Much of what makes Over the Hedge compelling — the family, the comedy — shows up in The Simpsons Movie (2007) in a slightly different form. Both films understand that funny storytelling works best when it trusts the audience.

The family energy of Over the Hedge is alive in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977), filtered through a different story but the same emotional register. It earns its place on this list with a uplifting payoff that rivals the original pick.
