The Croods: A New Age is a 2020 animated film by DreamWorks Animation, a sequel to 2013's The Croods. It is directed by Joel Crawford.Set sometime after the original film, the Croods have been searching for a new home. Father Grug Crood is aggravated by his oldest daughter Eep's plans to move away and start a new pack with her 'modern' boyfriend Guy. Along the way they meet another family of humans: Hope and Phil Betterman, who are old friends of Guy's deceased parents. Phil and Hope allow the Croods to move in with them, though they are truly interested in keeping only Guy as a mate for their daughter Dawn. Despite the intentions on match-making, shy Dawn befriends the rebellious Eep while her parents scheme and manipulate Grug and Ugga.The Betterman's treehouse and farm amenities absolutely delight Guy but his materialistic fascination causes jealousy in his girlfriend Eep.The tensions between the parents and the young couple flare until a secret of Phil's brings out danger. Despite their family differences everyone must come together to save their loved ones.Originally set for a release on November 3, 2017, the film was temporarily cancelled following Universal's acquisition of DreamWorks Animation. However, it was Un-Canceled in late 2017 and theatrically released on November 25, 2020. An animated series following up on the events of the film, The Croods: Family Tree, premiered in September 2021 on Hulu and Peacock. | |

In the climax, Thunk throws a rock at the Spiky Mandrilla, which seems to completely miss. As it lands on the ground, the rock launches a branch right into the Mandrilla's eye. | |

Poor Communication Kills: If Phil had just explained to Grug why the bananas should not be eaten, it would have saved everyone a ton of grief! Granted, it wouldn’t have sparked the events that led to the Punch Monkeys being liberated and the Croods, Bettermans, and Punch Monkeys living in harmony. | |

Condescending Compassion | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_220c23cb | comment |
Much like Guy and the Croods in the first film, the contrast between the Croods and the Bettermans can be read as a take on real relations between Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons (albeit with far less genocide). In this case, it creates a contrast between the Croods' old hunter/gatherer way of life versus the Betterman's advancement into farming and domesticating animals. While the Croods have a much more fulfilled way of living as a pack, it is also fraught with constant danger. The Bettermans live a much safer, more carefree life thanks to technological advancement, but it has left the Cro-Magnons to vent their aggression through Condescending Compassion, their daughter Dawn bereft of real life character-building life experience, or "scars." | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Eep's "peanut toe." At the end of the film, the Spiny Mandrilla is clinging to Eep's foot, only to show that it was actually holding onto the previously-established peanut toe. The toe comes off and the Mandrilla falls to its death. Thunk's Running Gag of accidentally launching sticks into creatures' eyes. He accidentally uses it against the Spiny Mandrilla at a crucial moment. | |

Character Development | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Grug and Phil are both flawed dads, but in very different ways. Both are overprotective of their daughters, but while Grug has learned to let Eep be independent from his Character Development in the first film, Phil allows only a shallow idea of independence (like letting her have her own room), but is otherwise too controlling to let her discover things on her own. While Grug is prone to smother his family (can't sleep without a sleep-pile, listens in on Guy and Eep's conversations, is terrified of the two of them leaving), Phil puts up literal and metaphorical walls (the wall around the property, his "pact" with the Punch-Monkeys and his secret man-cave) that alienates them. While Grug hated having Guy around and has tried to keep him away from Eep, Phil and his wife have tried to get Guy and Dawn together. | |

Happy Ending Override: Downplayed. The previous film ended with the family seemingly settling down in Tomorrow, while the sequel opens with them once again facing struggling to survive in the wilderness. However, they're clearly much more experienced and prepared to face the perils and their dynamic is more cooperative and trusting than it was before, and they've all mostly moved past the fears that held them back in the first film. | |

Fantastic Racism: While they try to be polite, Phil and Hope come to the conclusion that the Neanderthal Croods don't belong in their corner of the world and attempt to get them to leave without Guy, who they think belong with his fellow Cro-Magnons. It isn't until much later do they both come to respect their differences, Hope apologizing and Phil becoming "banana bros" with Grug. | |

| The Croods: A New Age / int_603b77ec | comment |
Savage Wolves: Subverted. When Hope gets trapped in an ice cave, the spider wolves spot her and prepare to attack her. It doesn't help that the rest of the Croods and Bettermans (except Guy, Grug and Phil) draw out their weapons. When Dawn notices a spider wolf pup, however, she tells everyone to drop their weapons. It's revealed that the spider wolves were hostile because they were protective over the pup. This trope is double subverted when Thunk starts petting them, causing the adult wolves to attack him. Finally, the trope is subverted again when the Croods and Bettermans tame them. | |

Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!: When he learns about how the Punch Monkeys lost their water supply, Phil confidently boasts that he was able to create an oasis by changing the direction of the river from a mountain... before realizing that the same mountain he used to create his home was the one the Punch Monkeys got their water supply from. This promptly turns the Punch Monkeys against him, Grug, and Guy. | |

Underground Monkey | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_6e7a3cd | comment |
Underground Monkey: The punch monkeys from the first movie are expanded upon into an entire tribe of various subspecies. There are now kick monkeys, head-butt monkeys, low-blow monkeys, ab-tight monkeys, tail smashers and stranglers, brain squeezers, and one that has a very creepy appearance with big, bloodshot, staring eyes (called "creepo monkey" in promotional material). | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: All of Phil's attempts at getting the monkeys to bend to his will only tightens their trapped-state more and more. He takes a stick and sharpens it using the ground to threaten them with it, only for the monkeys to copy him and now they all have spears. Phil makes a torch to scare them with his fire, only for the monkeys to snatch it away and now they all have fire. He even instructs them out to tie them up better because he found their knots subpar. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment: Phil and Hope Betterman are introduced hiding behind elaborate shielding even after the Croods have been incapacitated. When they realized that they had captured cave-people and not any vicious animals, they free them and try to communicate to them as though they are small children, dropping it when they realize that they can speak their language just fine. This establishes the Bettermans as well-meaning, but easily shaken and condescending. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: When they first meet, Eep approaches Dawn in a threatening manner, suggesting that she views her as a potential threat. She suddenly picks Dawn up in celebration and is utterly overjoyed to finally meet another girl her own age. Once Grug learns what the Bettermans truly think of his family, he and Ugga begin to devolve into animalistic mindsets in their anger... only for Ugga to quickly put the kabosh on the idea of them mindlessly rampaging through Tomorrow and just decide to eat all the Bettermans' bananas in revenge. After Grug ate all the bananas in the offering, something is violently rattling the wall until it falls to reveal... one tiny Punch-Monkey. Grug laughs at Phil being afraid of a small monkey for all those years, but stops laughing when the Punch-Monkey summons its dozens of friends. When the Spiny Mandrilla finally appears, its face at first looks like it's sporting an adorable smile. That turns out to be its wrinkled forehead above a truly horrifying visage. In the climax, Thunk throws a rock at the Spiky Mandrilla, which seems to completely miss. As it lands on the ground, the rock launches a branch right into the Mandrilla's eye. At the end of the movie, Guy and Eep are shown with backpacks announcing their intention to move away and begin their life together. The scene plays out like a traditional forever goodbye moment...then it's revealed they're just moving into their separate apartment three meters away. | |

Better to Die than Be Killed: When the Croods first see the Bettermans' wall and believe they've reached the "End of the World", Gran climbs into Chunky's mouth and closes herself in, preferring to be eaten by him rather than anything out there. Chunky doesn't swallow her, however, and lets her out after they see what's behind the wall. | |

Inevitably Broken Rule: The Bettermans have two rules: for Dawn, it's "do not leave the wall." For the Croods, it's "eat anything but the bananas." For Dawn, it gets broken when Eep takes her over the wall on Chunky's back, resulting in her getting stung by a bee. With Grug, he eats all of the bananas out of spite when he finds out that Phil was trying to manipulate him, causing the Punch-Monkeys they were keeping at bay to kidnap Guy and the both of them. | |

| The Croods: A New Age / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: When Gran announces the newest iteration of the Thunder Sisters, she rips off her pelt, revealing her Chainmail Bikini made from tortoise shells. While she's surprisingly muscular under her usual outfit, she's still an old lady. An old lady without her wig. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
| The Croods: A New Age / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: The story adds two things to the characters that don't add up to the first movie, and Rule of Funny doesn't explain them well: Grug says he hasn't seen a banana since childhood, while in the original Guy showed up with lots of them to appease Punch Monkeys; and Gran was confused about the concept of a pet being an animal you don't eat, stating that they call those children, only for this movie to reveal she had a pet that’s revealed to be her wig (who she doesn’t attempt to eat). Averted if her hair loss happened between movies. Eep mentions she has never had a best friend before; in the prequel series, Dawn of the Croods, she had Lerk, who managed to find them after The End. She doesn't even appear in this movie. | |

Lighter and Softer: While the first film had its funnier moments, the plot revolved around the family trying to outrun a world-breaking cataclysm and the stakes were played completely seriously. In this film, the main conflict is about the Croods learning to live with other people, with the main threat being an army of invading Punch-Monkeys. | |

Inelegant Blubbering: Twice. Right after the dinner scene, Guy walks in on Phil leaned over a giant bowl of banana peels sobbing his eyes out, with Grug (who had eaten the bananas) awkwardly standing behind him. You can briefly see an anime-esque snot bubble at one point and everything. Near the end of the movie when Eep and Guy move into their own apartment together, Grug drops down on the ground and starts sobbing about his 'baby leaving' even though the couple's apartment is only about three meters away from the rest of the houses. | |

Art Evolution No pun intended on the "evolution" word, mind you. This film shows the Croods being much more detailed than in their previous film. Per the norm of the evolving technology, the lighting is far more breathtaking. Eep's 2D cave drawings segments now resemble the art style of Dawn of the Croods. | |

For the rest of the film, both get along very well, Eep's problems with Guy having nothing to do with Dawn. | |

Heart Symbol: Eep draws hearts on her journal, thinking they are what love must look like. This is parodied when Eep and Guy are dreamingly looking at each other while the other Croods are struggling with hostile creatures, which serendipitously create heart shapes in the background. Culminates in the climax, with the Spiny Mandrilla taken down by a giant skull that looks like a heart from above. | |
