An interesting point that smacks of the 90s but judging by its thin content it would have served better as a short film.
This movie has a distinct corny family programming from the Eighties or Nineties feel to it with low-logic writing and goofy plot devices. One particular example of the many dated tropes in this film is a kid that's a little on the heavy side delivering the comic relief, and doing this by acting inappropriately towards women, what everyone in the movie seems to think is normal. The datedness continues by ignoring the history of Native Americans, you know, the original, historical inhabitants of the area? Which would have been quite fitting and easily achieved. Instead we get some hyper-aggressive cavemen. It's not all bad and it sure has some interesting moments that kind of make you want to keep watching, but that just reminds you that the film should have spent a lot more time in its cave preparing before emerging in 2020.
I can just suffice to tell you this film has a low-budget/student film feel in all of the movie's aspects (writing, editing, flow), so you'll need have patience with everything as you watch.
I guess all positive reviews (e.g. Rotten Tomatoes) seem to keep this in mind but this is not made clear, which has most likely lead to these (in my eyes) problematic recommendations.
If you are expecting a mature or commercial film like I was, move on, as I can tell you I went in with that mindset and was quickly bored here.
