Don't be put off by the beginning like I was. It's only by luck that I decided to watch the rest of the film. It seems very childish and popy at first but stay with it. The story is about raccoons trying to save their forest from urban development. Its very advanced for something that's supposed to be a children's story, you can even see the raccoon's men's bits sometimes but not graphically. Got to go being dragged away but will continue.
Continuing, I've forgotten the theme music now. I wish I could have finished this sooner. The characters in their semi human form are so cute an the nature of raccoons they show is really sweet. The film doesn't avoid showing more uncompromising themes though, you still see the consequences of their actions despite how cutesy and fuzzy it is. Being distracted earlier really threw me off. I'd love to say more but can't right now. I had to go for a drive which didn't go very well and they go out for an hour, then have dinner and in the end I'm not in anything like the frame of mind when I first saw it.
It's a really sweet but not totally kitch film that you should watch despite the fact that the beginning makes it look like a children's movie, get past that and it isn't. There's a lot to the story and it takes you through the highs and lows.
