L'Âge de glace fête Noël

I'm basically older than rust - and my idea of holiday 'specials' is limited to the classics: 'Rudolph', 'Charlie Brown'... those modern cartoons that came out in the 80's were beyond lame, so I was somewhat suspicious of this when I first came across it.

Now that I've watched it twice (and will probably watch it again soon), I have to say, WELL DONE!! Modern, familiar characters - portrayed in true-to-character form - and presented in a short, family friendly format. HOORAY!! Family entertainment, happy ending - and lots of laughs for adults too!

So, added to my once yearly viewing with the aforementioned will be Scrat in his eternal hunt for the ultimate acorn.... and all the other 'Ice Age' alumni!

This short animation is about a young mammoth going to the North Pole to search for Santa Claus because she wants to prove to her father that Santa Claus exists.

Just as you think all tales about Christmas have been told, "Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas" comes up with yet another idea regarding the festive season. The animation is fun and entertaining. The characters are cute as usual, and they are up to much merry, harmless mischiefs. The atmosphere of the animation is warm, positive and has a strong family theme. The ideas about how Christmas traditions come about in the Ice Age world is fun as well, making it a great film for children.

Are you aware of the last one? Your favorite glacial heroes are rocking out in an all-new family-friendly holiday adventure!

When Sid accidentally destroys a piece that's been in Manny's family for years and ends up on Santa's no-good list, he goes on a hilarious trip to the North Pole to try to make things right...and how It always ends up making things worse! The only hope now is for Manny to reunite his prehistoric gang and save Christmas for the whole world!

Very cute as every Christmas special should be, fostering Christmas magic and belief in the Good Old Man, whether an adult or a child, the important thing is to maintain the fraternal spirit of Christmas, and we have the strong representation of friendship and union between characters and their diversities... cute...

When Sid accidentally destroys Manny heirloom Christmas rock and ends up on Santa's naughty list, he leads a hilarious quest to the North Pole to make things right and ends up making things much worse.

The animation was very well made and creative and very fun to watch with the whole family

The Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas was a pleasant watch. It's nothing groundbreaking, but as a Christmas special, it delivers exactly what it promises. There's no deep character development or major revelations, but that's expected for this type of movie. What I really enjoyed was seeing Manny's daughter and how she's grown - it's nice to follow this character progression. The special also captures each character's essence, presenting their personalities faithfully and creating a connection with the original franchise. In the end, it's a fun and light addition to the series, a film that preserves the spirit of the franchise and brings nostalgic moments for fans who have followed the other movies.
