A
team of "sub-zero heroes" band together to save a human infant in this
digitally animated feature from Oscar-winning director Chris Wedge, whose
unique lighting software (called "Ray Tracing") sets his visual style apart
from earlier CGI efforts. Twenty thousand years ago, the Earth is overrun by
freezing temperatures in an Ice Age that is sending all manner of critters
scattering in the path of encroaching glaciers. When a lost human infant is
discovered, an unlikely quartet of misfits forms to return it to its mother:
Manny, a depressed woolly mammoth (Ray Romano); Sid, a fast-talking sloth
(John Leguizamo); an acorn-crazed squirrel named Scrat (Wedge); and the
devilish saber-toothed tiger named Diego (Denis Leary). Before they can
complete their mission, the reluctant compatriots will brave pits of boiling
lava, dangerous caverns of ice, and even a traitorous plot within their
midst. Ice Age (2002) also features the voices of Jack Black, Jane Krakowski,
and Goran Visnjic.| Ray Romano | Manny [Voice] |
