Not as much fun for the family as some may elude.

Over the Hedge (2006) is a somewhat entertaining animated movie. There were many name voice actors, but none were obvious to me, which, of course, doesn’t say much for me. The trailer implied that the primary focus of this one was the environmental destruction accomplished by urban sprawl, although that gets buried by the up-front plot which has to do with the accumulation of food for the Winter for the animals. An odd assortment of forest animals, sort of led by Verne, a tortoise, awaken from hibernation and set about to collect food. But it isn’t as simple as that. It seems that a fast-talking raccoon, RJ, stole the food cache of the local bear, then lost it, and must get it back within a week or face the consequences.. Most of the movie is the various woodland animals stealing junk food from the suburban residents; it isn’t about the animals, urban encroachment, or the environment. It does seem that the only food of interest is junk food, with emphasis on the junk. To add some spice to the movie, two villains are introduced; there is the harpy president of the home owners association and the Verminator. It would have been a better movie if they had concentrated on the environmental theme, but then it probably wouldn’t have passed as a kids’ movie.

Cute movie for my daughters collection. The characters are really cute and there aren't major scary parts that we have to fast forward past! It's a movie adults can sit through and enjoy too!

Pure Summer Fun
A.Trendl HungarianBookstore.com | Glen Ellyn, IL USA | 05/20/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

""Over the Hedge" is funny. Pure summer fun, the kind of movie a car full of seventh grade boys see with a car full of seventh grade girls. While it was only released in May, it has all the makings of a summer movie, like the old Peanuts movies. Nothing here is too complicated to understand, most of it is pretty silly, and all of it is safe for the entire family.

When movies are made, they intend an audience, and an audience reaction. Here, the bar was not set to be compared to the sentimental depth of "Finding Nemo," or the abject, hyperactive hilarity of "Aladdin." Here, "Over the Hedge" has a basic plot, and a basic conflict, and does the job it sets out to do.

RJ the Raccoon owes a very angry bear a wagon load of snacks, and realizes the new human suburb is packed with these snacks. He meets up with a friendly, but not too smart neighborhood of small forest animals, led by a careful-thinking turtle named Vern.

The characters are strong, each is distinguished from the other, with distinctive personalities, unlike the overblown homogeny found in some cartoons. This matters especially here, as there are more animals than some younger children will be familiar with.

Can RJ persuade the animals to help him steal the snacks from the humans? Will Vern remain the sensible leader, and help them avoid the 'Verminator' and his viscous animal killing tools?

For me, the funniest scene is an almost Matrix-like action sequence when the ordinarily hyper Hammy drinks a caffeine drink and goes in on a mission. Time stops, but not for Hammy.

The animation is good enough, and the story is told straight-ahead, without catchy songs. No one will leave the theater thinking, "That's incredible production value!" They will leave laughing, with an original story.

The structure of the movie is the reverse of Man vs his environment. As the humans take over former forest, there are fewer places for the animals to find food. Naturally, the animals smell potato chips and want more. Naturally, also, the humans want to retain a hedge between the woods and their home.

Messages about Man encroaching on his environment are throughout, but these do not overtake the movie. It might leave a few suburban moms and dads feeling a little sheepish, but everyone will laugh too much to really have a guilt trip.

I fully recommend "Over the Hedge."

Over the hedge is over the top
Daniel Lee Taylor | GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas United States | 08/11/2006

"A very funny and well executed new animated feature. The story is well written and the voices are well cast. The script is full of fun poking at current day society. When asked how many people normally travel in a SUV, Bruce Willis replies one. There are swipes at video games and high end consumer goods. The most fun is poked at food and the eating habits of the average American. The kids should like the animals and the grown ups should like the humor. There is something here for everybody. This is fun, try it."
FANTASTIC.............

"This movie was very very funny. The Story was great, how the animals worked together even were they where being decieved. The kids in the movie were very well done, so were the animals. I do not think that they could have done a better job!!! I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Well Done."
