In addition to 2005's Madagascar and 2008's Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa, Zimmer is celebrated for his soundtracks to The Lion King, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, and many other titles. Zimmer has scored over 100 films.DreamWorks Animation SKG's Madagascar 3: Europe s Most Wanted, distributed by Paramount Pictures, finds Central Park Zoo's most notorious crew of animated characters led by Alex the Lion (Ben Stiller), Marty the Zebra (Chris Rock), Melman the Giraffe (David Schwimmer), and Gloria the Hippo (Jada Pinkett Smith) continuing their endless voyage home to New York. This time they take over and reinvent a down-and-out circus traveling across Europe, hiding out, doing death defying tricks (perfect for 3D), and making new friends.

Amazing Service
Of course, the disc is great fun and a joy to listen to at least twice per setting BUT, the real star of this purchase is the seller. The product was shipped with care and was as advertised: new and in original packaging. The only problem was, the original packaging was cracked. The seller sent along, at no charge, a replacement jewel case--the exact type*--as a replacement. *The case is clear and they sent a clear case. I would purchase from this seller again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend both the product and the seller.

A Poor Representation On Disc But Zimmer's Score Flourishes & Is Much Stronger Than #2
Sequels, sequels everywhere! For Madagascar's third outing Hans Zimmer returns to the helm to hopefully restore some dignity to the franchise after the will.i.am debacle that plagued the second film. The first Madagascar was a very funny character driven animated film that Hans Zimmer was able to enhance with a terrific score. The track "Zoosters Breakout" wasn't the central theme at all in the first film, but it was the most recognizable theme. The second film embraced it as the central motif, but the whole experience was plagued by will.i.am who actually got co-composer credit on the film. This atrocity was not Hans' doing, but Jeffrey Katzenberg who is not the most musically savvy producer. He actually wanted Timon and Pumbaa to perform "Stayin' Alive" to distract the hyenas in The Lion King. Luckily he was outnumbered and they kept the "dress in drag and do the hula" bit. Anyway, Hans Zimmer does find a way to give this adventure a European flavored score.We of course open with the "Zoosters" theme in the opening track, but don't worry he doesn't rely on it as heavily as he did in #2. He gives us some good score in the little we have on this CD. It seems Hans has been stuck in Europe for awhile between the two Sherlock Holmes films and this. The track "Light The Hoop On Fire!" has a lush Russian feel to it with a full chorus. Then the meat of the score on this album comes in "Recue Stefano", which is full of great arrangements and instrumentation. This is by far a great improvement over the enjoyable but will.i.am heavy Madagascar 2 experience. Is it clear that I hate will.i.am? Good. Anyway, the rest of the album is compiled of songs performed by Danny Jacobs of Phineas & Pherb fame. Just stay away from the "Circus Afro" version of "I Like To Move It" because it is quite annoying. Other than that Hans delivers enough change here even if it isn't represented fully on this album.Hans fans like me will enjoy the scraps of score found on this release. He is able to infuse the setting very well into the score while touching on the popular "Zoosters" theme briefly. The score is a good enough appetizer for Zimmer enthusiasts till The Dark Knight Rises next month.

The most fun album yet!
I bought this because of one song I loved that was not out as a single. Well, I'm so glad I did, because the rest of the album is so much fun to work out to, and listen in your car. I'm an older woman and can't believe I love a children's CD so much. There's music for every mood on this CD, from funky dance music to gorgeous soundtrack music.

Madagascar3 soundtrack captures flavor of movie
Madagascar 3 Europe's Most Wanted is the perfect ending to the Madagascar trilogy. The soundtrack captures all the fun & mayhem of the movie. Particularly Danny Jacobs (King Julien) does two wonderful parodies of popular songs; "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" and the Spice Girls' big hit "Wannabe". The finale is a new twist to King Julien's "I Like To Move It" and Chris Rock's "Afro-circus" in a wonderfully entertaining medley.

These never disappoint!
We have all the Madagascar music and films. Kids always enjoy singing along!
