An average movie

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for the first installment, I thought I might as well check it out (I even saw it the movie theater with my step-son). First of all, I really enjoyed the first Ice Age movie but, honestly, who would have thought that it would become such a huge franchise?!? By now, they have made 4 installments, all really successful, and they are already working on a 5th one. Personally, I could have done without the sequels but there are not that bad and rather enjoyable especially if you have some low expectations. The other interesting thing about this flick is that it was also the first movie I saw in 3D just when the whole 3D hype started. Eventually, I thought that the 3D effect was not bothering but it was also not mind-blowing either. Eventually, it seemed more like a good excuse to make you pay even more for your theater tickets and, since then, I try to avoid all 3D flicks (if possible) and watch instead the 2D versions. To conclude, even though it was nothing really amazing, it remains a decent watch and, if you enjoyed the previous Ice Age installments, you will definitely enjoy this one as well.
