just watched the much hyped about movie Ice Age and have to admit that I am a tad bit disappointed.

True to the hype, the graphics were awesome and realistic, especially for the scenes where they had flowing lava, falling avalanches and blizzards. The movements of the well-drawn characters were pretty darn good too. But for some reason, I found the movie lacking in plot, somewhat slow-moving, and with way too much slapstick humour for my liking. There was hardly any other type of humour in the show (i.e. witty, unexpected ones that I like) and I concluded that the show was probably targeted at kids (successfully as I can tell, judging from the excitement from the kid sitting two seats away from me, repeating every other line spoken by the characters - which looked anyway like they were looted from any typical Disney cartoon - especially the wicked Diego and silly loser Sid)... but I guess it's still worth watching, just for the graphics I suppose...
