Beneath the polished bamboo floors of the Betterman estate lies a tension that even a “primitive” caveman can smell. The Croods: A New Age pits Grug’s raw, “pack-first” mentality against Phil Betterman’s enlightened—and slightly condescending—”me-first” philosophy. While Phil tries to tempt Guy with the wonders of a personal grooming routine and a private bedroom, Hope Betterman attempts to steer Eep away from Guy’s heart. But as the “Modern Age” clashes with the “Stone Age,” both families realize that walls don’t just keep predators out—they keep people apart. When a troop of Punch Monkeys decides to crash the party, the Bettermans learn that all the irrigation in the world won’t save you if you’ve forgotten how to fight for your life.
