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

5 out of 5 stars looks fantastic on bluRay and passes the 3 year old test!   July 27, 2010
D. Chalk (Chicago, IL)
My 3 year old son watches it over and over by request. He sits thru the entire movie, which is rare as most parents can testify to. Looks great on BluRay, clever, touching and funny. My kid loves dinasaurs, so it's a natural hit in our house. Good buy at the right price.


4 out of 5 stars Iced Tea, anyone?   July 14, 2010
Ronald Sheets (Eureka, Il. USA)
I am not a movie reviewer, however, that said, I enjoyed this little Disney romp immensely, mainly because I think I'm a kid at heart.Blu Ray doesn't hurt, either. I'm too old for 3D...it would be more like 2 1/2D. I have always liked Raymond Ramano, so naturally, I enjoyed the movie due in large part to his characterization of the male mammoth. Queen Latifa was delightful also, but they both paled next to the portrayal of Sid, their friend. I would recommend this movie to just about anyone who enjoys fun stories.


5 out of 5 stars Best of the 3 ice age.   July 13, 2010
Fabricio Jimenez (New Jersey, USA)
I saw this movie in theaters and thought that was ok, I bought in bluray for my kids. I watch it at home and I really like it, now I think it's he best of the 3. PQ and SQ excellent.


5 out of 5 stars Love These Movies   July 12, 2010
Christina Lopez-Strother (Illinois, USA)
This is a great family movie. The whole family enjoys watching this along with all the other Ice Age movies.


4 out of 5 stars Problems with the blu-ray disc   July 9, 2010
Shelley R Powers (St. Louis, MO)
Whatever you do, don't take the option to download the software for blu-ray live.

I couldn't get this disc to play, and I have updated software and a new Sony blu-ray player. I can play Avatar, which is supposed to be one of the trickier blu-ray formats. I've never had trouble with any disc until this one.

These extra features are not worth the pain and hassle.

Once I removed the USB stick with the downloaded software, then I could access the movie. Save yourselves the pain and skip the "software download" for blu-ray live for this movie.

Other than this hassle, the movie is beautiful. Nothing shows blu-ray quality better than these computer animations.
