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.

Critics Consensus

Another agreeable outing for the titular prehistoric clan, The Croods: A New Age may be the missing link for parents between more elevated family-friendly fare.

For all that empowerment one can't help but yearn for the sexist tropes and superior caveman jokes of The Flintstones.

[A] raucous, nakedly commercial but also wickedly funny sequel.

The formula here was also basically the same as the first movie, which lended itself to a lot of predictable moments.

4/5

The film is like watching a rollercoaster ride; it’s wildly entertaining, and its humour manages to hit the mark, being legitimately funny through the surrealism.

...as the Bettermans’ plan begins to unravel, things rev up until the thrilling, laugh-fueled finale with plenty of great humor and familial frustrations along the way.

I liked the plot. I reminds me families between the 60's and 80's when families had part into the lives of their children. Nowadays government wants to have that control and is kind of embedding this sad idea of independency, but independency without guidance equals hurt and chaos. I think the movie does open a good door for family discussions. I enjoyed. It poked fun for all, even at those that enjoy a puff here and there.
