Taking back the neighborhood... One snack at a time.

Rating: 6/10 (19 July 2006)

I watched ''Over the Hedge '' 2 days ago in the movie theaters and I am surprised how ordinary this movie is! The reason of my surprise, is that I saw that this movie had the box office of 34 million dollars(a LOT of money) and for so many people go to watch this movie in the cinema, I expected it to be great. But in my opinion, this film isn't a big deal and I still prefer Madagascar. Of course, it's cute, a good choice for kids and has a positive message, but the story is not so appealing to older audiences as Shrek is, for example.
I didn't laugh during the movie and the only scene I really liked, was the one where Hammy drinks an energy drink with caffeine that makes him stay super fast compared to the others, looking like the time stopped.
Ps:Avril Lavigne is Heather's voice! I watched the dubbed version (in Portuguese) so only now I know that !:P
