Over the Hedge

If you like animated films or are looking for a good movie to watch with your kids, be sure to check this one out. Also, if you're into Ben Folds, you'll love the soundtrack, as he did nearly every song you hear in the movie.

It starts out with us meeting RJ, a raccoon with a knack for stealing food, whether it be from campers, trash cans or vending machines. his antics go a bit too far when he attempts to steal a wagon full of junkfood from a bear, a week prior to his hibernation wake up call. the bear decides that instead of eating RJ right away, he'll give him 1 week to regather all the food that he lost. in his efforts to run away, RJ comes across a community of forest critters, such as a skunk, some hedgehogs, porcupines, a turtle and an ADD squirrel, who, just coming out of hibernation themselves, find a giant hedge built just outside their woods with an entire subdivision on the otherside. in an attempt to help them gather food faster, RJ uses them to get the items he needs to give to the bear to save his own skin, but in the process learns about family and having a home.

features the voices of Bruce Willis, William Shatner, Wanda Sykes, and Steve Carrell.

it was cute.
