Review by Palm Springs Guides Movie Guide Nick Jones

“Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs” is the third film in the animated trilogy about prehistoric animals who form an interesting interspecies herd. The film revolves around a woolly mammoth couple, Manny and Ellie (Ray Romano and Queen Latifah) who about to have a child; an aging sabretooth tiger, Diego (Denis Leary), who isn’t ready to settle down yet; Sid the sloth (John Leguizamo) who yearns to also be a part of motherhood; and the newly introduced character, and perhaps the savior of this film, Buck, the eye-patch wearing, swashbuckling weasel (Simon Pegg). And of course Scrat the squirrel, on his never ending quest to secure the acorn.
