pressAlthough state-of-the-art in its rendering of textures, movement and stereography, The Croods adopts a relatively primitive approach to storytelling.

pressLagging in the comedy stakes, this sweet Stone Age clan nonetheless will captivate the youngsters.
Dun dun duuuun!
I loved every single character presented. The film was colourful, adorable, and super funny. The hybrid animals were interesting to see but lacked originality. My brother predicting a sequel to this film and that got me a bit worried - this film was wonderful enough but if they opened it to sequels I feel like it'll meet with Ice Age 10. I enjoyed the film...
The Croods
Visually resplendent but the quirky humour hits below-par most of the time. Crug, Eep, Ugga, Thunk, Gran and Sandy make up the members of the boisterous, clumsy but, I guess, vernacularly bright, Croods family. The Croods are a pre-historic, hunting and gathering family, who fear 'new things' and curiosity, and live by the motto, "never not be afraid"....
Wow
This was definitely the best animated movie I've seen in a long time. The combination of animals was genius, the idea of overcoming fear of the unknown was brilliant and the humour was through and through magnificent. "Belt" was hilarious and the protectiveness Grug showed towards Eep was heart warming. Watch it, you won't regret it!!
