The unusual herd expands

Rating: 8/10 (26 June 2018)

The next part of the cute and comical series finds addition of more members in the herd family. Manny after a brief period of grief thinking he is the last Mammoth finds love in Ellie who thinks of herself as a Possum like her little brothers. A cute story wherein Ellie lives, acts and sleeps like a Possum just like her brothers. It is later that she realizes that she is actually a Mammoth. Sid is as always the glue of the herd but is not respected by others. He finds respect is a group of little Sloths who consider him as the fire Lord. He finally find respect but is sacrificed...huh...not killed....killing Sid is not that easy.
The encounters of Manny and the two Possum brothers (as protector of their sister) was interesting and amusing. The meltdown, an effect of the global warming was the deeper thought of the movie in relation to the current situation.
Scrat is as always after the fruit. He plays an important part in the end when he saves the life of the herd by dividing the flooding water through cracking of the snow.
A cute story.......good for a quality time
