A daily comment from Midget Emma: Ice Age 2 The Meltdown (2006)

Rating: 6/10 (6 July 2008)

A satisfying sequel. Does measure up to the first one. Still has the laughs and i can't wait until Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs.
The makers do know how to follow there fans. The sequel is more mature then the first one. Doesn't start a new fan base just keeps the same one. Those who liked the first one and who are now older might expect this to be way too kid-like for them but as you get older Ice Age got older.
The animation has improved tremendously over the first one. More detailed and smoother. Manny,Diego and Sid are back but are not alone. We have three new characters thrown into the film. Don't worry these characters are not just there to make it fresh. They do have an impact on the story and they are(thankfully)funny.
I recommend if you liked the first one.
6/10
