Reviews

On the Rotten Tomatoes page, only 16 of the 106 reviews listed were positive about the film (as of March 21, 2017).

Carsten Baumgardt from Filmstarts called Ice Age - collision ahead! as a "patchwork with a touch of story", in which "with a firework of wild birds mixed together crazy ideas" are attempted to "hide the blatant narrative weaknesses." With "the sheer number of hectically bustling secondary characters" the film becomes one "Barrage of mostly randomly appearing slapstick inserts."

Michael Pilz from Die Welt is particularly impressed by the development of animation technology: “The animators show what they and their programs can now do: In the electron storms of the galactic magnetic fields, the creatures' hairstyles are overwhelmingly out of every imaginable shape and frame. The light falls wonderfully through amber pine forests, horsetail groves and rock crystals. You want to wipe the volcanic ash off your glasses and scoop the spring water with both hands. The meteorites also seem to give off their heat in the cinema. "

Gross profit

The film's worldwide revenues are currently over $ 408 million. The budget was $ 105 million, the highest budget of any Ice Age movie to date. So far, the film has seen over 2.9 million visitors in German cinemas and is 7th among the films launched in 2016 (as of August 13, 2017).
