Over the Hedge
Review by: Laura
The very last snowflake has melted. Winter is over. And it is time for Verne the turtle and his buds to fill the log with food again before hibernation again. Then, ArJ the raccoon arrives and introduces the gang to human food, which they immediately take a liking to and decide to fill their log with human food. Over the week, the gang collects human food from the neighborhood behind, including a temper-mental real estate agent. What the gang of animals don't know is that ArJ is repaying an impatient bear with that food they are stealing. Will ArJ get to stay with the family he never had and repay the bear?
This no doubt one of the best animated movies of the year! Bruce Willis leads an all-star voice cast including Steve Carell and Avril Laviegne. Steve Carell does a remarkable job of voicing a hyperactive squirrel and Bruce Willis voices ArJ with perfection. One of my favorite scenes is when ArJ explains the relationship between humans and food. It's so true, it's funny!! I am laughing at this as we speak! lol!!! The animals look so cute with the animation!
This the best animated movie this year so far! A definite nod for Animated Picture come Oscar time!!!
