"Una cinta digna de pelear con los estudios y empresas fuertes en el área y una historia entretenida y divertida que incluye los elementos claves del éxito comercial"
Cinenganos
Alex Ramirez
"Manfred, Sid, and Diego demonstrate the old Ice Age adage that a friend is someone who knows all your faults and likes you just the same."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
2.5/5
"Dull... monotonous... no surprises."
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
5/5
"Loved it, loved it, loved it."
eFilmCritic.com
David Cornelius
2.5/4
"As a pre-historical/hysterical document
Ice Age
is more than a little suspect but its signature squirrel more than makes up for it. "
Movie Boeuf
David N. Butterworth
C+
"The film has too many spots where it's on slippery footing, but is acceptable entertainment for the entire family and one that's especially fit for the kiddies."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
2/4
"In the annals of big-budget, modern-day animated excursions,
Ice Age
is one of the lesser efforts."
TheMovieBoy.com
Dustin Putman
2.5/4
"Leguizamo's motor-mouth sloth has more punch n' bite than Eddie Murphy's ***."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
3/4
"Because the title suggests a step back and its familiar story doesn’t break new ground, there’s no reason to dismiss Ice Age, an enormously fun film for all ages."
eFilmCritic.com
Erik Childress
C+
"The animation in 'Ice Age' is definitely cool, but in terms of story and characterization it's rather mushy, a prehistoric retread of 'Monsters, Inc.'"
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
"A very entertaining family film with a relevant moral: in a dangerous world looking out for number one just won't cut it."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
3/4
"Kids, of course, will love
Ice Age
. Adults will be entertained, but no more."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
3/4
"funny and sweet and often clever, but it sometimes feels a little too formulaic"
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
7/10
"
Ice Age
has an unexpected warmth and enough funny lines to make this prehistoric road trip a family-friendly journey."
DVDTown.com
James Plath
4/5
"Computer-animated fable has newfangled look, old-fashioned laughs."
Netflix
James Rocchi
3.5/4
""Ice Age" yields to the temptation of conventional animation standards, but it does so with a clean style and authentic humor."
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
5/10
"It has nary an original frame in its digital reel."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen
6/10
"Not bad, but certainly not as continuously fun as its trailer ..."
Screen It!
Jim Judy
6/10
"I would recommend this film more to kids than adults..."
JoBlo's Movie Emporium
JoBlo
7/10
"I'm not the world's biggest fan of animated films, but this one had me smiling."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
6/10
"
Age
doesn't come close to the triumph of
Shrek
or
Monsters, Inc.
, though it's not nearly as dull as Fox's previous cartoon offerings."
Planet Sick-Boy
Jon Popick
3.5/4
"Un triunfo de la animación y una muestra de lo que se puede lograr dejando volar libremente la imaginación de chicos y grandes."
Moviola
Jorge Avila Andrade
2.5/5
"Adequate but not nearly up to snuff. Unlikeable protagonists."
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
3/4
"... nicely entertains and gives all audiences something to enjoy, which is always the goal for any would-be blockbuster..."
MovieCrypt.com
Kevin A. Ranson
4/5
"a cute film in its own right, and the character that is most to thank for this is the saber-toothed squirrel Scrat"
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
A-
"I laughed more at "Ice Age" than at "Shrek" and "Monsters Inc." combined."
Countingdown.com
Larry Carroll
B
"may recall "Shrek" with its giant beast pestered by unwanted companion and "Monsters Inc." with its baby returning plot"
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
3/4
"A funny and lighthearted three-dimensional cartoon. Inspired and imaginative humor."
Movie Reviewing Teens
Mark Dujsik
3/4
"To complain about the lack of originality is to ignore the real wit and joy behind this very fun film."
Mr. Brown's Movies
Michael Dequina
3.5/4
"I think it's a safe bet that
Ice Age
will be a front-runner for next year's Best Animated Film Oscar."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
4/5
"The fur and feathers, the glint of the sun on ice, and the soft sparkle of the snowflakes falling at night are perfectly rendered. And it's very funny."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
3/5
"A Era do Gelo diverte, mas não convence. É um passatempo descompromissado – e só."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
4/5
"Scrat, easily the runaway star of
Ice Age
, is a wonderful wordless creation."
eFilmCritic.com
Rob Gonsalves
3/4
"Cute, funny, heartwarming digitally animated feature film with plenty of slapstick humor for the kids, lots of in-jokes for the adults and heart enough for everyone."
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
B
"It is not of the same knock out caliber of “Shrek” or “Monster’s, Inc.” but “Ice Age” packs a respectable punch of its own."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
72/100
"It’s a good thing that woolly mammoths are extinct, because this movie will have every kid in the schoolyard wishing for their very own."
Apollo Guide
Scott Weinberg
B-
"Think of it as "The Jungle Book" with a case of frostbite."
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sean Axmaker
D
"Needs a hit of Ritalin as much as it needs an original idea."
Eclipse Magazine
Sean O'Connell
B
"Has neither the invention and creativity of
Monsters
nor the satiric wit of
Shrek
, but it still emerges as the best new family film of the season."
Decent Films Guide
Steven D. Greydanus
1.5/4
"Dreadfully inanimate for an animated entertainment."
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
2.5/4
"Aiming for cheap laughs and situational humor that doesn't appeal to the emotional side of its adult audience. "
