My kids have seen the previews for The Croods and have been asking to go this weekend, so I what what I will be doing, especially since they are calling for up to 3 inches of snow in the ‘Nati this weekend!
THE CROODS is a 3D comedy adventure that follows the world’s first modern family through the journey of a lifetime. When the cave that has always been their home is destroyed – with the rest of their world not far behind it – The Croods are forced to set off on the first family road (or path) trip. Rocked by generational clashes and seismic shifts, The Croods discover an incredible new world filled with fantastic creatures, and a future beyond any they imagined.
The Crood family dynamics, though unfolding a few million years ago, feel like they could come from your own household. Like most fathers, family patriarch Grug (Nicolas Cage) is fiercely protective of his wife and three kids. His hyper-vigilance has kept his cave-bound family safe, secure and….super- bored. Grug’s strong and dutiful better half, Ugga (Catherine Keener), accepts her husband’s “fear is good; change is bad” mentality, as does their son Thunk (Clark Duke), who’s content with the static status quo. Feisty mother-in-law Gran (Cloris Leachman) never tires of needling (or sometimes assaulting) Grug; and stone-tough toddler Sandy might be the fiercest Crood yet. But leave it to a rebellious teenager (is there any other kind?) to stand up to parental authority. Grug’s sole focus is survival, but Eep (Emma Stone) wants to actually live, and her curiosity about the world outside their cave collides with her dad’s primitive rules. (Ever the defiant outsider, Eep gets her own ledge to sleep on while the rest of the Croods form a “sleep pile” for some group shut-eye.) A cataclysmic event forces the Croods to venture into parts unknown and rethink their way of living. En route, they encounter Guy (Ryan Reynolds), whose dazzling new discoveries – like fire…and shoes – shake up the Croods in unexpected ways. Most of the family (especially Eep) is smitten by Guy’s vision of a new place called “tomorrow,” but Grug sees the biggest calamity yet: a charming teenage boy from which he must “protect” Eep.
The Croods soon realize that if they don’t evolve…they’re history.

We went to see The Croods with a group of 8 f us and it was wonderful to see everyone from age 5 to 62 all laughing at the same parts for the same reasons. No off-color humor and afterwards all of the kids were quoting lines from the movie, especially Belt, “Da da daaaaaaaaa” with arms spread wide! Great family entertainment….I admit I was pleasantly surprised.
My husband and I are taking the kids next weekend!
Yes, I’d really like to take my Grandkids! Thanks for the chance….
Yes! I’m going to probably wait until it gets to the $1.50 theatre, and then take my daughter! She turns 1 this month:]
I would like to take my 4yr old daughter.
I’m not sure if we will be able to go see this in theaters because we live in the boonies and the nearest movie theater is very small and it doesn’t get all the movies. If it comes to our area I would love to take the whole family to see it. I’m always looking for a great family movie to watch. We were lucky enough to see The Hobbit which I was surprised we actually got it at our little theater so we may get lucky with this one too. Thanks for sharing this fun filled review and giveaway~!

I can’t wait to see this movie! This is reserved for a date with my nephew. Thanks so much for the “sneak peek!” Movies cost an arm and a leg anymore so I almost never go to the theater without at least viewing the trailer. Fyi.. another great way to view the latest trailers: http://www.real.com/resources/new-movie-trailers-previews
