Magnificent family film with humor to be enjoyed by all, 5 stars! Now that's the short side of things continue reading for the full review. Well against all my dedication to not see this movie because Conrad Vernon had replaced my favorite voice actor of all time, John DiMaggio, I said I'll give it a chance. Besides it was family night and it was my little brother's choice anyway. So it starts off showing the origins of the Penguins with great jokes and gags, (they had Werner Herzog voicing a documentary filmmaker who tells his crew guy to push the baby penguins off the cliff to add tension to his documentary, if that isn't enough to get you hooked keep reading). Anyway, the current events story keeps rolling after the Penguins are shown escaping the circus from Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted. Its Private (voiced by Christopher Knights) 's birthday and Skipper (voiced by Tom McGrath) and the gang are going to break into Fort Knox. But they're not going in for gold, no, no, no, but something just or more valuable than that. CHEEZY DIBBLES!!!! Anywho while they're casualy paying for their cheezy dibbles an octopus takes them inside. They're transported to an evil lair where an evil scientist who turns out to be an octopus himself imprisons them to share his story. His name was Debby, Dietrich...no wait it was Dave(voiced by John Malkovich, yes John flipping Malkovich!), Dave was just a regular animal at the New York zoo until the penguins showed up and their surge in popularity made Dave an unwanted attraction. But no matter how many times they moved him the penguins would always show up and steal the show. Dave knew why the Penguins were so popular and now he wants revenge. The penguins aren't remembering anything so they just bust out of the lair which turns out to be a submarine and take Dave's method of revenge, the "Medusa" serum, with them. While trying to escape the octupi in Venice, Italy they get saved by a group of highly trained animal agents known as the North Wind. The operation is spear-headed by Classified (voiced by Sherlock himself, Benedict Cumberbatch) and consists of a demolition seal known as Short Fuse (voiced by Ken "Hungover" Jeong) , an espionage master owl called Eva (voiced by Annet Mahendru) who Kowalski (voiced by Chris Miller) can't stop crushing on and finally Corporal (voiced by Peter Stormare) a muscular Polar Bear who thinks the penguins are the cutest things in the world. Although they have a common enemy the Noth Wind is too technologically advanced to even think they can take the penguins along for the mission. Skipper however wants Dave stopped, sounds like internal problems might get the better of the groups before they even get to face Daniel, Dorry...oh wait, Dave.
