The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild
This sixth edition of the Ice Age franchise is a spin-off/standalone sequel to “Ice Age: Collision Course”. This one features possum brothers, Crash & Eddie, declaring their independence from the pack & striking out on their own. On their misadventures, the brothers stumble on to eye-patched Buck Wild, zorilla Zee, & the Lost World where they battle it out with Orson the big brain protoceratops & his raptor henchmen. It’s prehistoric hijinks as the idiot brothers provide the comic relief with Buck as the brains & Zee is the brawn against the evil dinosaurs. This family friendly film is aimed toward the little kiddies. The more familiar main Ice Age characters, Manny, Ellie, Sid, & Diego only have brief roles & aren’t even voiced by their original actors.
Alien gives it 2 “animal warfare” stars out of 4.
