A story of the pre-man age, similar to Connan the Barbarian but animated. The art style gives us a painted background with normal drawn characters. I found it very creative with fun monsters and great gory action. Unfortunately it lacks in story giving us lots of teasing moments and keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat.
We watch as Ice wars against Fire. The cold king wants to destroy all. Everyone else is innocent and just trying to survive the brutal assault. The movie follows a few characters who are left in the aftermath. The most tiring thing about the film is that evil always seems to win. The good guys can't even get a chance to breathe. We also don't get to see one massive army against another. I was waiting for that epic battle of all of fire vs all of ice but it never came. And we really don't get to see the full force of fire, only ice. It also would have been nice to have more scenes with the ice king and his mother.
The gore is fantastic. The fighting is great. There's lots of eye candy but no real follow through with it. Most of the movie feels more like a tease instead of a follow through. There's no calm moments in the movie, it's constantly a feeling of running for your life.
It's still a fun animated movie thats very serious. There is lots of action and intense moments. The monsters are fantastic. It's not as great as Heavy Metal, but still a good watch.
