhole dries up, all the animals panic. The animals asking Makunga what to do since he is now the King, and he replies that this should be settle in a fight. The other animals refuses since others are small and dont stand a chance versus the Lions. Alex came and volunteered to fix things up. As Alex and Marty trails the river, they found out that the New York vacationers build a Dam to support themselves off the reserve after getting lost in the jungle, led by Nana the Old Lady. Alex was caught by the humans, but Zuba rushes in in the nick of time. Alex intimidates the humans by performing as he had done in the zoo, and the humans recognize him as the same Alex the Lion from the zoo. Zuba realizes the importance of Alex's gift and joins in with him. Julian proposes the animals make a sacrifice to the volcano Gods to bring the water back, and Melman volunteers. Right before he jumps into the volcano, Gloria receives the news about Alex stops Melman from jumping the Volcano. They head off the reserve using the repaired airplane by the Penguins and the chimpz to rescue Alex and his dad Zuba. Nana was trying to defend the dam, but the penguins destroy it, and the water is brought back to the waterhole. Simultaneously, Julian and Maurice are horrified to find that Mort had followed them all the way to Africa, and they inadvertently sacrifice the pursuing shark (who had begun pursuing Mort earlier when Mort washed up on the shore) into the volcano instead, leading them to believe that they had brought the water back themselves.
Zuba recovered the throne and was given to Alex as an apology. The previous witch doctor returned and was just only lost and not dead, So the Giraffes and Melman was releaved that he will not die. The four friends decide to stay in Africa with Alex's family, as do Julian and Maurice, while the penguins take off in the plane for Skipper's honeymoon Skipper married a bobblehead doll found on the plane). The lions and their friends dance off into the sunset. The END...

Hi. I saw Madagascar 1 with my daughter and she loved it. She´s crazy about animals so every movie that includes them is a success for her. We also liked The story of a bee and Ratatuille, they were hilarious.
We´ll have to wait till this one is released in the video club.
Thanks for visiting my blogs and returning all my drops.
All the best. M.
