still feel the same way about the pacing and the general frow of the film though ...

i wish i could articulate better how something work - fit - feel natural in some movies where in others they feel forced - ripped off - desperate.

to use shrek as an example .there were in jokes for the adults - but it enhanced the story - like an afterthought ..it wasnt what the movie RELIED on for humor (i.e madagascar)

there's a subtle difference ....

a kids movie should be paced like any other movie ..let it build to the highs ..dont try to maintain the high for 100% of the film ...
I agree, I think the fact that CGI has become so accessible is hurting animated film. Now it's so cheap it doesn't have to be a good movie to get the greenlight. As for Over the Hedge, it's a Sunday comic strip that's sometimes funny but I never really got into it.
