L'Âge de glace fête Noël

It's Christmas season for the Ice Age gang. Sid accidentally destroys Manny's heirloom Christmas rock. Manny lies to Sid that he's now on Santa's Naughty List. Sid seeks to go to the North Pole to convince Santa to take his name off the Naughty List. He's joined by Peaches, Crash, and Eddie. They fall off a cliff and rescued by flying reindeer Prancer. Manny, Diego, and Ellie set off to find them.

It's an Ice Age thirty minute Christmas TV special. It is what one expects out of that. It's fine for little kids. Santa and his minions are not necessarily the happy, jolly group. Ice Age is not the greatest animation franchise but it does work for its level.

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!

I enjoyed the first two movies, was mixed on the third and liked Scrat's Continental Crack-Up. I was anticipating Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas, and found it did live up to expectations. While short, perhaps a little too short, it is festive and fun, with the animation as great as ever especially in the beautifully detailed backgrounds and the music jaunty and putting you in the mood for the festive season. The writing even with the odd forced moment is mostly witty and funny(with Diego having the best lines), and the story is engaging and heart-warming with a warm atmosphere. I have always liked the characters and they are still entertaining, with Scrat stealing every scene he's in and Peaches is adorable, and the voice acting is solid across the board.

All in all, a lot of fun and perfect for the Christmas season. 8/10 Bethany Cox

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.

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.

Now it's up to Manny and his prehistoric posse to band together and save Christmas for the entire world!
