Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

El precio vale laPena!

The only way I can tell you about this film, is that I really love it! The movie has solid animation, great characters, and plenty of action & comedy! In my opinion, it is the best out of the Ice Age Trilogy.I especially love the one eyed weasel Buck (Simon Pegg) and the Tyrannosaur family, who adopt Sid as one of their own. I have written out the plot below, but be warned, it contains spoilers!Ellie (Queen Latifah) and Manny (Ray Romano) are expecting their first child, and Manny is obsessed with making life perfect and safe for the family, since his first experiences as a husband and father went bad when his family was killed by hunters. At the same time, Diego (Denis Leary) finds himself unable to catch a cocky gazelle (Bill Hader) he has been stalking and decides to leave the herd, believing that he is losing his predatory nature as a tiger. Sid (John Leguizamo) grows jealous of Manny and Ellie and "adopts" three apparently abandoned eggs that he finds in an icy underground cavern and call them Eggbert, Shelly, and Yoko. Manny tells him to put them back, but Sid instead looks after the eggs, which hatch into baby Tyrannosaurus the next morning.Although Sid tries his best to raise the three dinosaurs, their rambunctious behavior scares away all the other animals' young and ruins a playground Manny built for Ellie's baby. A female Tyrannosaurus, Momma, whose eggs Sid stole, soon returns and carries both Sid and her young underground, with Diego in pursuit.Manny, Ellie, Crash, and Eddie (Seann William Scott, Josh Peck) follow as well and discover that the icy cavern leads to a vast jungle populated by dinosaurs thought to be extinct. Here, an Ankylosaurus threatens the herd despite Diego's efforts to fend it off; they are saved from a further crowd of angry reptiles by an insane, one-eyed weasel named Buckminster, or Buck (Simon Pegg).Buck has been living in this jungle for some time and is chasing Rudy (a huge albino Baryonyx), intending to avenge the eye he lost to it. He agrees to lead the herd through the jungle's perils to Lava Falls, where Momma has taken Sid and her babies.In the meantime, Sid and Momma try to outdo each other in feeding the offspring; he loses this contest, but is soon welcomed into the family regardless. The next day, however, Sid is separated from the family and attacked by Rudy. Sid is knocked onto a loose rock slab that is floating on a river of lava and about to plummet over the falls.As the herd moves toward Lava Falls, Ellie goes into labor and a Guanlong pack strikes, causing a rock slide that separates her from Manny and Diego. Manny doubles back to protect her and Diego fends off further attacks, while Buck takes Crash and Eddie ahead to rescue Sid. Just as he goes over the falls, the trio swoops in on a commandeered Pteranodon only to been chased by a flock of Quetzalcoatlus on the way and saves his life.Manny reaches Ellie, and there is suddenly a reaction, the cry of a newborn baby, then he sees that it is a girl. He wants to name her Ellie, or Little Ellie, but Ellie instead names her Peaches after the fruit (and the codeword they had chosen for Ellie to use if she went into labor during the trip). Sid is saddened at the fact that he never had a chance to say goodbye to "his" children as he returns to the herd and learns of Peaches' birth.Before they can exit the jungle, Rudy attacks at full force; Buck lures Rudy away from the group and is nearly eaten himself, before Diego saves him at the last second. They then ensnare him briefly, but he escapes and resumes his onslaught. The herd is saved by the timely arrival of Momma, who charges at Rudy and knocks him off a cliff before roaring her victory. As she and her children wish Sid well, Buck - now without a purpose in life since Rudy is gone - decides to join the herd and live on the surface.However, a distant roar tells him that Rudy is still alive; he changes his mind and sends the herd home, blocking off the path to the underground jungle at the same time so that no one else can go down there. Manny and Ellie welcome Peaches into their frozen world and admit that Sid did a good job looking after Momma's children (though Manny tells Diego that he will never let Sid babysit Peaches). Diego decides to remain with the herd, while Buck stays where he wants to be: underground, battling it out with Rudy.The storyline is great, the characters are awesome, and the pace of the film is very fast. Basically, it is a film that you shouldn't miss out on. So far, its the best animated film of 2009 (that I've seen).My advice, buy this DVD. It's a great movie that is sure to please both young and old alike. So, what are you waiting for? It's time to go prehistoric with Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs!

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs is a fantastic addition to the Ice Age series, full of adventure, humor, and heartwarming moments. The animation is vibrant and engaging, bringing the prehistoric world to life with stunning detail, especially in the lush underground dinosaur world. The characters are as lovable as ever, and the story keeps both kids and adults entertained with its mix of action and comedy. This movie is a great choice for family movie nights and a must-watch for any Ice Age fan!

My granddaughter and me love the movie

We were very pleased to watch this movie.

The sub zero heroes are back for one really big adventure in the rousing animated feature "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs". While Manny (Ray Romano) and Ellie (Queen Latifah) are anxiously waiting the birth of their baby, lonely Sid (John Leguizamo) discovers three large eggs that hatch into a trio of rambunctious baby dinosaurs. When their angry mother arrives and carries them to a mysterious underground world inhabited by towering dinosaurs, Manny, Ellie, Crash (Seann William Scott), Eddie (Josh Peck) and Diego (Denis Leary) find themselves at the bottom of the food chain and enlist the help of a deranged but courageous one-eyed weasel named Buck (Simon Pegg). Meanwhile, Scrat falls in love a with crafty sabre-toothed squirrel named Scratte. "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" is certainly one of the most enjoyable summer movies of 2009. Though its story lacks some depth, the 94-minute animated film still offers plenty of humor and excitement for both adult and young audiences. The computer animation looks remarkably stunning.If you're looking for an amusing animated movie that looks terrific on Blu-Ray and includes numerous special features, then "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" is a highly recommended purchase. The animated blockbuster looks outstanding but a 3-D option would have been a great bonus. The 7.1 DTS-HD audio is quite good but not as great as the video transfer. The Blu-Ray has a really good number of extras: audio commentary track by the filmmakers, several behind-the-scenes featurettes (Unearthing the Lost World, Buck: From Easel to Weasel & Falling for Scratte), a 2-minute music video, two animated shorts staring Scratt (Gone Nutty & No Time for Nuts) and two deleted scenes in their original storyboard format. Overall, "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" scores a "B+".

good movie
