You can feel the Ice Age saga wanting to move on, which would have been served just perfectly fine by focusing on Simon Pegg’s adventurous weasel protagonist. It’s standard heroic kids fare that doesn’t rise too far above that specific marker. Looking to take over the lost paradise that Buck calls home, the eponymous hero is going to have to get crafty with his reunited friends, while also welcoming back Zee (Justina Machado), a figure from his past. This time out, it’s possum brothers Crash (Vincent Tong) and Eddie (Aaron Harris) who kick off the adventure, as the rambunctious twosome strike out into the wilderness, trying to make a life for themselves separate from our usual pack of characters.īecause of this new adventure, we’re reintroduced to the titular Buck Wild (Simon Pegg), an unhinged English weasel, and the three are embroiled in a caper that involves a megalomaniacal triceratops named Orson (Utkarsh Ambudkar). It’s the formula that’s made the franchise a hit with children and adults alike, and The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild absolutely follows that road map. Even with the ups and downs that the Ice Age films have taken, the series has always been about enduring love and friendship and the importance of those bonds in the face of enormous peril.
