Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa: The IMAX Experience
In MADAGASCAR: ESCAPE 2 AFRICA, all of the loveable characters are back -- Alex the lion, Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo, King Julien, Maurice and the penguins. Left marooned on the distant shores of Madagascar, the New Yorkers have hatched a plan so crazy it just might work. With military precision, the penguins have repaired an old crashed plane -- sort of. Once aloft, this unlikely crew stays airborne just enough to make it to the wildest place of all -- the vast plains of Africa itself.
MADAGASCAR 2 has been digitally re-mastered into the IMAX format and receives a simultaneous release to IMAX and conventional theaters November 7, 2008.
