ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE (Theatrical Release 2016)

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

Ice Age: Collision Course—great animated story—may need a little tweaking toward its final closing scenes, but that does not affect its overall entertainment value.  This is the last film in this series to feature the voices of Ray Romano, John Leguizamo, Denis Leary, Queen Latifah, Keke Palmer, Josh Peck, Sean William Scott, and Chris Wedge. The rumor is that Chris Wedge's character Scrat will no longer be part of the series. The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild is part 6 and serves as the last film in the series or the beginning of a new start for the series. Time will tell how successful it will be without the above talent.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Yes. This movie is well received by Ben Meyers International Movie Critics. It provides comedy, action, terrific animation, and serves a wide range audience. It does not exclude, it includes. It does not divide but welcomes all audiences. Great work for all involved in its production.

ICE AGE: THE MELTDOWN (Theatrical Release USA 2006)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì

Ice Age: The Meltdown—comparable to the first film—reprises most of the voicing talent and adds some new voices for new roles. Listen for Queen Latifah, Josh Peck, Sean William Scott, Will Arnett, Jay Leno, and cameo voices of Joseph Bologna and Debi Derryberry. The first film and the second film make good choices for additions to the family home video collection.
