Reviewed by Kenneth Brown, October 2. Is it possible to review a CG animated film, even one with as much overseas clout and box office success as Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs, without mentioning Pixar Studios I wish it was. Unfortunately, aside from some notable standouts Kung Fu Panda and a few other inventive adventures like it recent animated films havent given animation junkies a solid reason to venture beyond the hallowed halls of Pixar. Watch Star Wars: The Lost 1980`S Anime Online. Dawn of the Dinosaurs certainly tries. Blue Sky Studios has not only intensified its profitable franchises action sequences, its amped up its set pieces, added more characters into the mix, and given each one more to do than they have before. However, most everything falls flat. The story is inspired but doesnt go much of anywhere, the new characters are entertaining but tend to steal the show from the series mainstays, a full half hour passes before our heroes finally make their way into the underground world at the center of the tale, and the comedy, though amusing at times, smacks of the lazy pop culture shenanigans that have apparently become the go to source of laughs at every animation studio struggling to topple Pixar. Ah well, at least kids and faithful franchise fans will get a kick out of it. Manny the mammoth voiced by Ray Romano, Sid the Sloth John Leguizamo, and Diego the Smilodon Denis Leary along with Mannys pregnant mate Ellie Queen Latifah, series scavenger Scrat Chris Wedge, and opposums Crash and Eddie Seann William Scott and Josh Peck are used to threats their own size, but when they stumble into a lost world ruled by lumbering dinosaurs, they find themselves at the very bottom of the food chain. And that isnt the only problem they have to face. Sid is taken away by a tyrannosaurus rex after her newly hatched babies mistake him for their mother, Diego is finding it increasingly difficult to hunt and pursue his prey, Manny and Ellie are expecting their first baby, and Scrat begins to develop feelings for a rival rodent named Scratte Karen Disher. With the help of a wily albeit mentally unbalanced mammalian warrior named Buck Simon Pegg, the crew has to track Sid, survive dangers theyve never encountered, avoid a deadly creature ominously dubbed Rudy, and return to the surface in one piece. After waltzing about for twenty long minutes, Dawn of the Dinosaurs begins to rattle and hum, promising a thrilling trek for the whole family. Sadly, it never comes. Manny and his friends journey into the depths of the Earth is full of fun, fantastic dino designs, but rarely delivers enough thematic weight or narrative direction to support the animators amazing work. Similarly, a slew of flashy tricks and camera angles adds dynamism to the series formerly stocky visuals, but these initially exciting innovations arent bolstered by the sort of creative action choreography other animated films have been producing en masse. There are several memorable scenes to be sure the first appearance of the tyrannosaurus, a pteranodon dogfight, and the many Scrat and Scratte tussles are my personal favorites but they struck me as little more than arresting animated shorts tied together by the loosest of plots. While the slap stick hilarity of it all left my five year old son with plenty of grins and giggles, his mother and I were less than enthused. Humor either involves kid friendly gross out gags or dated, leftfield pop culture references a Flintstones one liner is particularly groan inducing, and its character development is thin and contrived at best. Granted, Dawn of the Dinosaurs is better than Ice Age The Meltdown, but it still fails to capture the simple joy and smart storytelling of the first film in the franchise. Ironically, Simon Pegg begins saving the film from utter disaster the moment his character saves the gang from a similar fate. His Buck is a bit too reminiscent of Johnny Depps Captain Jack, but he sinks his all into every line and makes his scenes the highlight of the film. The animators match his commitment beat for beat, making Bucks face and mannerisms as entertaining as his batty banter, and seem to get more satisfaction from animating the sword slinging furball than any of the series main characters with the exception of Scrat whose dogged pursuit of an acorn is as endearing as ever. In fact, I was surprised by the amount of screentime Buck swipes from his woolly compatriots, proof in my mind that directors Carlos Saldanha and Mike Thurmeier are slowly growing bored of the trio who started it all. Diego is given next to nothing to do this time around, Manny is reduced to cynical asides, and Sid is upstaged by four T rexes that dont say a single word. With protagonists that have become such one note characters, its easy to see why a clever creation like Buck is such a welcome relief. As it stands, Dawn of the Dinosaurs isnt going to bring many newcomers to the franchise fold, but it will appeal to children and families whove diligently followed the series from the beginning. Give it a try and see if you enjoy its wares more than I did. As many high definition enthusiasts probably already suspect, Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs boasts an absolutely stunning 1. AVC encoded transfer that is, in a word, perfect. Colors erupt off the screen prepare to be blown away when you reach the scenes involving the underground caverns lava lakes and contrast is impeccable throughout. Moreover, blacks are deep and absorbing, primaries pop, and banding is nowhere to be seen. Detail is astounding as well. Every hair on Mannys back, every blade of grass at the base of a giant carnivorous plant, every shard of ice and rock that impedes the gangs journey is crisp and refined. Best of all, I didnt catch sight of any artifacting, aliasing, noise or, for that matter, any other digital anomaly that might undermine the hard work of the Blue Sky Studios animators.
