Silly Animals, You Belong in the Zoo

For as long as I can remember it's been the "norm" to see wild animals in the zoo. Such is the case in the beginning of the movie Madagascar. It all begins with many small children, like in many zoos, surrounded around the lion exhibit.

A movie like this usually has a certain target group they want to bring in to see the movie. In this case it was children. Little did the people at Dreamworks now that this movie would bring in a variety of people. Ranging in ages from 3 all the way up to 70. I guess everyone like zoo animals.

I think there's one certain line that will stick with everybody who has seen this movie. "I like to move it, move it." Awesome music lyrics for a movie like this. This is probably one of the reasons why older generations came to see the movie. Just to see strange little lemurs sing a dance to that song. Crazy lemurs are the reason I went to see it. Those creatures were awesome

Maybe age really doesn't matter when it comes to animated movies. They can be fun for all ages. So, don't just think that because it's targeted more towards children that you can't go see it if you're in your twenties. Feel free to go see as many animated movies as you want now. Happy watching to you. :-)
