Ice Age: The Meltdown (Ice Age 2)
The pack is back.
Manfred (Ray Romano) the woolly mammoth and his lazy sloth sidekick Sid (John Leguizamo) return for another incredible adventure. The Ice Age is coming to an end, and the animals are delighting in their new world: a melting paradise of water parks, geysers and tar pits. But when Manny, Sid and their friend, Diego, discover that the miles of melted ice will flood their valley, they must warn everyone and somehow figure out a way to escape the coming deluge.

This was such a great animation from the start. It was so creative, but at the same time, it was great great movie. I loved their story which is easier for kids to follow, but also entertaining for an adults, too.... The animation became more realistic and motion made it seem perfectly great.ice age 2 review - ggunston
After really enjoying the first one, I did not think it was good as the first ice age, but is wasn't all that bad. My daughter thought it was great fun though. It was a decent way to pass a couple hours. Hopefully the third one will be as good as the first.funny funny and more funny - tlefrancois
Highly enjoyable film. Nary a dull moment as Diego, Sid and Manny find their way through the meltdown. The peril found in the first Ice Age movie was not duplicated here. The danger wasn't as imminent due to the fact that the meltdown is partly a blessing, while the ice age itself was all bad. A subtle flaw but not something the creators could avoid unless they wanted to make a "Mid-Ice Age" movie. How the tribe survived multiple thousands of years is not addressed, but who cares? Maybe they were actually living on the ecuator in the first movie and the ice caps just reached them in the final years of the ice age. A decade later, the climate warms up and causes the mixed emotions found in Ice Age II. The central theme of friendship in spite of differences and the humor found in trying situations plays well. Overcominging fears in the face of danger is a prominent theme. Jokes fly fast and furious for all ages. And the proto-squirrel steals our hearts with his absolute devotion to caching acorns. A strong production for Twentieth Century Fox.
