Fun ass movie that is nothing but fun Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/25/25 Full Review juniper M. Great humor and just a fun time. The plot isn’t the best and the villain isn’t my favorite but the humor alone is worth the watch. the north wind story was a little forgettable to me but classified was a great character. overall a very rewatchable movie with a hint of action and is carried by the penguins. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/13/25 Full Review BRizz 2 Penguins of Madagascar is a fun and energetic spinoff from the beloved Madagascar franchise by DreamWorks Animation. While the original films did a great job introducing us to this quirky group of penguins, led by Skipper, Rico, Private, and my personal favorite, Kowalski, this movie takes them on their own unique path—separate from the original Madagascar storyline. That said, this film doesn’t quite feel like a natural extension of the franchise. It lacks some of the heart and familiarity of the earlier films, especially for those who haven’t seen Madagascar and therefore miss the context of where the penguins came from. I wish the movie had included a bit more background for newcomers or casual viewers. The animation is vibrant and sharp, and the addition of new characters—while adorable—felt underutilized. They were introduced, served their moment in this one story, and then disappeared without any further development or return in later entries. That was a bit disappointing, especially for characters that had charm and potential. This film is clearly aimed at a younger audience, and for that demographic, I think it works well. It’s silly, fast-paced, and filled with visual gags that younger kids will enjoy. But as someone in my 40s, I found it hard to stay engaged the whole time. The pacing felt drawn out, and it just didn’t land for me the way some animated films do when they balance humor for both kids and adults. That said, I wouldn’t call it a bad movie—it’s definitely entertaining for families, and I’d recommend it for children or fans of the penguins themselves. But it’s not a film I see myself revisiting anytime soon. 🎬 Fun, quirky, and kid-friendly, but not quite built for older audiences.
