A movie with substance and hilarious to bootwhat a concept!!!

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2006)

Beautiful, honest characters and dialog. Loved RJ, the rascally mastermind, and Vern, the cautious, but brave head of the "family." Both are strong characters and balance the story very well. Each member of this family contributes something uniqueand truly funny. Lots of great sight gags, too!
Talk about multiple levels of humor for both kids and adults: Wait 'til you see Gladysthe homeowner association pres from 'elland her lifestyle. And let's not forget (intonation here) the VERMINATOR...
Even when poking fun at human behavior, the story and characters are never mean. The movie makes you laugh...Makes you think...Makes you laugh again! Very satisfying experience.
OkayI'm not giving any more away here. And yes, I'm going to go see it again. What can I say? I loved it.
Go see Over the Hedge. Your kids will love it and YOU will howl!!!
