MOVIE REVIEW
Ice Age: Collision Course is a film directed by Mike Thurmeier and is written by Michael J Wilson. It stars Ray Romano, Dennis Leary, John Leguizamo, Queen Latifah, and Keke Palmer, along with Wanda Sykes and Chris Wedge.

Scrat’s epic pursuit of the elusive acorn catapults him into the universe where he accidentally sets off a series of cosmic events that transform and threaten the Ice Age World. To save themselves, Sid, Manny, Diego, and the rest of the herd must leave their home and embark on a quest full of comedy and adventure, traveling to exotic new lands and encountering a host of colorful new characters.

With the fifth film now released, the Ice Age film series has yet again, avoided extinction and, yet again, devolves even further into the mindless tedium presented in the previous installment. Though not particularly offensive and fairly-well-intentioned, Ice Age: Collision Course has tapped its once fascinating premise bone dry, thus transforming a once highly enjoyable family diversion into a joyless exercise.

Without material or enough motivation to continue, the writers are stranded. Resulting in the majority of the runtime being devoted to dated pop-cultural references and character introductions, without the much-needed development.

Unfunny and at times flat out irritating, the humor presented in Collision Course is some of the worst in the franchise. Not even the lovable squirrel, rat hybrid, Scrat, who has now become a central character can salvage a film that is so eager to drown.

With that said, however, the economic pace and the established vocal cast, in particular, the reliably great Ray Romano and Dennis Leary, act as a major positive for the film as does the wondrous visuals and color palate. Though not a selling point, these consistently fantastic traits do somewhat redeem the film and provide some entertainment.

In the end, Ice Age: Collision Course is watchable if solely for the visuals and established cast. This in no way acts as an endorsement for the film as it lacks enough wit and the freshness to stand out, making for a largely derivative and forgettable affair.
