Touching Caveman Family Fun

Rating: 8/10 (9 October 2013)

The Croods is a caveman family headed by Grug (Nicolas Cage). He avoids everything scary and they mostly hide in their cave. Only the daughter Eep (Emma Stone) isn't happy to be stuck in their cave. One night she wanders off and runs into Guy (Ryan Reynolds), a fire starting human. He's trying to escape the end of the world. Grug isn't happy but soon he finds himself slowly replaced as head of the family.
This is a great family movie with a loving message. The family is full of love, and there really isn't an evil character unless you count the animals trying to eat the family. It's message is a great one of family love.
The animation is colorful and well drawn. It is top of the line animation. The action is exciting. There is good humor and humanity in this. Everything works quite well. Good family fun.
