Amazon.com Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs opens with the stitched-together prehistoric family about to become a biological one: Manny (voiced by Ray Romano) and his mate Ellie (Queen Latifah) are expecting a baby mammoth. Unfortunately, this makes Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo) and Diego the saber-toothed tiger (Denis Leary) feel left out. Diego, who worries he’s losing his edge, decides to head out on his own, while Sid adopts three suspiciously large eggs that he’s found through a crack in the ice. Up to this point, the movie is perilously sappy--does anyone, particularly a kid, want to watch a kid’s movie about parenthood and impending middle age? Fortunately, the eggs turn out to be dinosaur eggs from a pre-mammalian underworld, and when the mama T-Rex comes to rescue her rambunctious little ones, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs transforms into a delightful comic adventure. The emotional side of the Ice Age movies has always been a tad mawkish, so it’s smart that Dawn of the Dinosaurs emphasizes physical comedy. Clearly, the animators have been inspired by a wild fusion of Road Runner cartoons and Buster Keaton. The character of Scratte, with his non-verbal, monomaniacal efforts to get that last acorn (doubled in this movie with the addition of a female counterpart), is only the most obvious reflection of this sensibility. The animators have great fun with the differences in scale between the mammals and the dinosaurs, and the introduction of a deranged Australian weasel named Buck (Simon Pegg, Shaun of the Dead) pushes everything into Loony-Tune territory. Let Pixar tug at our heartstrings; Ice Age aims to tickle the funny bone and does a fine job of it. --Bret Fetzer

Good fun for the family March 15, 2010 DJJ (Milan, MI United States) This movie was as good as the first and better than the second Ice Age movie. My kids loved it and watched it over as many times as they could get away with it. The character Buck is outrageous and very funny. It does get a little silly in a few spots, but it is for kids. All around good movie.
ICE AGE IS HOT! March 11, 2010 David L. Ritter (San diego, CA) We received the order quickly and expeditiously.. in fact, it came in sooner than expected. Awesome movie!
Ice Age 3 March 11, 2010 Valerie Mollema (USA) Very FUnny, even has some hidden adult humor in it so that it is entertaining for all ages.
Part of the Ice Age video collection March 10, 2010 Beverly Cross We enjoyed this along with the "Ice Age Collection" of DVDs. Adults and the children gave it thumbs-up and had lots of laughs.
Ice Age 3 March 7, 2010 Avis Gill (New Auburn, WI USA) This is a really good family movie. I just love the prehistoric squirrel and his antics. I recommend this movie highly!
