Cast: Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett Smith, David Schwimmer, Sacha Baron Cohen, Bernie Mac, Alec Baldwin and Sherri Shepherd
Release date: November 7
Why you should see it: In a sequel to the 2005 hit, Alex the lion (Stiller), Marty the zebra (Rock), Melman the giraffe (Schwimmer) and pals board a New York City-bound airplane which, thanks to "repairs" made by the penguins, makes it only as far as Africa, where all the animals are forced to live among other animals of their kind for the first time.
Box office bottom line: You may be dying to see Quantum of Solace, but your kids are all about the funny animals, so... yeah, it's Madagascar 2 for you this weekend.
