"I'm feeling nauseous."
Entry Number 5 hardly lives up to the thrill ride suggested by the sub-title, as this franchise has now settled into a very comfortable and unchallenging groove. Once again, the very simple plot provides the basis for cross-generational drama/comedy/life-lessons as seen in the previous films, and disappointingly most of the Scrat sections appeared in preview material and the new characters are not especially strong. The film raised a couple of chuckles from its target audience (the very young) in the cinema, but apart from the beautiful pin-sharp and vivid animation and a couple of surprisingly near-the-knuckle gags, there really is little here to engage anyone else.
