Scrat (Wedge) is his non-stop pursuit of acorns ends up causing the breakup of Pangea and hence making the continents drift into their current positions. Manny (Romano) and Ellie's (Latifah) daughter, Peaches (Palmer) is a teenage Mammoth who is not happy with her father being over-protective about her and is yearning for some freedom and responsibility. When the ground breaks below their feet, Manny along with his friends Diego (Leary) and Sid (Leguizamo) get separated from the heard and are floating away on a piece of ice. They are also unknowingly accompanied by Sid's annoying grandmother, Granny (Sykes). The four need to get back to the mainland and rescue their family and friends from destruction but not before Captain Gutt (Dinklage) a pirate that wishes to ruin everything for them. The Ice Age movie have always been about showcasing how life on Earth progressed millions of years ago and the latest one talks about how current day continents took shape. The movie has light humour, not the kinds that would make you roll over with laughter, but decent enough for a child to enjoy. The biggest downside of the movie is the absolute lack of creativity and outright humour. Scrat has stopped being funny, characters are becoming more and more redundant and have a lesser role to play in the overall movie. From a pure critical standpoint, it is a complete washout but from a pure entertainment role, the movie does it's job well.
