The Madagascar franchise has always been silly and madcap, but with “Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted,” the series takes a turn into the downright absurd. Not that that’s a bad thing. Alex (Ben Stiller), Marty (Chris Rock), Melman (David Schwimmer) and Gloria (Jada Pinkett Smith) are still living in Africa, but they have grown extremely homesick, especially Alex.
