Review of Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012) by Mike G — 20 Jan 2013

In this new installment, we find our favorite main characters from the.

Previous films (Ray Romano, Everybody Loves Raymond; Denis Leary,.

Rescue Me; John Leguizamo, Carlito's Way) on board for another.

Exciting, fun-filled adventure. What I really liked about Ice Age 4:

Continental Drift is the repeated theme of family and loving one.

Another no matter what, which is a great message for all ages and the.

Movie delivers it without being preachy. And even though it's not as funny as.

The previous three movies (due to there being more dramatic elements,.

Which made me feel for the characters more), there are still plenty.

Laughs to be had.

Now for the (very minor) flaws:

1. The teenage mammoth characters (voiced by rap/R&B singers Drake and.

Nicki Minaj and "Glee's" Heather Morris) are completely annoying and.

Useless, and they drag the movie down a bit.

2. The relationship/romance between Diego (Leary) and Shira.

(singer/actress/"American Idol" judge Jennifer Lopez) didn't get much.

Screen time or development.

3. The scenes with Scrat weren't as funny this time around, probably.

Because he's been overused, but he does get less screen time compared.

To the first two movies.

4. Overall the movie tried to cram too much into too little time.

Overall Ice Age 4: Continental Drift is a really good movie, you won't.

Regret seeing it.

Now please bring on Ice Age 5!!!!!!
