Variety
It may be a slight entertainment in the grand scheme of things, but it’s been made with a busy, nattering joy that is positively infectious - 50
Screen Daily
Collision Course is a colourful 3D romp that’s heavy on slapstick and cosy family comedy but light on real laughs and affecting drama. - 50
New York Daily News
Like the very asteroid that is hurtling toward Earth in the movie, Ice Age: Collision Course is chunky, clunky and bulky. Unlike the asteroid, the film seems to move at a glacial pace. - 40
The Hollywood Reporter
It’s as if co-directors Michael Thurmeier and Galen Tan Chu, both veterans of the Ice Age franchise, sensed that there was essentially nowhere left to go with the concept and opted to instead overstuff the production with too many characters breathlessly doing tired, pop culture-heavy “bits” like it was open mic night at the Paleolithic Punch Line. - 40
The Guardian
This could provide some small-screen entertainment for bored kids on a rainy day. But really: enough. - 40
Empire
Even by the standards of animation, the logic fails here are impressive. But the bigger problem is the lack of charm, focus and original storytelling as the animals suddenly have to save the world instead of just surviving it. - 38
Slant Magazine
If Ice Age: Collision Course gleefully fails at being a history lesson, at least it offers an energetic recess from reality. - 35
TheWrap
There’s plenty of fart jokes, forward motion and bright colors to engage easily-entertained children, but their parents will be subjected to yet another movie that has all the zing of watching evolution in real time.
