The Croods (2013)
The prehistoric Croods family live in a particularly dangerous moment in time. Patriarch Grug, his mate Ugga, teenage daughter Eep, son Thunk, and feisty Gran gather food by day and huddle together in a cave at night. When a more evolved caveman named Guy arrives on the scene, Grug is distrustful, but it soon becomes apparent that Guy is correct about the impending destruction of their world.

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Absolutely Brilliant!
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This movie is more than just entertainment. Don´t be fooled by the worn out caveman theme, or because it´s an animation. This is not The Flintstones or else. It´s a fun and original story that tells more than it appears to tell. This movie is about deep questions of mankind, especially how we deal with knowledge, how we learn things, how we resist to change, the role of fear in our survival etc. There´s a lot of science in it, in a fun and light way. Evolutionary theory, psychology, sociology, even it suggests the origin of football, as they go hunt for an egg. Well, this is an underrated movie, that lost the Oscar award to Frozen.
Think if Dreamworks try to take their twist on Ice Age but focuses on a modern cave family. What do you get? You get a smi good and fun that will have your little ones laughing till they die. While at most points it's trys to be too modern and a bit cliche manly at the first half and takes away form the story and focuses on just pop cultural references and modern jokes. Which makes the film fall flat on. But of coruse this film isn't all that bad. Nicolas Cage voice work was one thing that worked in this. But even with that, it's because he's a over the top actor so it's not that hard to laugh at. As for the other voice work like Emma Stone and Ryan Reynolds, they didn't do half bad. Plus I really enjoy the world they go through. It's wonderful to look at.
This movie is so enjoyable to watch. First, we have the cavemen - which are I would say enough realistic with their primary behavior. Then we have a whole bunch of fluffy, colorful and pretty peculiar animals (and plants) always seeking to eat our characters. Then this handsome hunter-gatherer arrives and saves the day. The plot is very typical for an animated movie, but it is really enjoyable to watch and the humor is fresh. There are spectacular scenes of deserts, rain forests, flying turtles, coral reefs (no water in them though). Someone had lots of fun creating all those impossible animals. And there is adorable father- daughter jealousy when the young guy (Guy) arrives. It is just lovely!
The Croods take place many years ago in a prehistoric time that should be like the stone age on planet earth and at the same time it presents creatures, colors and scenery that is not of this earth :) Lets just say that this family is different, they are strange and yet peculiar familiar, they are a good blend of characters and they live in an interesting world.There are great animations, it might not be like a Disney classic or Pixar film, but Dreamworks really hits the spot with this different and sometimes weird family animation film. It is very entertaining and the characters are both charming, likable and sometimes strange, but they fit into the story and experience a lot of new stuff and that keeps you interested and watching all the way.
