Los Croods 2: Una nueva era

While the story hasn't evolved that much, 'The Croods: A New Age' has a line-up of talented voice cast, lively and colorful animation, some big laugh-out-loud moments, and a great message about getting along and working together to turn it into a decent, pleasant sequel.

Very entertaining movie and already achieved world wide success . It will delight both kids and adults. Great acting, amazing direction and great story.

The story and dialogue is pretty cliched but the animation is amazing. Just a beautiful movie. I love all the hybrid animals, who would have thought a wolf spider could be so cute.

Okay... this has got to be one of the most exhilarating and bubbly animated movie ever made. Thankfully I was just in the mood for something perky, not too childish but not too sober, so overall it was a positive experience.

They really weren't kidding about "a new age". The tale presumably takes place in early prehistoric times, but really it reflects way more on our contemporary society than it does to people living in the stone age. Expect tons and tons of hilarious references to modern culture and society sprinkled throughout the movie.

I definitely had my laughs. However, some ideas/references/analogies could come off as a bit forced or rushed or just plain cringey. For example, Thunk's abrupt realization that the "window" is a distorted view of reality was honestly a cringey attempt to convey the concept of media bias. There's also the much toned down but still palpable feminist agenda (e.g. WYMEN!). And then there are all these other random instances of modern analogies that just seem to develop out of nowhere (e.g. the 'bro love' scene with Grug and Phil, etc).

These instances may not detract from the movie, especially not for kids, but it still gives this movie a bitter aftertaste; you could tell that this movie was made in 2020.

Also lastly-and it has to do with the plot-I was quite disappointed that that Dawn Betterman didn't have much of a role compared to all the other characters. I feel like she could've used a bit more spotlight.

Overall I would have liked the movie even more if they didn't cram so much of these random and unnecessary tie-ins to modern ideas and principles. It just complicates a rather simple plot.

What a visually impressive film. I guess it's something to be expected of this day and age.. but I still can't get over how good it looks. And not just hilarious facial expressions, structures, lighting and color usage.. but the injection of modern ideas and references transformed to an ancient period (the concept of a "joyride" and coming back late). The writers of this movie are pretty smart and creative! Almost geniuses!!

Each dialogue and idea is well thought out, has a point and doesn't waste anything. The entire movie is so well made that I'm seriously impressed no one is talking about it. Initially, I thought it was going to be one of those photoplays that fails to recapture the essence of the original.. but this one goes beyond.

I would even watch it again! And that is, to me, a sign of a good movie.. worth re-watching.
