This game is awesome. First off, it is based on the movie Over the hedge by Dreamworks animation. Play as RJ, Verne, Hammy, or Stella and battle rats, gophers, robot bunnies, and moles in 7 destructible environments. You can also play mini-games. There are:
RC Rally: Drive an RC car racing on a race track
Range Driver: Swing your golf clubs at all of the enemies.
and
Bumper Carts: Drive a golf cart around a course and smash into the other players. FUN!
In the missions you try and get food for RJ's wagon for Vincent. Also you rescue Heather the possum from "The Verminator". One thing I don't like is that you can't control the camera. I also don't know why this game is rated E10+ just for "violence". The weapons are fun. RJ and Verne have golf clubs. Stella has a plunger (weird), and Hammy has a boomerang. Pick up power-ups during missions to refill your health and energy bar. When your energy bar has bars filled, do your cool energy attack. Overall, this game is cool. Also, rent this game before buying it.

My son (just turned 6) rented this game from Blockbuster with a gift card. He has played it every day for a week. He really loves the characters and the action. I only gave it 4 stars because there are parts where you don't know what to do and if you can't make it through to the certain point then you start all over which requires listening to the characters talk (like part of the movie). This gets a bit tedious. It might have helped had the game included the booklet.
Anyway, I would say, overall, that it is really fun for kids.

OVER THE HEDGE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

This game rocks! Based on the movie, play as RJ, Verne, Hammy, or Stella. My favorite person is Hammy. He is HYSTERICAL!!!! One thing I like about this game are the hats. You find them through out levels like baseball caps, pots (i'm not kidding you folks),jester hats, and a geroge washington wig. I'm serious. Anyway, BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!

NOT BAD FOR A LICENSED GAME 8.25 OUT OF 10

At first I feared the worst about this game because I thought it was going to suck like most licensed games. Who the hell would figure I that I would actually have fun with this game considering my horrible reviews for games such as The Bible Game and Casper: Spirit Dimensions? It is really fun to play with a friend because of all the different missions you get to play through. There is also an overabundance of weaponry like golf clubs, snowball guns, and more. The missions, enemies, protagonists, and mini-games are a bit over the top but it's a lot of fun. There are also a ton of things you can destroy on the game which makes it already more fun. The mini-games you unlock on the way include a golf cart demolition derby, a remote controlled car race, and target practice. The issues that prevent this game from reaching truly great status are it's squirrelly camera, some timed button press sequences, some stupid enemies, and it is much better to play with a friend than by yourself. These issues are minor in comparison to the fact that it's a lot of fun to play for both kids and adults. I really enjoyed my experience with this surprisingly good game which somehow managed to get me to like and not pan it scores wise. Overall, I have no trouble recommending this game in comparison to kids games that I've panned, because of how nicely assembled it is. So if you're looking for a game for your kids this one should have no trouble keeping them entertained, take it from me, a guy who enjoys M-rated games, and if I'm somebody who usually hates kids games but somehow managed to enjoy this game, you have to figure that there is something good about this quirky game. Also worth mentioning is how good the voice acting is in this game... and it's done by imitators who sound just like the actors from the movie (it's kinda freaky how good they are).

Boo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just like most animated movie games, this game is not fun at all! Please don't even rent this game!

This is a fun game to play, especially if you're playing together with someone. If you love the movie, you will love the game. It makes you laugh and even yell at the screen.

Fun, relatively easy for a 5 yr old
