A prehistoric man, Grug, and his ferocious family awake, when an earthquake strikes. All they have to do is to run out of their comfortable cave-apartments and accept their fate of "caveless" wanderers traveling uncharted and fantastical world. As they travel, a prehistoric genius meets them on their way. His name – Guy, and he tries to use his brain, not strength, in contrast as Grug does. This unusual, as per those times, behavior makes him derelict in eyes of contemporaries. Especially in the eyes of Crug, whose oldest daughter, Eep, seems to be fallen in love with Guy. This inappropriate order of things: a sudden earthquake, a crazy nerd, and unexpected maturing of the daughter makes Crug's world being ruining. However, the rest of his family is less worried of these events: Ugga, Grug's wife; Thunk, their fat but kind son; and Gran Grug's mother-in-law and his main enemy in this world. If you are not excited with the story, think about how The Croods was made. Produced by Kirk De Micco, Chris Sanders and voiced by Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds and Emma Stone, the animated movie looks much better then How to Train Your Dragon, the one that has put The Croods on hold in 2010.

With the combined talent of director Steven Spielberg (Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan) and producer Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings Trilogy, King Kong (2005)) plus a stellar cast, this is one movie that can be appreciated by everyone who goes to movies. Based on a comic book series The Adventures of Tintin, and filmed in animated 3D, they've taken the story from three in the series, The Crab with the Golden Claws, Red Rackham's timely Treasure, and The Secret of the Unicorn.oices are provided by Jamie Bell (King Kong, Flags of our Fathers) as the comic strip character Tintin, Daniel Craig (Cowboys & Aliens, Quantum of Solace) gives voice to Red Rackham, and Simon Pegg (Star Trek (2009), Mission Impossible: III). Tintin finds he has a famous ancestor in Sir Francis Haddock and they set off to find a treasure left behind. With protection from an escaped prisoner they go after the treasure while a pare of inept detectives try as well.

A Monsters, Inc prequel, Monsters University is the next Pixar's big thing in a world of animated movies. The story of Monsters University follows the footsteps of chummy Mike and Sulley (remember the adventures hairy blue monster and one-eyed Pokémon-like creature?) In the times when they both attended The University of Fear- they were not so friendly to each other. To say more – they can't stand each other, due to their impressive differences. Now we witness not only their misfortunate adventures, but the story of how they become best friends forever. The voices of Steve Buscemi, Rob Riggle, John Goodman, Jennifer Tilly, Ken Jeong, Kelsey Grammer, Joel Murray, John Ratzenberger and, of course, Billy Crystal are still unparalleled and perfectly match the appropriate monsters' personalities. Another thing we like in Monsters franchise is the unbeatable atmosphere of the monster's world pictured by superb Pixar's director Dan Scanlon. He depicts the world where monsters educate how to bring the fear to earthling children in unsurpassed laughable yet ridiculous manner that become a kind of his "brand" almost ten years before Monsters University release, when Monsters, Inc won the hearts of worldwide audience, leaving no one indifferent to Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan adventures and charming personalities.
