HISTORY OF THE EARLY MAN: When the evil king Lord Nooth (Tom Hiddleston) throws the native inhabitants of the Age of Stonge, out of his valley, the caveman Dug (Eddie Redmayne) resolves to recover what belongs to them by law.
EARLY REVIEW: With the sole intention of recovering his valley from the complicity of the tyrant Lord Nooth, Dug and the head of cavemen Bobnar (Timothy Spall) began a very disorderly mission to acquire their ancestral properties by beating their unpleasant opponents from the Bronze Age in the soccer game. The obstacle? A cold opponent of a king, who is armed with a plethora of skilled players, and his own long history of losing in the game they had originally invented.
Like any other animated film, 'Early Man' is visually exciting and there is always a new element of surprise waiting for you every few minutes. But, coming from a genre that generally promises fun and fun, and caters to the younger ones, this film stays flat on the front of the humor, without some lines of blow.
In addition, the weird (script) resembling one of our few Oscar honors, which had cricket as its game of conflict between the weak and the powerful, is too hard to ignore.
Tom Hiddleston and Eddie Redmayne are classics in their respective parts, Maisie Williams is also personal. But, Nick Park could have taken this film to another level if he had worked a little more in humor. In addition, the recurring theme of this film seems to be the brotherhood and emphasizes the importance of team spirit: both are forced and barely come into existence.
