After suffering through four Ice Age movies (well, suffering through installments two through four anyhow) the science-be-damned plot of "primitive critters trying to outrun the rapid destruction of their habitat" seems like it should completely exhausted by now. And while DreamWorks' The Croods doesn't necessarily put a new spin on the story, it does manage to do it, along with the father/daughter rift from last summer's Continental Drift, a whole lot better. If you're a parent then you know all too well that when it comes to kids' movies, some are an absolute chore and some are enjoyable.
