How To Train Your Dragon director/screenwriter Chris Sanders & Kirk DeMicco crank up the fun in the CGI animated comedy The Croods.
Aided by some great voicework (particularly Ryan Reynolds hilariously perfecting smug bastard), some colorful heart-racing action scenes and composer Alan Silvestri doing his best work since The Mummy Returns, the film is light on substance but high on fast-paced entertainment. The first 15 minutes might be a little too boring but I think it's intentional to polarize the ride you're taken on afterwards. It's really goofy but the heart of the story wins you over with laughs and action.
