ice age 3

ever since i saw the trailer for this, a clever featurette of the scraggly mascot of the series fighting with a new nemesis/love interest for that elusive acorn, my interest was piqued.

the majority of the laughs found here belong mostly to the lovable nut-loving rodent and his antics in outwitting a new rival, a glamorous femme fatale flying squirrel. however, the main story involving the primary cast isn't too shabby either. there's a surprising amount of depth to the multiple characters and they are expertly woven into a story that moves along crisply with plenty of smart one-liners, action and humor.

for sure, this isn't the most uplifting or intelligent or ground breaking animation out there, but it made me laugh out loud more than once; so i'm liking it.
