Just watched this movie and I must say, it's wonderful! I know that I watched the first movie but don't remember any of it. I actually forgot about it's existence before I saw the trailer to this and was like, 'Oh yeah! That movie that I remember literally nothing about, except for that one redheaded girl that I don't remember the name of but was (and still is) my favorite character!' But when I sat down to watch this movie (in the completely empty movie theater might I add) I had no expectations except that it was going to be a bad movie that's only purpose for existence was to make some money, AND OH HO HO BOY WAS I WRONG! This movie gave me such a trip to the past it was so wonderful that it's unable to put into words! The characters personally was so accurate to what I can remember it's AMAZING! And I'm very sure that it's the same voice actors as well! When I saw Eep for the first time in this movie as well I got SO excited! I was just, 'Hey, it's her! That one character that I like so much but cant remember the name of! DgksgusttjdyiyeyxyaffjdykshlstkffigishodygdykAHHHHHHHHHH!' Obviously that last part was internal but was busting out a bit. I love the relationship the characters all share as well, because its told so well, and the fact that the cast isnt dominated by a female or male cast. It's all a good mix together! But my favorite part is that instead of the cliche 'male saves the female' it's the other way around, and I love it. Also the fact that there's just ONE guy in the group of females to help save the other guys from being eaten by a giant porcupine monkey thing, I find wonderfully hilarious! The story, the animation, all the way down the the incredible humor! It was perfect! I'm so happy that this exists because before this movie, the Croods were something that was buried in the back of my mind of the memories long forgot, but when I saw the trailer for this movie, the Croods completely resurrected itself in my mind and it was the best thing ever. So if you can, just go and watch this movie, you will not regret it. Trust me.
10/10 reccomend this movie.
P.S. The fact that 3 different characters all get jabbed in the eye with three separate wooden stick-like things is the best gag in entire movie.
