The Madagascar Trilogy is an iconic symbol of our childhoods. But there was another movie. Released at the same pace as the last 3, DreamWorks tried to make a spin-off movie with Penguins of Madagascar. It didn't do too well. Not a lot of us watched it I guess. So let's have a look at it now, 9 years on. Is it good? Is it bad? Was it worth it? Benedict Cumberbatch? This is DreamWorks Madagascar Spin-Off Movie...

...Hm! I'm not sure if this is the unpopular opinion but I really really enjoyed this film! The chaotic nature. The great gags. Call me a fan! Shame it never came back. 
Кино
This is Minions done right. Namely, no joke in every second, characters serving more than just comic relief, and not trying to pander to those who are fans of the series.
Anyone agrees?
Yeah characters are fun and have well... character. Some great action and doesn't feel like a commercial for toys but to have fun
Agreed, the story is pretty serious tbh
I somewhat grew up with the minions (it's been around for 6-7 years for me), and I still love it! But I do see how it is bad
@@Kooldood0874 To me, Minions isn't bad.
Just not the kind of movie you'd rewatch passionately.
@@kennydarmawan13 yeah. Atleast it wasn't despicable me 3 💀
I watched it recently, and it was so aware and blunt with how basic it was that it really allowed itself to be fun, especially the trying to become a valued and meaningful member of the team
This is the best thing to come out of madagasca
What buot merica
@@thekingofhorrorgameaquare1789 Agreed
Although we still don't have Madagascar 4 yet, Lets be glad Dreamworks blessed us with this movie
Yes
Unless Madagascar 4 becomes a soft reboot like Puss In Boots The Last Wish
@@PussInBootsTheLastWishFan2003 Madagascar 4 could come the same way puss in boots did.
It was planned for 2018
Removed from schedule because of a new policy of releasing 2 movies a year
The same way puss in boots 2 got released so maybe they could return and make this 4th and final movie in this saga
@@kamenhunter167 or Madagascar 4 will be a new beginning
@@PussInBootsTheLastWishFan2003 I think they said Madagascar 4 would be the final movie
The Penguins of Madagascar works better than the Minions, which itself is a spin off of side characters and comedy relief, however, there was more possibilities for the Penguins rather than the Minions, since the Penguins had more character development, and many of the Penguins moments had clever comedy, similar to Puss in Boots, another Dreamworks spin off.
I wanna see DreamWorks do more spin-offs.
@@bighand1530 theres an odd trend with dreamworks in which spinoffs tend to be truly great films instead of the regular average you'd expect
@@shitanotosaurus I noticed
@@bighand1530 did you watch King Julian and serial version of Penguins of Madagascar?
I don’t care what anyone says the Penguins of Madagascar TV show was a goat
Agreed
All hail King was also a goat
The penguins' TV show and AHKJ were peak comedy
Agreed
Ahkj had way more substance, but they were both really fun
It's great that you're trying out a new format, Dazz. I have a good feeling about this one.
This movie is hilarious. I especially love the gag, that the commands Dave gives to his minions, combined with their names form celebrity names. Dave overall is a really funny villain, and the Penguins are as loveable as ever, especially Private, who had a pretty good arc.
This comment reads like a graded reply on an online-class discussion post.
But you're totally right!
One thing i love about the movie is the octopus named we're Actor name pun like "Nicolas,cage them" or "Drew! Barry! More power!" "William,hunt them down!"
“Kevin, bake on! We’re still gonna need that victory cake.”
Elijah would you please take them away
No, William's was 'William, hurt them!'
“Charlize, they’re on the ray!”
It's HELLEN, hunt them down.
5:31 "Disney announced it would be a full feature film"
Yes, because Disney owns penguins.
Slip of the tongue
I caught that too, thought i was tripping from not enough sleep 😂
I think that maybe this movie would have done better if it came out a few more years after Madagascar 3. Or at the very least, if it had a subtitle like what Wallace and Gromit and Sony's Pirates had. Maybe "Wrath of the Octopi" or "Artic Mayham." What it had was basically the same title as the Nickelodeon show.
Actually John DiMaggio is not technically the original voice of Rico. For the penguins TV show they decided to give some of the penguins professional voice actors, because the penguins were voiced in the beginning by DreamWorks producers. Kowalski was previously voiced by Chris Miller and then Jeff Bennet in the TV show. Rico was apparently first voiced by Jeffrey Katsenberg, although there are conflicting reports if John DiMaggio actually voiced Rico in Madagascar 2 & 3.
King julien was voiced by Keith Ferguson in the show?
@@lizlesbian660no is Danny Jacob
@@MccaulWilson who did you like better as king julien sacha or danny?
@@lizlesbian660 sacha and Danny as julien sound the same although Sasha's version of move it move it sounds good and Madagascar 3 afro circus/ move it move it was perfect way to end the franchise ( danny's version never stood a chance)
@@MccaulWilson i agree
I love the scene where the penguins seem to be stranded in the ocean, super hungry and see sick, while the north wind is having a 5 course meal, throwing leftovers in the ocean
I think "Pengwings" has been one of Cumberbatch's challenge words for a long time now, and I seem to remember him even being teased about it on an interview somewhere. Gotta love it. Lol.
2:31 Technically this was outsourced actually, it was done by Dreamworks Animation’s studio in India that usually helped finished scenes for their movies, this was their first full movie
This is ironically my favorite Madagascar movie
Same
same, but i'm unironic
You mean unironically, right?
fr it's so good lmao
Benedict's issue with pronouncing "penguins" happened in a documentary he narrated as well, and he brought it up while on a talk show. I forget exactly what he said, but I think it was because of his accent?
This is literally one of my favorite movies so I'm really happy that it's getting praise.
I feel like Penguins of Madagascar is better than the actual Madagascar series and I will die on this hill
Same dude!
With how great 2022 was for DreamWorks, I honestly kinda hope we get ourselves a Penguins of Madagascar sequel but...
with that *Spider-Verse animation.*
Same
Honestly, spider-verse animation works the best with the Penguins. Fast paced action with spider verse animation sounds awesome
you mean the Puss in boots animation
@@Boogywoogy9 no
@@Fan-imator let's hope it doesn't become oversaturated.
I adore how much better and likeable are the Madagascar spin-offs compared to the main Madagascar series
This movie and the Penguin's series were great
And the King Julien's series are awesome too.
Both of them have pretty awesome humour and better characters compared to the Madagascar movies
Please DreamWorks do a sequel to this movie
DreamWorks lost $50 million because of this movie. The odds of a sequel are unlikely.
Damn I never knew about the voice actor switch for Rico. Makes skippers later line “guess you’re kind of the same either way” hit different 😂
Surprised you haven't covered this film before.
Glad you liked it as much as I do. That observation about Cumberbatch I've seen before on Graham Norton, and it's still hilarious.
I love how this 'spin-off' has all the care and effort of a Madagascar film. With excellent direction in the action scenes, rather like the big chase scene in Madagascar 3. The plane scene in particular is so unique, I don't think I've seen an animated scene quite like it, even though Dreamworks also did the How to train your dragon films.
No matter what I will always love Benedict Cumberbatch's performance. Especially if he pronounces Penguin wrong, like Tom Holland and Croissant.
All I know is John Malkovich seemed like he had a blast doing that movie.
Something so great about these movies is that the first time watching them you don't usually notice much. But it's not until you rewatch them again, especially multiple times, that you start to notice the finer details and implicit tones.
I just came across this channel recently, but the way Dazz talks about camera angles in these movies, and how they convey a specific perspective to help emphasize the narrative... like damn, I never thought about that, you know? That just goes to show how well-made these movies can be.
Despite the failure this movie ended up receiving, I still think this movie was pretty fun, seeing the penguins doing their teamwork and Dave the octopus was a pretty fun and goofy villain as well.
It’s worth noting that this is the only Madagascar movie to not have the “move it” song at the credits, but instead, a catchy song sang by pitbull! Who knew? I did (and everyone else who saw this movie)👍
Seeing the video call scene with Dave and the North Wind in 2020 was so hilariously meta😂
Dreamworks was always better than Disney... Our nostalgia never let us accept that fact untill Disney literally started to spit on it's legacy.
I always preferred DreamWorks over Disney.
@@bighand1530 me too
@@yugiohgames104 Nice. And they have done some stuff in movies that I haven’t seen Disney do with their animated movies.
@@bighand1530 Mhm. I recently saw Puss in Boots 2 and it is excellent
for me I always loved disney when they do there 2D animation. But always loved dreamworks more for there 3D works of art.
"Kevin, bake on! We're still gonna need that victory cake!"
The part where they fly out of the plane will always be fun to see
This was honestly a great movie from my childhood, great video as always! 👍🏾👍🏾
The tv series is a blast and super underrated
I do have a soft spot for some of the action scenes in this movie. Like the canal chase and sky fall are really fun, creative and flow really well.
Really the team just had a lot of fun in the action in this movie.
Actually because the Pinguins series was extremely popular in Germany,but many peoples were extremely angry that the original voice actors weren’t used.
I would love it if the penguins get a sequel. I wanna see more of them again
This was one of the very few movies I seen in Cinema back then, but boy was it awesome
I haven't seen the movie, but I loved the TV show! The VA of Skipper was the director (I think), and it had similar beats and humor as described here. I'm guessing the same guy directed this movie. Maybe someday, I'll watch this movie, but my interest in watching movies and TV shows has basically dwindled down to zero. Watching other people discuss them for free here on RUclips is generally satisfying enough. Depression sucks.
Underrated film. nothing deep or substantial but tons of fun and surprisingly well developed message for kids, because it doesn't try to be preachy
Not without its issues, but low 7/10 movie
Agreed
Love the running joke of the celebrity names.
This cant have come out in 2014... i remember seeing this in theaters like it was yesterday, im not allowed to feel old yet😭😭
I have long forgotten all of the Madagascar movies, except this spinoff. I love it soooooo much!
It was talked about how there was fatigue for the Penguins, but not gonna lie, them being there and doing their Penguin thing was the best part to me. Like the villain showed up and it sorta dropped the likability for me. I was legit like "yea yea, villain ok, but when do I get to see Rico Caboom agan?" I was here for the Penguins doing their thing, and got doofinshmirts trying to compete for screen time lol.
My favorite joke is when they all say “hold your coconuts” and they lean downwards before putting actual coconuts on their head.
This and Puss in Boots are how to do Spin offs while Ice Age Buck Wild and LightYear are how NOT to do spin offs
Agreed.
I feel like Dreamworks wanted to make a movie about animals, didn’t like the idea very much, and slapped the Penguins in it!
Great video! Honestly this movie is is great and very underrated. It’s so charming & fun to watch
We asked and we received the penguin movie! But was it good? It was ok but was it better than king Julian’s spin off? I honestly am not sure
Honestly I enjoyed the king Julian show more
I liked it. But it’s not my favorite DreamWorks movie.
This is better than the actual Madagascar movies
This is one of those movies I'd be down to watch if I found it while flicking through channels. That's exactly what happened in my hotel room in Cyprus last year.
Plenty of moments in this film get a giggle out of me, like Skipper getting Dave's name wrong, Dave's celebrity pun commands, and the chaotic action scenes.
The problem i have with Penguins of Madagascar is how the hell did the animal get super advanced technology,weapons and jet without FBI/Humans finding out about it, and Dave being an Octopus built a Godzilla sized Octopus submarine without any Humans finding out about it? How exactly?
Idk how tf either of them got their hands or tentacles on that shit.
The same way four penguins broke into Fort Knox.
@@bluehydra2582 another good point
@@bluehydra2582 So basically…humans be dumb? Yeah that checks out-
Oh shut up, this is the same movie where the heroes talk to Dave like their relative when he can't figure out how to use a computer for their zoom call. Don't question it, just go along with it
2:59 all I can think about is Conrad Verner from Mass Effect
The five minute scene with them leaving one airplane, just to catch another one... then another one.. then finally landing on a bouncy house and having fun for an hour is one of the greatest 5 minute set pieces to ever set piece. SO. MANY. JOKES!!!
“And Disney announced it would be a full feature film, with the director of Megamind and writers of the bee movie”
I’m sorry
*What*
I'm just gonna say that I think Octavius Brine's (Dave's) introduction is actually super cool with how he stands on the ceiling.
I loved the penguins of madacascar tv show
I think it would be 99% better without the winter gang. It makes the penguins look weak compared to them.
I actually remember watching this theatrically. This was one of my favorite movies for a long time, and it still holds up well.
Is it a hot take to say that this is my favorite of the Madagascar movies?
14:09 lmao the voice crack
6:50 YEAH I MEAN.. I AM REALLY FOCUSED RIGHT NOW
8:08 actually the documentarian was a reference to Werner Herzog's Encounters at the End of the World. Werner Herzog actually played the documentarian as well.
I absolutely do not believe this movie failed due to franchise fatigue. We are living in a time where there are now SIX minion movies, soon to be FIVE Toy Story movies, THREE Frozen ones, 11 if not 12 Fast and the furious movies, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has been rebooted five time with SIX movies…need I continue? Also all the Star Wars and Marvel TV shows AND movies
Bro we NEED, to relax
Heyyyy! A friend of mine from college was a character modeler on Penguins of Madagascar! She told me their unit was right across from Avatar's, separated by a fake hedge.
A group of penguins is a rookery, not a colony. When I think “colony” I usually think of ants.
He keeps reversing the scenes and it throws me off so much
I can’t-😂😂😂 0:54
Penguins of Madagascar is great. Change my mind.
It is
I like it more than the Madagascar trilogy
@@bighand1530 I still prefer the third movie tbh
@@PussInBootsTheLastWishFan2003 Fair enough.
Octavius Brine in human suit looks frighteningly like Alton Brown.
11:18 Wait, people really expect movies to make more inside North America than outside it?
That's 370 million vs 6 billion (not counting countries where movies rarely get released at all)
Dave's minons puns were probably my favorite part of the movie
Same
is it me or the sheep in the movie looks EXACTLY like the sheep in HTTYD
It is. HTTYD 2 and Penguins came out the same year, which means they were being worked on at the same time. It wouldn't be out of the question for the people working on Penguins to borrow a sheep model from the HTTYD 2 team that was only gonna be on screen for a few seconds in order to save on time and resources.
Me watching him do movies I don't like: eh say what u want
Watching him do the nistolgiaic ones: 😳 I hope he likes it
On my top 10 favorite Dreamworks movies!~
8:10 Fyi: That probably was not a David Attenborough ripoff but rather a Werner Herzog "Encounters at the End of the World" ripoff
I really, really loved this movie and I'm surprised it didn't get as much attention. It was sooo funny and was like an extended episode of the penguins Nickelodeon cartoon with a little more depth, which was exactly what 10 year old me wanted. Still love it now.
My favorite thing is the wacky shenanigns the penguins do, like Cellspex says "it's like if Don Quixote's madness could actually warp reality"
5:32 Disney announced the dreamwork’s movie that does not make sense
5:31 hol up…
Has anyone noticed the scene of the penguins flying the jet reminds you of that how to train your dragon scene
Honestly loved this movie when it first came out. Normally my family that watches the movie together but for some reason it was just me, my dad, and my aunt when we first went.
They also had there own show
I thought Penguins Of Madagscar was just alright but definitely not as good as the 3 main Madagascar movies or as good as another spinoff DreamWorks duology Puss In Boots.
Also 5:30 You accidentally said Disney isntead of DreamWorks.
Why do animated baby penguins have to be so cute?🥹
Why didn’t they get the actors who play Kawowski and Private who voiced them in the series to voice them in the movie?
I dont know?
The villian of Penguins of Madagascar isn't any better than the villians of the other films but it doesn't matter because the movie is about the penguins and their moments and that's where it shines.
I can’t wait for this spin off playlist 😂
How did i not know about the credits scene till now!! I have this on dvd!!!
6:02 i noticed you called dreamworks disney
6:52
Ahhhhh that's the meme image!!
How’s this for the spin-off series: Night at the Museum: Kahmunra Rises Again
It was released on Disney+ late last year and it kind of sucks
am I the only that remembers they had their own show in 2008
0:12 it’s futurama
I really liked that movie
I'm sad you didn't mention the "countinue baking" joke bit
We want a sequeul but we dont NEED one. Thats what makes this movie great (that and Kowalski has always been my favourite) I LOVE it. Itll always be in my top 5 its my fricken childhood, anway... If we got a sequel then itd most likeky be great in an idea but with the movies nowadays itd probably suck... i mean it might be good but i think that dreamworks dropped that idea years ago.
also I was mad that he didnt mention Kowalski being a simp that made me lauugh so fricken hard as a kid.
Hot take: I think this movie was good, but it deserves a second chance. Just imagine if it got a phenomenal sequel, just like Puss In Boots! For example, I think the fight scenes with low frame rate would work perfectly in this case!
If you watch the scene carefully, you can see that it's going in reverse 2:34
So the new confuse the RUclips mothership is to play clips in reverse now?
Saw a few years ago for time on a streaming platform. Now I probarly rewatch it more the Madagascar movies.
The movie also have Mr Worldwide himself doing the Celebrate song.
They should make a crossover with Tusk
....say sike right now.
Bc tusk is a horror movie
3:40 top 10 best ways to blend in as a penguin
2:12 hello
This is Minions done right. Namely, no joke in every second, characters serving more than just comic relief, and not trying to pander to those who are fans of the series.
