The Croods: A New Age
Searching for a safer habitat, the prehistoric Crood family discovers an idyllic, walled-in paradise that meets all of its needs. Unfortunately, they must also learn to live with the Bettermans -- a family that's a couple of steps above the Croods on the evolutionary ladder. As tensions between the new neighbors start to rise, a new threat soon propels both clans on an epic adventure that forces them to embrace their differences, draw strength from one another, and survive together.

One of the better family movies
As I am writing these lines, I've just looked up that the Croods are a Dreamworks franchise. If you consider the pool of family movies aimed at smaller kids, quite often you'd find lazy cash grab projects that might distract a toddler for a little while but offer next to nothing for the guardian. Croods left me with a similar impression up until I actually watched the movie.
Both movies deal with themes of family and companionship, though both from a slightly different angles. Hence watching the sequel expands the first movie rather than copies it. On top of that there are quite a lot of funny gags that satirize modern society. Additionally there are plenty of colorful animal hybrids that are quite fun. The Croods are by far not the best Dreamworks movie, but still better than other family entertainment so If you ever find it available or crave a change from seeing Shrek for the hundredth time, give Croods a go. Since I feel the same way about both movies, I'll copy this review to the other one as well. - raben-81146 - 12 August 2023
More Croods
Happy ten years to The Croods or 2000 BC. The crazy Croods are out on a new adventure, and this time they are teaming up with a just as crazy family that is living up in the trees, as the fun rivals they begins like a back and forth camera conversation and some cool superhero title screens too. The animation is better than ever from the wolf spiders to the landscapes and the looney animation. This movie is not a serious and award winning Netflix drama, but a silly primitive times movie in style of The Star from 2017. This movie is mostly for kids and an Universal Studios but also some fun for men that is out for some cartoon action too.
