Still one of my favorite animated films!

Rating: 8/10 (25 August 2019)

Oh wow, this was simply awesome! From the animation to the great premise, this was an exciting and funny action adventure ride. This beautiful film has it all: humor that is really funny, thrilling action and adventure, wonderful characters and voice overs. The humor is brilliantly original and never really slapstick.
The film also features much darker elements like double crossing, scheming, and evil plans of revenge. There are also very sincere and emotional moments, like a mother willing to sacrifice everything to save her child, a mammoth longing for a family, and a villain becoming a hero. The cute factor is evident throughout the film, and the characters steal your heart every step of the way. The squirrel, Scrat, is just lovable and adorable!! I love the satirical elements, as well, as they illustrate why the Dodo became extinct...! This was awesome!
