Movie synopsis

In this computer-animated sequel to ICE AGE, prehistoric creatures face a new problem: their icy world is melting. Manny (voiced by Ray Romano), seemingly the last woolly mammoth on Earth, and his pals--a saber-toothed tiger named Diego (Denis Leary) and a sloth named Sid (John Leguizamo)--are perfectly content in their ice-covered valley. When con artist Fast Tony (Jay Leno) claims that their home will soon be underwater and the world is about to end, they think he's kidding. But to everyone's surprise, the shady fast talker is right. Manny, Diego, and Sid soon discover that the valley will flood in days. Following the advice of a vulture (Will Arnett) who is hoping for the worst, a bevy of animals begin to make their way to the end of the valley in search of a boat that will save them from the flood.En route, sad sack Manny is startled when he encounters another woolly mammoth, Ellie (Queen Latifah). As happy as Manny is to see another one of his kind, there's a problem: Ellie is convinced that she's a possum like her hyperactive brothers, Crash (Seann William Scott) and Eddie (Josh Peck). And to make matters worse, the melting of the ice has released some ferocious sea creatures that had literally been frozen in time. Will Ellie finally realize that she's a gigantic woolly mammoth and not a pint-sized possum? Is it really the end of the world? Can Manny and the rest of the animals in the valley survive the impending flood? And will Manny be able to leave the past behind now that he knows he's not alone? Saber-tooth squirrel Scrat and his quest for an acorn once again provide additional comic relief throughout the film.

Editorial reviews

"ICE AGE: THE MELTDOWN blithely looks on the bright side of life, amassing a screen full of vultures to sing and dance 'Food Glorious Food' and daring us not to get happy." -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (04/07/2006)

4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his sequel confidently juggles its humorous elements with well-handled action beats..."
Total Film - Neil Smith (06/01/2006)

"With its appealing combination of humor and endearing characters -- many of whom are back from the first film -- it is at least as good as the original ICE AGE, and possibly better."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (03/31/2006)

"Overall, this is the best CGI picture since Pixar's THE INCREDIBLES..."
Sight and Sound - Andrew Osmond (06/01/2006)

Rating: PG

You favorite furry animals are back and on an new adventure!When Fast Tony starts talking about the end of the world no one really believes him, and think it's a scam to sell air reeds(a snorkle-straw to breathe underwater).But when Sid decides he wants some respect, he climbs the biggest slide the Eviscerator at the very top of the ice wall.Manny & Diego stop him just in time before he jumps and finally see for themselves that they are surrounded by water at the top and the dam is about to break and flood them all!! All the creatures start their journey to the valley to try to escape the flood before it is too late.During their trip Manny starts to think he is the last mammoth.. until he runs into Ellie who falls from a tree in front of him.Ellie has two brothers, Crash & Eddie who have convinced her that she is also a "possum" like them.Manny falls for this stubborn-silly Ellie "possum", but always says the wrong things.Can they all make it to safety before the flood reaches them?? You will have to watch to find out!!

This movie is just as good as the first,all the same character voices, and many new characters to fall in love with!!Would recommend to rent or buy!Hope this helps you decide!Thanks for reading this!Please click YES at the bottom. :)

It's Better The Second Time Around,

Created: 27/10/06
This was HILLARIOUS!!! This was far better than the first movie. John Leguizamo was brilliant as usual, the perfect voice for Sid. And it was great having the voice of Queen Latifah as Ray Ramano's love interest. This movie was a comedy-lovers delight. And of course the squirrel, Scrat, was genius from day one. Every scene he's in is like watching a great silent movie. That actually requires a lot of skill on behalf of the storytellers and animators to create scenes without dialogue that are equally as entertaining and engaging as those with dialogue. The latter is one reason why the first "Ice Age" film distinguished itself. So the team at Blue Sky Studios should be congratulated. This is a sharp movie. No sophomore slump. I have the first one on DVD and I can't wait to get this incredible sequel. Everything just seems more developed and elaborated upon this time around. Computer-animated films were still in their infancy when the first film got released. But the technological progress that has been made since then is obvious and it's been put to good use throughout the movie. I really enjoyed "Ice Age 2." So if you were a fan of the first one, then don't forget to get the sequel when it hits stores this November.

Scrat Does It Again!

Created: 09/12/06
This movie wasn't as good as the first one. It lacked something in the storyline, it wasn't as strong as the first movie. Scrat (the squirrel) really made this movie though. He was a lot funnier than in the first one, it helps that they show him more.

The story starts out with Sid, Manny, and Diego. They soon find out that their ice world is melting and if they don't move to higher ground they'll soon be under water as well. On their new migration Manny finds another mammoth who thinks she is a possum. He then spends his time trying to convince her that she's a mammoth, of course they both think the other is crazy. I won't spoil the ending for those who haven't seen it, but you will definitely enjoy this movie if you liked the first one.

One Of The Few Sequels That Live Up To The First

Created: 06/04/07
There's not much to say about this movie. It was a really great movie. Not often do you see a sequel to a movie, let alone an animated movie (2nd to Toy Story of course) that will get as many laughs out of you as the first one. Honestly I think the 2nd Ice Age movie probably got a few more of my chuckles under its belt. One of the best parts if for nothing else, is the fact that they brought back ALL the original voices. That and Scrat the squirell looking thing chasing his nut around. I'm sure most parents who saw and had their kids see Ice Age will adore Ice Age: The Meltdown as well if they haven't already. And if you haven't bought it yet...you should check out around eBay and get it because it's something that's worth watching again and again every so often.

Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006, DVD)

Created: 07/01/07
I decided to buy this DVD because I really liked the
first one. Unfortunately I automatically assumed it would
be tailored to young viewers and just as good as the first one.
It was neither. I was disappointed to see that it was rated PG-13.
I thought my toddler would enjoy a movie of this type, until I saw
the rating. I think it was misrepresenting in its previews. Also, I
didn't think it had enough substance. I feel that it should have more
to it, or in it. It just left me feeling like it was lacking. Over all
it was one of those movies that you only watch one time.
