Ice Age: The Meltdown, released in 2006, is an animated comedy-adventure film that is a sequel to the 2002 movie Ice Age. Directed by Carlos Saldanha and produced by Chris Wedge, the movie features a talented voice cast including Ray Romano as Manny the woolly mammoth, John Leguizamo as Sid the sloth, and Denis Leary as Diego the saber-toothed tiger.

Following the events of the first movie, the ice age is coming to an end and the animals in the valley are facing a new problem: a massive ice dam that is about to burst, causing a catastrophic flood that will destroy their homes. Manny, Sid, and Diego decide to work together and warn the other animals of the impending danger, urging them to evacuate and find a new home on the other side of the valley. However, the animals, who are used to living in their own territories, are reluctant to move, and it's up to Manny and his friends to lead the way to safety.

The plot of the movie is divided into two main storylines. The first follows Manny as he struggles to come to terms with the fact that he may be the last woolly mammoth alive. He soon meets Ellie, a female mammoth who thinks she is a possum. Manny and his friends join forces with Ellie and her "possum brothers," Crash and Eddie, to warn the other animals about the flood. Along the way, Manny and Ellie develop a romantic relationship, which becomes complicated when Ellie insists on staying with her "brothers" rather than join Manny and his herd.

The second storyline focuses on Sid and his attempt to join a group of female sloths. He is initially accepted by them, but soon finds out they are only using him in their attempt to win a husband. Meanwhile, Diego feels outnumbered as the only predator in the herd and struggles with his own identity crisis, leading him to question his loyalty to his friends.

Throughout the movie, there are several humorous and heartwarming moments as the unlikely group of animals encounters obstacles and works together to overcome them. The animation is visually stunning, with intricate details in the characters and landscapes. The voice acting is superb, with each actor bringing their character to life with wit and charm.

Overall, Ice Age: The Meltdown is a fun and entertaining movie that appeals to both adults and children. It combines adventure, comedy, and emotional depth in a well-crafted story that explores themes of friendship, family, and the importance of protecting those we care about. It's a worthy sequel to the original film and a great addition to the Ice Age franchise.

Ice Age: The Meltdown is a 2006 animated movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 31 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.8 and a MetaScore of 59.
