Ice Age: The Meltdown Reviews |
...delivers the kind of cinematic package they expect: cute animals, funny moments, and cartoonish action sequences. With the bar set so high by Pixar and Dreamworks, adults have come to expect more from animated films than Ice Age: The Meltdown delivers. [read review] 
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
The movie has a few decent jokes that kids won't get right away so it works for adults too – in very small doses. The story is not as good as the original and had it not been for the parts with scrat the squirrel, I'd probably still be sleeping. Little kids that just loved it surrounded me and if you are a parent and want to see your kids smile and laugh, this movie works... [read review] 
--JC (Moviesforguys.com)
To paraphrase Tuco in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, "There are two kinds of sequels in the world, my friend - those that broaden the film's universe and those with no reason for existing other than as a blatant cash-in." Happily, Ice Age: The Meltdown falls unequivocally into the former category. [read review] 8/10
--Paul Greenwood (FutureMovies.co.uk)
The inevitable "Ice Age" sequel, subtitled "The Meltdown," is as well-meaning and likable as its predecessor. Neither film is a classic, nor do they exactly brim with originality, but they serve up some laughs and do so without anyone getting hurt. [read review] B
--Eric D. Snider (EricDSnider.com)
Ice Age 2 works, if not as well as its predecessor, but it wants for that special something that makes Pixar's efforts such instant classics. It'll entertain well enough as it plays out, but it has no real staying power as you leave the theatre. [read review]
--Joe Utichi (FilmFocus.co.uk)
It’s fabulous to see past mistakes in “Ice Age” corrected for the newer model. Kids are going to love this latest round with their prehistoric friends, and, unlike last time, parents will have just as much fun with it. [read review] 
--Brian Orndorf (eFilmCritic.com)
"Ice Age: The Meltdown" was funny and entertaining, but I recommend it more for older kids. If you liked the first "Ice Age," you should be very pleased with this sequel. [read review]
--Scott Chitwood (ComingSoon.net)
So while “Ice Age: The Meltdown” may not be as good as its predecessor, it’s still a fun and entertaining movie that kids will enjoy (probably more than their parents)... [read review]
--Scott Mantz (MovieMantz.com)
The best thing that can be said for “Ice Age: The Meltdown” is that it is one of the rare sequels that bests its predecessor... [read review]
--David Medsker (Bullz-eye.com)
So long as they can maintain this quality, let's hope it isn't another four years before the next Ice Age. [read review] 
--Scott Nash (TheMovieBuffs.com)
Impressively animated, family-friendly comedy with likeable characters and some terrific comic set-pieces. [read review]
--Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
ICE AGE 2 needed nothing but Scrat to be the winner he never will be. And we all lose because it isn’t. [read review] 
--Andrea Chase (Killer Movie Reviews)
Ice Age 2 surpasses the original in every way. Fox Animation has a film to be extremely proud of. [read review]
