Over The Hedge

Heres my review:

Oh dear oh dear, animated films arent doing well lately. This is what Ice Age 2would`ve been without Scrat. The jokes seem to be more aimed at kids, its all very Tom & Jerry. There was probably about 5 very funny LOL lines (although the very funny bits where very funny)

There`s an impressive cast, Bruce Willis is very good, Avril Lavigne was good & her voice was really sweet. Nick Nolte as a grumpy bear is a perfect choice & whoever was the turtle was good. Then there`s a hyper squirrel played by the 40 yr old virgin & no matter how much they try he just isnt scrat. He is funny, but not as funny as the makers think he is. Plus William Shatner who just wasnt funny, he`s like a one joke pony (for good Shatner jokes see Family Guy).
Its certainly not Shrek (1 or 2) or Ice Age. Dissapointing. Mind you i didnt find The Incredibles good either........
5/10

Who else seen this?

You say pyscho like its a bad thing

Haven`t seen it but my 10 year old went with his mates the other day (mainly because they got the date for Pirates of the Carribean wrong).
Verdict: Boring

Described the plot in that, droning, bored, condescending voice that only ten year olds can do.

and yes the Incredibles was ..............incredibly good. (10 year old agrees)

It was good, albeit not the film I expected. It veers away from too many adult in-jokes, and the pop culture references were few and far between (thank god) but I just didn`t enjoy it that much. Saying that, everyone else I was with did, so I`m not going to write it off just becase I didn`t like it.

And the Incredibles is a far better movie, just for the record. ;)

Oh, and I concur, 555 knows nothing!




Giggity giggity!

It sooo boring when you lot say i have no idea. Its my idea, MINE! and its right...... for me!
I know im different, its more fun that way. Its boring all being the same.

Im not alone on the incredibles, my mum didnt like it either :P
I rarely seem to like Disney/Pixar movies though, dont know why. Incredibles, Nemo, Monsters Inc, i didn`t find any of them as funny as all the critics/reviews made out to be.

Indeed, thought this was very good indeed ( got it on my psp). Annie laughed her socks off. So much better than Shrek, i just wish they´d lay off concentrating on the stars for plugging the movie
