Cosmic Scrat-tastrophe

Rather than the humorous aspect, which is of course present, but not to the same extent as in the older Scrat shorts, I have to appreciate the great imaginativeness regarding (not only) the formation of the solar system. The poster touts a parody of The Martian, but the short is a mix of space adventure films, basically another and exceedingly crazy chain of events started by a prehistoric squirrel. (03.09.2016)

Five sensationally frantic minutes about Scrat, the acorn, the formation of the solar system and so on. I loved the use of the frozen flying saucer from the first Ice Age. (10.11.2015)

I thought this would be a disaster, but sending squirrels into space isn't actually bad at all. It's sometimes quite funny, it's again unstoppable, with things constantly happening, and some gags are really clever. But these short films with the squirrel just can't grab me anymore, as if there's already been too much of it. (29.03.2016)
