Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Movie Insights

Current Music: Pinball Wizard, The Who

Watched this in 3d and it was awesome! I really wasn't prepared for a night of good laughs, good company and an amazing 3d experience, I almost didn't push through with going to this blogger event, I'm glad I did.

The movie continues the story of Manny, Diego, Sid, Ellie and the possums Crash and Eddie. It opens with Manny and Ellie expecting a baby and with Sid and Diego feeling a bit left out from the new family. Sense of family and togetherness seems to be the theme throughout the whole movie. As Sid was desperately trying to prove that he could also raise a family of his own, he accidentally stumbled on a previously unknown world just below the ice-covered world that they were living in.

This was the world inhabited by the dinosaurs. Finding unknown eggs on the way, Sid decided to keep them. Unfortunately though these turned out to be Mama Rex's babies, who eventually ventured up into the their world in search of her eggs. This marked the beginning of laughs and adventure as they met new characters and creatures. A new character that I've grown to love is Buck. Although, he's a little weird at times, but his survival instincts and sense of bravado is unfailing in aiding our characters in their time of need. We are also introduced in the mini-love story of Scrat and Scratte.

All in all, this movie was good good fun. If you're in the mood for bit of wild Jurassic Parkish kind of ride, then go and see this movie, recommended in 3d of course.
