The Croods

The Croods is a DreamWorks’ computer-animated adventure/fantasy movie set in the imaginary prehistoric era called ‘The Croodacious Era.’ The story revolves around the concept of change. When a caveman’s family finds themselves in danger due to the end of the world, he must overcome his fear of change if he wishes to save his loved ones. The trailer for Croods opens with Grug, voiced by Nicolas Cage, telling a story of how curiosity killed the bear but fails to convince his daughter who wishes to explore. After the earthquake shatters their home, we get to see more of the outside world.

The animations and designs of the wildlife are breathtaking with vibrant colors and captivating creatures. Most of the creatures are a weird, mutated combination of the animals we know, like the flying bird piranhas, the carnivorous flowers, and many other mixtures. Most of the character’s voice-overs are by prominent actors like Emma Stone as Eep, Ryan Reynolds as Guy, Catherine Keener as Ugga, Clark Duke as Thunk and Cloris Leachman as Gran.

The screenplay is hilarious and sentimental and totally relatable. The movie is for all ages, and the film based on the prehistoric times will fascinate the children and keep them engaged.
