Pros: Good voice-overs from Romano, Leary and Leguizamo. Cons: Derivative story, humor not as subversive as it could have been.
Ice Age was third in line in the trio of CGI animated movies released in 2001/2002, coming out in March of 2002 after Shrek and Monsters Inc had already been massive successes respectively. I loved Shrek and thought Monsters Inc was pretty good in its...

Pros: Great animation, and the character from the trailer is fantastic. Cons: Said character is barely in the film, and the rest is uninspired.
I had high hopes for Ice Age after the massive amount of enjoyment I derived from Shrek and its Disney rival Monsters Inc. The lengthy teaser trailers relating the adventures of a little rodent trying to stick his nut in various...

Pros: funny and warm, even if it is predictable Cons: predictability, could be intense in spots for younger ones
I'm sure there were those who thought that the new CGI offering Ice Age was going to be Fox's lame attempt at entering a field in which Disney and Dreamworks has ruled the past few years. Last year alone, we had two of these movies in many...

Pros: Ray Romano, lots of comedy Cons: only an hour and a half
Well, well, well...I just got done re-installing Windows 98, and I was busy configuring everything back to the way it was(I’m still getting use to everything, cause it’s so different from what it was before I took Windows 98 off...now I’m trying to get...

Pros: entertaining, funny, great story Cons: none
When I first saw the commercials on television for the new animated film Ice Age, I knew I wanted to see it. So, I gathered up my 4 year old daughter, my 10 year old son and my reluctant husband and off we went to the theater.
After...

Pros: Funny family film with memorable characters Cons: You will go broke purchasing toys for your kids if they love this film!
For over a year, my youngest son has been hung up on a preview of the movie of Ice Age. Even when we purchased Dr. Doolittle 2 on DVD, there was a trailer of this movie on that disk that we had to play almost constantly because he fell in love...

Pros: Funny, Interesting, Good Plot, Interesting side story Cons: Not coming up with a con
What a great year, so far. I've been able to take my son to 3 films this year. He laughed hard at this one, so did I. The comedy is smart. I liked the fact that the comedy came in so many forms: visual (such as when the sloth is in a cave and sees an...

Pros: Wonderful animation, hilarious characters and situations. Good, clean family fun. Cons: Borrows somewhat from Shrek, in my opinion.
I usually have trouble dragging myself to the movies to see a movie that is less than 100 minutes long. A statement like this will likely draw gasps of horror from many here at Epinions, as the comment "I really loved this movie, but it was a bit too...

Pros: adorable critters, wonderful story, great CGI animation Cons: the most annoying bonus features I have ever seen! Scrat gets squashed too much
Rated PG for mild peril. They have got to be kidding. I have seen more “mild peril” in most Disney cartoons. Okay, there is a vicious tiger attack scene, but it comes out okay in the end. Blue Sky has done an amazing job with CGI (Computer ...

Pros: 77 mins of pure entertainment for you and the kids Cons: it eventually ends . . . . Awwwwww .
This film was released in 2002 by a company called Blue Sky in partnership with 20th century fox. Who obviously stumped up the budget, but out of that came a trully wonderful creation in it's own strange endearing kind of way. Cast yourself way back ...

by konspirator01 , Mar 13 '02
Pros: thoroughly enjoyable, a nice feel-good movie, good animation Cons: the plot's been done a million times, the movie blatantly rips off of other movies
I was really looking forward to the movie Ice Age having enjoyed Shrek and Monster's Inc immensely. It was not far into the movie when I realized how disappointing it was. I came in expecting the good jokes in Shrek or the...

Pros: great comedy for a family with older and younger children Cons: might be too scary for some children
My fiancé and I had been seeing trailers for Ice Age for quite awhile and he couldn't stop talking about wanting to see it. I just wasn't that excited- even though I normally really enjoy animated movies.
Anyway, my fiancé and I set out...

Pros: The whole movie! Hey, I'm easy, so live with it! Cons: A wee bit slow starting, even with Scrat and his acorn.
I love it! Kick me, bite me, call me names, Ice Age provided me with 81 minutes of completely enjoyable entertainment. In the words of the song, "Who can ask for anything more?"
OK, let's get to it so that you can decide...

Pros: great family movie, hilarious comedy Cons: none
The computer animated comedy "Ice Age" is an adorable family film that is a fun loving wintertime movie. Because of the cute, funny but yet sassy characters in Ice Age, it stands out as the film of times. Everyone who watches it will love it. I did, ...

Pros: kids will enjoy it, parents will find it inoffensive Cons: panders to audience, contrived situations, familiar characters, predictable story
The major studios learned from the flops of Titan A.E. (2000) and The Road to El Dorado (2000), and the huge success of Shrek (2001). The audience for animated films is predominantly children, and they want laughs even more than...
