Hot and Cold

Rating: 5/10 (6 October 2010)

This third installment of the reliably mediocre Ice Age franchise is just as non-descript and formulaic as its predecessors.
The setting and the characters are likable enough and not without their charms and the pace is even faster than before - the whole pic is one big jump'n'run arcade game -, but the pseudo-story is thin indeed and the mostly juvenile jokes are only funny in fits and starts.
Does anyone share my opinion of movie dinosaurs being particularly boring nowadays?
Strictly by-the-numbers.
