在非洲游历了一圈之后,纽约中央公园的四位明星们继续着回到纽约,回到中央公园的旅程。不过,只要旅途中有猩猩和那群企鹅的“帮忙”,旅程就没有想象中的那么顺利。在蒙特卡洛的一家赌场里,由于大家的耍宝,大闹赌场,进而招致了心狠手辣的动物管理局上尉杜波依斯(弗兰西斯·麦克多蒙德 Frances McDormand 配音)的围追堵截。为了逃过追捕,大家逃进了一个在欧洲进行巡回演出的马戏团。在马戏团里,大家延续着“马达加斯加”式的幽默,笑料百出。虽然,欧洲这一路上的旅行并不顺利,不断受到杜波依斯上尉的追捕威胁,不过大家一直怀揣着回到纽约,回到纽约中央公园的梦想。在马戏团,还帮助了东北虎维塔利(布莱恩·科兰斯顿 Bryan Cranston 配音)、美洲虎吉亚(杰西卡·查斯坦 Jessica Chastain 配音)以及海狮斯蒂芬诺(马丁·肖特 Martin Short 配音)重拾对马戏表演的信心。

Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, which finds the Central Park Zoo escapees joining a traveling circus and participating in animated hijinks across Europe, once again utilizes the talents of composer Hans Zimmer (Lion King, The Dark Knight) and a host of familiar pop stars to provide musical fuel for the film. Five of the thirteen tracks are Zimmer instrumentals, and while they may not be as memorable as anything from the Lion King, each piece dutifully projects the composer's mastery of the genre. Elsewhere, Katy Perry lends the soundtrack her 2010 smash hit "Firework," Australian duo Yolanda Be Cool and producer DCUP supply the collection with their international dance hit " We No Speak Americano," and the cast lend their voices to wild renditions of the Spice Girls' "Wannabe," Nelly's "Hot in Here," and of course, C+C Music Factory's "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)."
