Over the Hedge and Beyond

Movie Poster

Over the Hedge, the latest animation from DreamWorks Animation is truly an enjoyable movie, although it left the audiences wanting more after only a mere 1 h 27 min of showtime. It’s witty, funny, and teaches values like family togetherness, teamwork, friendship, love and forgiveness. Plus, Hammy the Hyperactive Squirrel is SOOoooo cute, especially when he looks longingly, with the roundest, most pathetic eyes at a flying cookie, and utters, “But I like the cookie.” It’s this form of childlike candour that will melt the hearts of everyone.

Here are some cute pictures of the cast:

And quotes from the movie:
RJ the Raccoon: No, Hammy, not the cookie. I told you that cookie was garbage.
Hammy the Squirrel: But I like the cookie.

RJ: That is an S.U.V. humans ride in then because they are slowly losing their ability to walk.
Lew the Porcupine: Wow it's huge!
Hammy the Squirrel: How many people fit in there?
RJ: Normally, about one.

Hammy the Squirrel: Wanna help me look for my nuts?
RJ: As tempting as that sounds, I'll have to pass.

Movie Goofs:
RJ the Raccoon stops Verne the Tortoise from eating a diaper out of the trash, but the trash is in front of Gladys's house and Gladys doesn't have children.
By the way: Gladys is a neurotic, potential spinster who is a career woman in a black power suit. She is the main nemesis of all the forest creatures.
