Anyone else see the plot twist coming? *spoilers*


Even at the start of the film, Raccoon was creepy and suspicious to me. I knew he was up to something.

It was not a twist I think... it was slowly revealed throughout.. and I am curious to the backstory of it.

Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

It was ridiculously obvious and a rip off of Rango.

Or 100 other movies. There was absolutely nothing original about this crappy film.

Films are by their nature derivative, animated films even moreso. The fact this, too, "ripped off" other movies isn't entirely surprising. And at least this had the decency to relocate Over the Hedge's story from modern suburbia to a 1970s urban setting, giving it a little bit of originality and ensuring it isn't a direct copy, though I confess it does borrow/steal shamelessly.

I mean, really, how many times will you look under Jabba's manboobs?
