Funniest Movies for Kids....The interaction between the two is hilarious throughout the whole film and the animation is wonderful.....This Disney/Pixar movie has a simple plot....I must say that I love the performances by Ray Romano and John Leguizamo.....It is another one of those talking animal movies who are voiced over by some well known actors..... ...

Yet, for all its familiarity, this story is well told in Ice Age its well told and beautifully composed.
While Ice Age might fall in parts within these limitations, it also exceeds them in several respects.

Like its recent predecessors, Ice Age 's animation is a marvel;....the story takes place during the evolutionary turmoil of the Ice Age.....While Ice Age might fall in parts within these limitations, it also exceeds them in several respects.....In many ways, the story is immaterial....his antics will amuse audiences from the very beginning to the very, very end of the film (stay through the credits)..... ...

It's a really cute, funny, family movie.

Take your parents if you like, they too will enjoy the movie.

This movie is as slick and clever as the first, but the CGI has made some astounding leaps forward since the original ICE AGE .
Blue Sky and 20 th Century Fox have done it again with ICE AGE 2: THE MELTDOWN delivering a film that is as charming and cute as the first, but with wittier humor and a new batch of characters This sequel is a zany romp through the end of the ice age and follows the adventures of the same �pack� that we grew to love last time around.

Reviewed: April 2nd, 2006 Four years after the first Ice Age was released, Fox finally releases its sequel and unlike most sequels, this one is actually a worthy successor to the original.
The writing is as sharp as the original and features some very funny moments.

Like the original Ice Age , in many ways the sequel is a celebration of the kind of unconventional families that don't fit the red-state profile.
It's something rarely even attempted in an era when the goal of animated filmmaking often seems to be cramming in as much mile-a-minute, gag-laden dialogue as possible between the poop jokes.

The CGI animation is gorgeous.
Ice Age 2 also ramps up the special effects.
They're putting their emphasis on getting a good script and tailoring the film to the story rather than big special effects.

In the end, Ice Age provides a moderately enjoyable flick and nothing more.
Ice Age offers a decently attractive and well-executed piece of animation
Movies don't need to be wholly original to be good, so Ice Age still had a lot of potential.

For starters it is an animated film with such great animation and fluid motions that it seems real.
The animals in the movie have well human qualities.
Alright so the movie is funny, but that will only take an audience so far.
