3/5
A really light, funny movie, with an interesting voice cast Go to Full Review
Bruce Diones The New Yorker Apr 14, 2013
The story has a loony, slapstick verve, and the star-studded voice work is uniformly entertaining. Go to Full Review
Christy Lemire Associated Press Apr 14, 2013
If Over the Hedge aims solely to entertain, it does so in a way that's mildly amusing but mostly hackneyed. If it aims to instruct, it weakens its own argument with the plethora of product tie-ins. Go to Full Review
Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand Apr 14, 2023
The story is slim and somewhat dubiously built on a confused moral but the script is snappy and the films moves with a fluid rhythm that charges up to a rollercoaster pace... Go to Full Review

3.5/4.0
Filled with enough little moments of comic wonder that I could literally sit here all day trying to share them all. Go to Full Review
Alberto Abuín Espinof Feb 12, 2020
