Film Story
A neanderthal cave family calledthe Croods survives due to the overprotective nature of their stubborn, sternpatriarch, father, Grug. The only one who questions the family's sheltered lifeis his teenaged daughter Eep who frequently disobeys her father's orders out ofcuriosity, which he finds dangerous. Grug and Eep, along with her mother andhis wife Ugga, her grandmother Gran, and her younger brother and sister Thunkand Sandy face time sheltered in their cave home.
Eep sneaks out when she sees what shediscovers to be a torch of fire and she encounters an inventivecromagnon boy named Guy and his pet sloth Belt. He warns herof an impending apocalypse and offers to take her with him, but concerned forher family, Eep stays, getting a shell horn from him to blow in case she needshis help. Reuniting with her frantic father, she tries to tell her family whatGuy told her, but fearing things that are "different" and"new" Grug destroys her horn.
A massive earthquake then destroys theirhome, and to avoid the earlier carnivore, they descend down into a tropicalforest that lay hidden behind their cave all the time. Encountering a"Macawnivore" a brightly colored feline that Gran dubs "Chunkythe Death Cat," the family flees him until he is deterred by swarms ofpiranhakeets that devoured a ground whale. Using another horn, Eep callsto Guy who rescues them from the birds with his fire. After a great deal ofconfusion regarding their first contact with fire, Grug imprisons Guy in a loguntil he can guide them somewhere safe.
Outrunning the destruction, Guy is trustedenough to be let out of the log and he gives the Croods rudimentary shoes towalk over the harsh landscape as he leads them to a mountain in which he sayswill be safe. Guy also tells them stories of "Tomorrow" a haven ofsafety where he is headed and where curiosity is not deadly as Grug hadclaimed. At his treetop home, Grug sees the impression Guy is leaving on hisfamily and he becomes jealous, especially when he realizes that Eep has fallenin love with Guy. Attempting to invent things like Guy, Grug only furtherembarrasses himself and drives his family further away from him. After thefamily is split up in a labyrinth of tunnels, all but Grug manages to escape bycoming up with ideas of overcoming obstacles in their paths.
Reaching the mountain, Grug tries to forcehis family to hide out in a cave, but they resist, telling him that they can'tlive in caves anymore, that they don't want to "survive" but to"live". This enrages Grug, who attacks Guy and the both of them endup in a tar flow where Grug learns that Guy's family had perished inone. Realizing that Guy's method of survival is better for his family, Grugworks with him and they lure Chunky into a trap to free themselves. The familyreunites, then flees a massive cataclysm as the land begins to violently ripapart.
The family is cut off from theirdestination by a continental split, but Grug, realizing the errors of his waysdecides to throw his family to safety. He shares an invention he calls a"hug" with Eep, briefly before sending her across as well. Cut offfrom his family, Grug finds a cave for safety, where he encounters Chunky; whois truly a frightened and sweet feline, and he comes up with an idea to getacross the chasm. Using a skeleton and the Piranhakeets to fashion a simpleairship, Grug manages to send themselves; including several animals the familyhad encountered during their journey, across the chasm, reuniting with hisfamily once again. He apologizes to them all and promises to never be sooverbearing again.
Later, the Croods now live on the land andhave settled on a vast beach where every day they can follow the light to"Tomorrow."
