Product Description:
Spring has sprung and Verne and his woodland friends awaken from their long winter's nap to discover that a tall green 'thing' has mysteriously cropped up right through the middle of their home. Enter RJ an opportunistic raccoon who explains that the world beyond the hedge is the 'gateway to the good life' where peculiar creatures called humans live to eat rather than eat to live. Suspicious and even a little jealous of RJ the ever-cautious Verne wants to keep his blended family safely on their side of the hedge. But proving the adage that one man's garbage is another man's--or rather animal's--treasure the manipulative RJ tries to convince the woodland band that there is little to fear and everything to gain from their over-indulgent new neighbors. Eventually RJ and Verne form an unlikely friendship as they learn to co-exist with--and even exploit--this strange new world called suburbia.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: PG UPC: 097361176741 Manufacturer No: 117674
Amazon.com:
The manicured lawns and overstuffed garbage cans of suburbia become a buffet for woodland creatures in Over the Hedge. A self-centered raccoon named RJ (voiced by Bruce Willis, Die Hard) steals and accidentally destroys the hoard of an angry bear (Nick Nolte, 48 Hours), who gives the raccoon a week to replace it. RJ despairs--until he meets an odd gang of foragers, ranging from a turtle named Verne (Garry Shandling, The Larry Sanders Show), a father/daughter duo of opossums (the bizarre pairing of William Shatner and pop singer Avril Lavigne), a family of porcupines (with A Mighty Wind's Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara as the parents), and a hyperactive squirrel named Hammy (Steve Carell, The 40 Year Old Virgin). By convincing these friendly beasts that the suburban homesteads on the other side of a recently erected hedge are a mother-lode of cast-off food, RJ hopes to dupe them into doing his gathering. But when the suburban residents realize they've been invaded by woodland pests, an exterminator is called to take care of the problem. The overarching storyline of Over the Hedge is pure formula--your basic 'family matters more than anything' lesson--but moment to moment, the movie is delightfully crisp and clever. The animation is topnotch, the acting is excellent (other voices include those of Allison Janney, The West Wing, and Thomas Haden Church, Sideways), and the satirical jabs at consumerism are actually funny. An above-average animated movie. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - Over The Hedge
What can I say? I loved this movie when I saw it in the cinema and I still love it now it's out on DVD I prefer the full screen version because my eyesight is not great and I can see more detail with the full screen version. I'm glad most movies are still available in this format, it;s better for the bad eyesight crowd that doesn't have the money for a beter tv , blue-ray equipment and stuff like that.
Rating: - Hilarious!
I loved this movie... It's hilarious! And the plot is so intersting! I recommend it.
Rating:  - Cute Animated Film
Movie Summary:
A neighborhood is built around unsuspecting woodland animals while they hibernate. When they awake for spring, a new world awaits them. New smells, new sounds and new foods to try and of course trouble to get in.
My thoughts:
Loved the movie. I thought the story and charm ranked up there with toy story.Toy Story (10th Anniversary Edition)
Rating: - good seller
Item as described. Shipped very quickly, but accidentally shipped wrong item. Responded quickly and apologized for mistake, and did reiumburse me for shipping back the wrong video. I did finally end up with the correct video that I purchased.
Rating: - One of my favorite animated movies!!
I have to admit, I am almost 30 and I love this movie from beginning to end. Just like all animated movies, it's extremely cleverly (is that a word?) written, and is just plain fun to watch, especially with my daughter. My wife also throughly enjoys this as well.
Just a fun movie and you won't regret purchasing it.
