The critics are running hot and cold over Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times judges it to be "the best of the three films" in the franchise. Likewise Lou Lumenick in the New York Post remarks that "the third installment ... shows no sign of fatigue." And Elizabeth Weitzman in the New York Daily News says that it's "cute enough to engage kids and just smart enough to keep the chaperones entertained." But Carrie Rickey in the Philadelphia Inquirer comments, "One might call this feeble attempt to wring every last nickel from a moderately enjoyable franchise The Crass Menagerie." And Michael Phillips in the Chicago Tribune concludes: "Not bad, not good, Ice Age 3 may be Ok enough to do what it was engineered to do, i.e., baby-sit your kid for a while and rake in the dough." »
