Product Description
Double-bill of animated movies about a gang of prehistoric animals who become close friends. In 'Ice Age' (2002), the story begins at the dawn of the great ice age, when a group of three animals embark upon an epic journey. Sid the sloth, Manfred the mammal, and Diego the sabre-toothed tiger team up to help return a human baby to its father, and must risk life and limb as they traverse boiling lava pits and travel through dangerous ice caves to complete their mission. Along the way they also meet Scrat, a squirrel-rat determined to plant an acorn in a glacier. The film features the voices of John Leguizamo, Denis Leary and Jack Black. In 'Ice Age 2 - The Meltdown' (2006), Manny the woolly mammoth (voice of Ray Romano), Sid the sloth (Leguizamo), Diego the saber-toothed tiger (Leary), and the hapless prehistoric squirrel/rat known as Scrat (Chris Wedge) are back in this sequel to the popular 2002 film. Manny is ready to start a family, but nobody has seen another mammoth for a long time. In fact, Manny thinks he may be the last one. That is until he miraculously finds Ellie (Queen Latifah), the only female mammoth left in the world. The only problem being that they can't stand each other. Ellie comes with some excess baggage in the form of her two possum friends, Crash (Seann William Scott) and Eddie (Josh Peck), a couple of daredevil pranksters and cocky, loud-mouthed troublemakers. When a huge glacial dam holding off oceans of water is about to break, threatening the entire valley, the only chance of survival lies at the other end of the valley. So our three heroes, along with Ellie, Crash and Eddie, form the most unlikely family as they embark on a mission across an ever-changing, increasingly dangerous landscape.

I've always had a soft spot for funny animated films, and these are 2 of the best ones that you will ever see. Shrek and Toy Story led the way with films that appealed to kids but did not neglect the adult audience with elements of humour that ensured the older person would enjoy the movie as well.
The star of the show in the 2 Ice Age films is most certainly Scrat (the squirrel-rat), he is an absolute legend!! His short moments are the funniest without doubt, but the other characters are very likeable as well, most notably Sid the Sloth.
This double pack is a real bargain, as there are some decent extras on the DVD's as well. The rumour is, that Ice Age 3 will be released next summer and I am looking forward to the third part in this extremely enjoyable series.

The first Ice Age was new and fresh and it was filled with comedy, especially the dodo's and let us not forget that little squirrel chasing that nut! I feel sorry for the little guy! But the idea was original and entertaining for all!
The second Ice Age was good with slightly better animation, but lacked the attractiveness of the first movie. The comedy is still there, but that lovey dovey element has been added (not to an extent where it bothered me) but I felt that it was playing to the typical Hollywood stereotype... if you want to sell... you have to have romance! Not true! It was great to see that little squirrel still chasing after that nut!! This time he was really going for it... especially funny when he losses his cool and karatacizes anyone who dares touch that precious nut!!
All in all, a good pack with great money value... recommended for the whole family!

It was amazing to find this double deal for so cheap. Being a fan of cartoons, I always wanted to have these DVDs and there was no doubt in my mind when I saw both DVDs for five bucks. Ice Age feature is a great treat for all age and I love you see this again and again. Happy to own it.
