I love Ice Age meltdown and I’m tired of pretending like I don’t. In my opinion, my humble, nostalgia clouded, rose tinted opinion, this is the best installment in the Ice Age franchise, possibly second best, I’d accept that, the one with the Dinosaurs is the only one that can compete (must be said- despite all its redeeming qualities, an incredibly basic film).
