Ice Age 3 should be your family comedy of choice this summer. I went to the cinema with my girl the other day to see this one. She wanted to see it with swedish language. I didn’t. So we went to see it with english speech. And thank God that we did! A lot of the jokes would’ve been lost in the translation if we didn’t.

So, this time around Manny (the mammoth) is having a baby together wis his she-mammoth. Sid, the sloth, is having difficulties with not having any kids – so he finds three dinosaur eggs that he adopts as his own. Funny thing is he calls himself “mommy” instead of “daddy”. Anyways, of course these three eggs are hatched and then an angry dinosaur mom comes after her kids.

So after a lot of crazy-ass events the dinosaur mom gets hold of her childre (and Sid) and takes them back to Dinosaur-land. Yep, Dinosaur-land. The tropics living underneath the ice… (yeah…).

Then, the rest of the regular bunch from the earlier movies sets on a quest to rescue Sid from the vicious dinosaurs. And then you have your movie. A lot of really funny scenes and dialogues will proceed and you will really enjoy the movie. Scrat, the sabre-toothed squirrel, is presented once again in his chase for his precious acorn. This time he gets some competition from his female counterpart called Scratte.

Another new character to the Ice Age universe is Buck, a maniac weasel living with the dinosaurs. I think he was the best part of the whole movie. He had such hilarious monologues you couldn’t do anything other than laugh and smile.

Ice Age 3 is a really happy-joy-joy movie I think everyone will enjoy, irrespective of age.
