Read The Secret Life of Pets review: Toy Story reborn … with cuddly animals But now, instead of appreciating it for the mildly funny running gag that it is, I can only feel sorry for them for having to rely on it so pathetically. It’s been five films, and once again, the lovelorn Scrat, and his Wile E Coyote-style hijinks remain the only parts of this movie that can honestly qualify as watchable - him and a weasel Neil deGrasse Tyson. Like Scrat and his Sisyphean quest for that elusive acorn, the Ice Age series teases us with the tantalising possibility of an apocalyptic event ridding us of it, only to pull a fast one, and return, smirkier, stupider and more cynical. In this one - the record-breaking fifth time we must endure Sid, Manny and Diego as they burp, fart, sneeze and snore through one slapstick gag after another – a meteor is headed towards their homes, promising to obliterate all that they know and love.īut no such luck.

It would solve all our problems and cure all our pain if I were to simply dismiss it as a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad experience that I would never, ever, under any circumstance or through any vengeful temptation wish on my worst enemy.īut then, what be the difference between me and Ice Age: Collision Course.īefore we get into the finer aspects of this spectacularly awful movie, let us ponder this, together, if you will: Could there be a more pointless film franchise than Ice Age? Unlike all the Saws and Paranormal Activities and the Final Destinations – which are all, thankfully, over – Ice Age continues with the inevitability of that long overdue apocalypse that refuses to show up and wipe these creatures out once and for all. On one hand, it would be best for everyone if I, without wasting any time, were to tell you – and you, equally efficient, were to agree - that it is an unbearably bad movie. Talking about Ice Age: Collision Course is not as easy as it should ideally be. Cast: Ray Romano, John Leguizamo, Denis Leary, Queen Latifah, Simon Pegg, Jennifer Lopez, Adam DeVine
