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.

"The future ain't what it used to be."

With cinemas starving for content - especially family content these school holidays - 'The Croods: A New Age' is your best bet.

Somewhat nomadic after the conclusion of their 2013 adventure, the caveman "Croods" are still searching for a place to call home. It's not just the quest that intrepid leader "Grug" must manage, he's also got the constantly hormonal "Eep" and "Guy" to contend with too! Anyway, they stumble upon a positively Elysian land of lush green grass, waterfalls - and bananas - and that's where they encounter the pretty supercilious "Betterman" family. They'd be the posh "Flintstones" with all the bamboo mod cons - even the original picture window! It's soon clear, though, that these two families are fac...

<em>'The Croods: A New Age'</em> makes for a good sequel.

I didn't mind the original from 2013 (that long ago, eh?), I found it passable but did have to watch a recap video before watching this entry as I remembered absolutely nothing; aside from the first few scenes.

Led by Guy, the Croods journey to find Tomorrow. What they find is a paradise created by the Betterman's, a family who considers themselves more advanced than the Croods and who helped raise Guy when he was a child.

The characterizations are flawless with each entirely unique. Great family fun! -- DrNostromo.com...
