Pros: There are many very funny moments throughout this film.
Cons: The story itself is standard fare, and has no real surprises.
Summary: I truly enjoyed the first Ice Age, and purchased it on DVD when it came out. As soon as my son and I saw the trailers for Ice Age 2, we knew we wanted to see it. It opened this Friday, so we all went to see it. I won't make you read to the bottom of the ... read more

Pros: Funny moments, Scrat
Cons: Possums, wee too unbelievable at times.
Summary: The first Ice Age (boy doesn't that sound weird) introduced us to Manny the Mammoth, Sid the Sloth and Diego the Saber-Toothed Tiger, not to mention comic relief Scrat the Squirrel. Ice Age had a touching story, good character interactions and enough ... read more

Pros: some funny moments, returning characters, great animation
Cons: a weak plot, some aspects that seem to drag, needed more depth, rehashed themes
Summary: With the immense international success of Ice Age back in 2002, it was unavoidable that there would be a sequel in the works. Even if it may have been hard to imagine the premise for a second film, 20th century fox brought a brand new animated story to ... read more

Pros: computer animation, some funny lines and inspired set pieces
Cons: boring, derivative, often uninspired
Summary: Every now and then I feel myself leaning into the wind, reminded that my movieging experience may be different from everybody else's. That's the case here because, for me, Ice Age 2: The Meltdown was an exercise in boredom. I won't go so far as to ... read more

Cons: None really.
Summary: Introduction Ice Age was one of my favorite movies and during the course of the movie, I really fell in love with Manny, Diego, Sid and of course Scrat - the nutty squirrel. So when I heard that they are back, I ... read more

Pros: New characters work, some real lol moments, funnier that the original.
Cons: Some language, not realistic in any respect
Summary: I of course like most of the people that saw this picture went with a child (my 3 year old son). The film was intended to please him, so I was not expecting anything special out of a sequel to a so-so original movie. I was a bit surprised that I ... read more

Pros: good animation, good characters
Cons: Could have had a bit stronger plot
Summary: While nothing in this film is scientifically correct, it is a good time for the whole family. I laughed and laughed. Ice Age: Meltdown is the sequel to Ice Age which was released few years ago (2002) and was itself rather funny. I would ... read more

Pros: Great Animation and jokes.
Cons: Nothing.
Summary: It has been almost four years since audiences last embraced the animated misadventures of a pack of prehistoric animals in the runaway smash “Ice Age”. As the calendar moves into spring the multiplexes throughout the land prepare to welcome the arrival ... read more

Pros: Funny and entertaining, sometimes surprising
Cons: Focuses too much on less interesting characters
Summary: Ice Age 2: Meltdown is the follow up to the highly successful Ice Age, an animated movie made in 2002 and one of my all-time favourite animated movies. Unlike the previous movie, Meltdown concentrates solely on the animals – not a ... read more

Pros: Family movie, great animation.
Cons: None.
Summary: My family enjoyed the original Ice Age movie when we saw it in the theater about four years ago, so when we began seeing coming attractions for Ice Age 2: The Meltdown, we knew we would be seeing that one as well. Though you might be more ... read more

Pros: Original cast, loads of Scrat, adults and children alike will enjoy.
Cons: Occasionally slow paced, some may find some of the humor off-color.
Summary: My wife, brother and I wanted to go to the movies, but were disappointed at the choices we had this weekend. Should we watch Tim Allen be a shaggy dog? Slimy, crawling, slithering things? Chick flicks? It seemed the only thing that slightly caught our ... read more

Pros: Visuals, generally funny, clean, interwoven story of Scrat, for the whole family
Cons: Slightly slow paced, for some too childish (not deep enough)
Summary: It has been 4 years that the first Ice Age happened and here is another one defying laws of nature and mostly obeying laws of marketing. A sequel of a successful movie is sometimes a guaranteed cash-in but also equally hard to impress anybody with. ... read more

Pros: Wonderfully written, performed, and animated
Cons: What's not to like?
Summary: Great sequels are all too rare, but Ice Age: The Meltdown can be counted among them. Any movie that can plausibly depict a perilous flood being negotiated by a curmudgeonly mammoth, a malcontent tiger, and a lisping sloth has earned its props. ... read more

Pros: WONDERFUL
Cons: NONE
Summary: Animation amazes me. Thank goodness for my 5 year old step son. He gives me the excuses to buy all of these movies to enjoy. I love this movie. Slap stick humor and great
