Synopsis: RJ the Raccoon (Bruce Willis) has a problem. Having been caught rummaging through Vincent the Bear (Nick Nolte)'s huge stockpile of junk food, RJ has been able to bargain for his life only by promising to replenish Vincent's stash in a week. It seems like a near-impossible task until the arrival of a terrifyingly alien new presence: the suburbs. Verne the Turtle (Garry Shandling), the cautious and overprotective leader of the forest dwellers, nervously ventures into suburbs and comes back to report that none of them should ever go "over the hedge" again. The greedy and desperate RJ, however, has different ideas, and he "recruits" (that is, tricks) the other animals of the forest into accompanying him back to the 'burbs to take advantage of this junk food paradise. Despite Verne's opposition, RJ even convinces the other animals to break into a house and raid the pantry there. But when Gladys (Allison Janney), the president of the homeowners' association, gets wind of the incursion, she puts Dwayne (Thomas Haden Church) -- a.k.a. "The Verminator -- on the case, making the animals' mission, and the question of their leadership, even shakier than ever. This animated film also stars Steve Carell as the voice of Sammy the Squirrel, Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara as Lew the Porcupine and Penny the Porcupine, William Shatner as Ozzie the Possum and Avril Lavigne as Ozzie's daughter Heather.
