It's a decent short Christmas special, nothing fantastic but enjoyable and kids love ice age perfect end of the night quick watch. Only thing I wish it had was more scrat no character is better in animation that scrat especially in 3d!!! SCRAT is the KING of 3d!!!!!!!

This is quite decent Christmas Special in the manner of films that precede it and at about the same level. Not so original, but satisfying fun. If you wonder how Santa Claus got the flying reindeer and you have twenty minutes to spare, take a look. 6/10

It's Christmas season for the Ice Age gang. Sid accidentally destroys Manny's heirloom Christmas rock. Manny lies to Sid that he's now on Santa's Naughty List. Sid seeks to go to the North Pole to convince Santa to take his name off the Naughty List. He's joined by Peaches, Crash, and Eddie. They fall off a cliff and rescued by flying reindeer Prancer. Manny, Diego, and Ellie set off to find them. It's an Ice Age thirty minute Christmas TV special. It is what one expects out of that. It's fine for little kids. Santa and his minions are not necessarily the happy, jolly group. Ice Age is not the greatest animation franchise but it does work for its level.

There was both Madagascar and Shrek Christmas episodes, and now Ice Age. Next year Ice Age is ten years old, as we met Manny, Diego, Scrat and on. It's just another feel good Christmas story, but better than nothing. After three Ice Age movies and some shorts, are Manny the mammoth and his friends back. This time Manny and his friends meets Santa, as Scrat chases his acorn as usual while picking up a spider along the way. Diego he gets his first song line along the way, and the new character are a smooth reindeer. Christmas will be saved again, but Scrat keeps on looking for his beloved acorn this coming summer. Buck from the third movie is not back in this episode, so maybe in next movie. It's only around 20 minutes, but worth it. This short is Annie Award nominated, and worth it.

This is a half-hour Christmas special featuring the Ice Age gang, which came out between films 3 and 4. Well.. it's really more of a 20-minute movie actually if you don't count the credits. Manny makes a statement about some of the gang being on Santa's naughty list as they did not behave too well recently, so Sid, Crash, Eddie and Peaches are worried and go on a journey to find Santa, check the list and maybe convince him that they don't belong on the list, so Christmas will happen for them too. On the road to Santa, of course lots of mishaps and entertaining fails occur, some of them involving a clumsy reindeer they meet. It's all Christmasey this time, almost a bit too much. They make their own Christmas tree, keep singing carols and finally not only meet Santa, but destroy Christmas and rescue it and all this in only 20 minutes. It certainly does not come as a surprise as the snowiest and iciest of animation franchises currently also has a Christmas special now. It's all decent entertainment and I liked the fact how Manny basically is taught during this short film that there actually is a Santa and that there also is a naughty list. Of course, in the end everybody is happy and nobody is on the naughty list anymore. By the way, Scrat also gets some screen time right at the beginning mostly, but not so much this time. Still, you can check out his short films for that. Obviously, it's fairly difficult to create any Christmas relevance with a character that does not speak and is only always on the hunt. The rest is very much worth watching though and recommended to the fans of the Ice Age franchise.
