Meet The Croods

We watched "The Croods" last week night, and I liked it. It's an animation about cavemen and I always found human anthropology intriguing.

"The Croods" is a very creative movie as far as cavemen movie is concerned, we decided.

At first I was annoyed by the father Crood, because he was afraid of everything and was very protective of his family. He was afraid of anything new, different, and he was afraid of curiosity and adventures. That's how he kept the family, all 6 of them, alive, while the neighbors were all killed by different causes.

Then he and the family met this guy:Guy, who was one stage more evolved then them. Guy went on a journey with the family and helped them ran away from the earth's eruption and found safe grounds.

There were fantastic creatures and encounters along the journey.

I think the movie teaches us a simple yet powerful evolutionary lesson. Sometimes you may survive by hiding in a cave or stick your head in the sand, whatever, but if you do so, you stop growing and discovering, and may be forced into extinction.
