I am surprised by how positive some of the other user reviews have been. My kids and I could not bear to sit through this movie. While there were indeed some funny moments, the story and the dialogue were weak at best. This movie just does not compete with any of the major animated movies out there. It was a real disappointment as far as we were concerned and is not worth the time.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I did not know what to expect walking into this movie, but I did think it would be a much better movie. Much more could have been done with the plot, the lines and the cast, especially given the excellent performances by Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby.

Yes, I recommend this movie.

This is a brilliant comedy that is a must see for all mature teens and adults looking for a funny spin on the sad state of American politics. The cast is fantastic - not just Will Ferrell and Zach Galifanakis - but also Jason Sudeikis, Dylan McDermott, Dan Akroyd, John Lithgow, etc. If you're looking for loads of laughs, don't miss this movie!
Pros well paced, great actors, very funny
Cons none

This is a good remake of the original. Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel make many of the scenes easy on the eyes, while delivering a strong performance alongside Colin Farrelll. Overall, excellent non-stop action movie from start to finish with many good heart-pounding scenes.

Good overall Ice Age movie, but cerainly not in the same league as the first ones. The story is a bit weak, but it is full of laughs and Family fun making it a good movie.
