OVER THE HEDGE

It was to hot yesterday to take the kids to the park, we noticed two kids movies were playing at the $2 movies. We decide to go see "OVER THE HEDGE". It was a great family movie; the kids laugh though the whole thing. Stephanie couldn't take her eyes off the screen. We had a good time, and plan on going back next weekend to see "THE WILD".

Just below is a review about “OVER THE HEDGE”:




Just whose backyard is it, anyway? Spring has sprung, and Verne and his woodland friends awaken from their long winter's nap to discover that a large, green hedge has cropped up right through the middle of their once-natural habitat. 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. "For humans," RJ proclaims, "enough is never enough." Suspicious and even a little jealous of the charismatic smooth-talking 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 has his own reasons for convincing 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 and their furry friends learn to coexist with--and even exploit--this strange new world called suburbia.
