    The Croods


    "I can't believe your family has never seen rain!"
    "We don't get out much."

    The Croods live in a constant state of fear.  They spend most days in the security of their cave and only venture out to hunt as a family.  It is this fear that has kept them alive for years, but daughter Eep (Stone) longs for something more.  One night she leaves the cave to investigate a strange light.  While out, she meets a strange man, Guy (Reynolds), who lives out in the open and can create fire.  He tells her about "the end" and then leaves with his companion Belt (Sanders).

    All of Guy's predictions come true and the cave is destroyed.  The Croods have no choice but to venture into the wild world.  With Grug's (Cage) protective instincts and Guy's worldly knowledge, can the family make it to "tomorrow"?


    An interesting premise, that gave the animators free reign to let their imaginations run free.  They used that freedom to create many color creatures with bright color schemes.

    The story follows a close knit family that gets along well.  Even when they disagree, they still function as a cohesive family unit, which was refreshing.  Each member of the family fills a role within the family, although as characters they are a little flat.

    A cute family film.
