Saving animal-kind - Over the Hedge Reviews

I took my 4yr. old to see this movie. She like the funny little animals and the music by Ben Folds. I, on the other hand, like the storyline and most of the jokes; there's one about Dr. Phil in one of the scenes. RJ, the raccoon; voice by Bruce Willis, steals a bundle of food from a bear name Vince; voice by Nick Notle. RJ promises Vince that he could replace all the food by the next full moon. So off he goes with a shopping list (it would have been funny if the shopping list was made from a Wal-mart ad) and comes to a new neighborhood. There RJ mets a group of other woodland animals that have been sleeping through the winter. He gets the idea that he could use them to gather up food to bring back to Vince. RJ explains the new environment of homes and the concept of savaging from them. There are different action scenes that take place (my favorite is the red wagon and the dog). Towards the end of the film, RJ has a change of heart and come to the aid of his new family. "Over the Hedge" is a good-clean, family film.
