    I’m not going extinct !

    The problem I have with sequels, is that expectations are set from the original and filmmakers are expected to go one better. Often they fail. Luckily for us they still try. Following Ice Age 1, this had to be good, really good.

    After some years living in peace in a new pack, our old friends Sid, Manny and Diego discover that the ice is melting and a flood will cover the valley they now call home. Soon they organize a migration, but the trip won't be easy, especially for Manny, who begins to believe that he is the last Mammoth on earth.

    It’s a terrific animation, the delightful vocal performances of all the actors involved, and its irresistible imaginative charm. The old fashioned concepts of love and brotherhood do make their expected appearances but they are short and sweet and fit brilliantly in the film. In fact they are explained mostly through humour and this makes this film a near perfect family entertainment.

    A rare great sequel, a film that exceeds expectations and delivers to its maximum potential. This movie is an absolute must see.

    Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

    • 29 Jun 2009

    Fox Animation may be languishing well behind Dreamworks, Aardman, Disney and Pixar as far as brand recognition goes, but the popular Ice Age franchise and last year’s hit Horton Hears a Who! suggests that the studio is doing something right. Subtitled “Dawn of the Dinosaurs” (nonsensically: it’s set after their supposed extinction), Ice Age 3 is strictly surplus to all natural storytelling requirements. Make no mistake, it only exists because the accountants demanded it. Read more
