Ice Age 2002*Ice Age* is a likeable, briskly told comedy whose familiar story benefits from Ray Romano’s weary warmth. The banter sometimes tries too hard, but Scrat’s acorn pursuit supplies the simplest, funniest business.Fi1m 73 - 2
Ice Age: The Meltdown 2006Carlos Saldanha’s animated sequel has enough good slapstick to keep children amused, but its scattered story makes the quieter stretches feel like waiting. Scrat remains the chief attraction; the talking animals have less to say.Fi1m 61 - 3
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs 2009The third Ice Age moves its herd underground, where the colours are better and the jokes are not. Simon Pegg’s Buck and the Scrat interludes are worth the ticket for the under-tens; everyone else will find the mammoths have little left to give.Fi1m 56 - 4
Ice Age: Continental Drift 2012The fourth Ice Age is bright, short and perfectly amiable, with Peter Dinklage’s pirate ape the one addition worth the trip. Everything else is the herd doing what the herd has done three times before, a little louder and at sea.Fi1m 53 - 5
Ice Age: Collision Course 2016Scrat supplies the laughs in a crowded sequel that keeps interrupting an asteroid threat with wedding worries. Mike Thurmeier’s film has enough visual invention for a short, but too little story for 95 minutes.Fi1m 37
