Without the necessary technical capabilities, Blue Sky was unable to reach the true heights of their ambitions, creating a dull world of poorly rendered characters that looks like it was made on a cheap children’s editing tool. Telling the story of a woolly mammoth, a sabre-toothed tiger and a sloth who encounter a young human child whilst navigating the sub-zero world, Ice Age from directors Chris Wedge and Carlos Saldanha, takes the viewer on an impressive frenetic adventure.įeaturing the voice work of Denis Leary, John Leguizamo, Ray Romano and Jack Black, Blue Sky threw all that they could into making their debut animation a classic, and whilst it certainly achieved success commercially, in contemporary cinema it stands as a mere reminder of how far technology has come since the 2000s. With great ambitions, Ice Age was released in 2002 with a spectacle way beyond its own technical limitations, recreating a grand world of ice sheets, towering mountains and intricate prehistoric beasts.
