Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa

Move It, Move It.

The gang from Madagascar are back for more of the same. In a major plot innovation, they crash land in an African game reserve while en route back to the US. Now instead of having to deal with the jungle, it's the open savanna. The friends are horrified to find hundreds of other animals who look just like them. In between trying to find a way back home, they also try to solve the mystery of the drying-up river.
