The prehistoric Croods family live in a particularly dangerous moment in time. Patriarch Grug, his mate Ugga, teenage daughter Eep, son Thunk, and feisty Gran gather food by day and huddle together in a cave at night. When a more evolved caveman named Guy arrives on the scene, Grug is distrustful, but it soon becomes apparent that Guy is correct about the impending destruction of their world.

adonis98-743-186503 After their cave is destroyed, a caveman family must trek through an unfamiliar fantastical world with the help of an inventive boy. The Croods showcases that Nicolas Cage is a pretty damn good actor and he proves it with this film since he brings alot of comedy but also alot of dramatic moments, Emma Stone was also very good and loved the Grandma that they had alongside them which reminded me the grandma from Ice Age 4: Collision Course. The animation is truly excellent and lots of adventure, humor and as i said drama can be found here and i'm really excited for the sequel that their going to make in 2020. (A+)
hurley-regina Think if Dreamworks try to take their twist on Ice Age but focuses on a modern cave family. What do you get? You get a smi good and fun that will have your little ones laughing till they die. While at most points it's trys to be too modern and a bit cliche manly at the first half and takes away form the story and focuses on just pop cultural references and modern jokes. Which makes the film fall flat on. But of coruse this film isn't all that bad. Nicolas Cage voice work was one thing that worked in this. But even with that, it's because he's a over the top actor so it's not that hard to laugh at. As for the other voice work like Emma Stone and Ryan Reynolds, they didn't do half bad. Plus I really enjoy the world they go through. It's wonderful to look at.
steffycyril Even though the characters are from movies,they are wonderful to watch.Many of this genre that i have watched have not been read before and don't want to. The plot is a small story where a family is moving together to a safer place to survive.If i want to explain each characters: Fathers always want their children to be at their side.The attempt that he makes on the counts is funny. As soon as a lover comes,it seems amazing to do anything than being said or done by any other person.The changes is bought in a subtle way and shown in a cute manner. She thrives to do things without hesitation as that of 'BRAVE'.The plot is interesting till the end.
Python Hyena The Croods (2013): Dir: Kirk DeMicco, Chris Sanders / Voices: Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Catherine Keener, Cloris Leachman: Prehistoric animation about one of the original families. The head of the cave is Grug and he is strong and constantly concerned about the safety of his family. His daughter Eep is adventurous and disregards her father's paranoia. Others include the wife, son, baby, and granny. Eventually Guy enters the picture when Eep sneaks out of the cave and marvels at his creation of fire. Guy warns them about the end of the earth and when an earthquake destroys their cave they are off to find new refuge. Not much of a plot and the structure is one simplistic encounter after another. The saving grace is a climax that presents Grug in a position where he must think on the spot and delivers on a brilliant plot solution. Directors Kirk DeMicco and Chris Sanders are backed with a lot of corny story elements but ultimately it is the animated presentation that scores the highest marks. Many of the characters are flat but Nicolas Cage is amusing voicing Grug who competes with Guy for his family's affection and trust. Emma Stone voices the ambitious and curios Eep who has her father's strength. Ryan Reynolds voices Guy whose resourceful keen senses solve much yet create tension with Grug. Other roles are not as well developed including a granny who has more energy than she should have at her prehistoric age. The animation is the highlight and the theme is family and the willingness to cut ties and trust those we care for to make beneficial choices. Score: 6 ½ / 10
