Movie review: "Ice Age: Continental Drift"

"Ice Age" is one of my favorite movie franchises..I think it's fun, fresh and very entertaining.. especially for kids...so, as a birthday gift, we took the kids to see it...
Let's say that, while this installment is still fun and entertaining, the story line is lacking a little bit... I thought the movie was slow at times and the new characters weren't as engaging as I expected...
The plot revolves around a "continental drift", which causes Manny's family to split up.. everyone faces challenges and tribulations along the way and they eventually reunite...
In the meantime, they all learn valuable life lessons about love, family and friendship...
The movie kept the kids' attention and it also had some great "adult" type of jokes, which were still age appropriate...
All in all.. I think the movie is good (not perfect!)..but definitely worth a trip to the theatre..
I give it 4 out of 5 stars!
