Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
Stampedes into the IMAX November 7

Full-Length Feature Film

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, from DreamWorks Animation, has been digitally re-mastered into the unparalleled image and sound quality of The IMAX® Experience through proprietary IMAX DMR® technology. 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. You and your family need to move it, move it to the IMAX theatre to catch this crew’s latest escapades.
