After breaking out of a rehabilitation zoo, Frankie, a squirrel with all the angles, returns to his forest. He learns from his dim-witted best friend, Cody, a porcupine and street-con, that while he was in lock-up, the entire forest was picked clean by The A.C.O.R.N.S. Institute (Alternative Cosmetic Oils for Regenerative Natural Skin-care). No acorn was left behind. With winter just around the corner, it's a potentially devastating blow to all forest critters. So, Frankie has no choice but to bust into the brand new, state-of-the-art, rodent-proof A.C.O.R.N.S. Processing Plant and take back all of the acorns! Though a seemingly impossible heist, success would not only save the lives of his forest friends, but it would also give Frankie a chance to win back the love of his life, Lola, a local "show squirrel." Sadly, Lola has been burnt by too many of Frankie's false promises in the past. With the support of Frankie's old mentor, Mr. Bellwood, a wealthy badger, Frankie and Cody assemble a team of top notch "crackers" from all over the forest, including: a bat named Fly Boy, a top notch munitions expert; Raitch, a computer hacking albino snake, who never allows her lack of appendages to get in the way; Edsy a tiny "family frog," whose ability to freeze himself solid for days on end without harm is invaluable; a germophobic French rat named Liam, who can collapse his skeleton to get into any space; Chinese father-daughter pangolins named Pango and Lin, the best diggers in the forest; and Bellwood's hedgehog butler, Oscar who knows how to get his hands on anything the crew needs. With winter knocking at their door, Frankie and his crew have only three days to prepare and execute this unprecedented heist. When they learn that the processing of their forest's acorns has been pushed up a day, Lola's refusal to participate leaves Frankie and his crew one critter short. With everything on the line, Frankie and his crew of Animal Crackerz set out to pull off the biggest heist in animal history!
四名富家子為了營救其中一人被綁架勒索的妹妹,竟然合謀綁架了當地的黑道老大,將他放置在另一不知情好友父親的渡假別墅中,然后肋迫他運用黑道力量打聽到綁架的歹徒,并付出二百萬美元贖金。不料整個綁架事件竟是一個精心圈套,真相在最后才揭穿。類似本片的劇情架構在美國的獨立制片中常被采用,但本片編導仍成功地掌控了老大與富家子之間的心理角力游戲,利用“綁架案有內奸”的秘密信息引起幾個好友之間的互相猜疑,從而使后半段的發展顯得峰迥回路轉。而老大的手下和綁匪這兩組黑道搭檔則明顯有昆汀泰倫提諾式的饒舌和搞笑作風。克里斯多夫畢肯演出處變不驚的老大游刃有余,幾名富家子則由亨利湯瑪斯領軍。
一個自私自戀狂和他囊中羞澀的摯友雇傭了一名腐敗的公證人來欺騙他疏遠的兄弟。公證人在一場意外事故中死亡后,他們精心策劃的計劃就失敗了。
看起來老實忠厚的歷史教師的格倫·蘭道夫(大衛·克羅斯David Cross 飾)隨同在網上結識的女友翠茜·斯科特(朱莉婭·斯代爾斯 Julia Stiles 飾)來到朋友艾瑪(艾琳·海耶斯 Erinn Hayes 飾)和皮特(布雷斯·米勒 Blaise Miller 飾)家參加派對。進門前翠茜特別叮囑了幾條絕對不可提起的禁忌話題,但是拙于言辭的格倫尷尬之極仍不免觸雷。原本歡聲笑語的聚會因皮特和艾瑪的離婚宣言而被緊張氣氛所籠罩。雪上加霜的是,隔壁那個總穿著生化服的怪鄰居哈爾向他們通報了一則驚人消息:市中心發現放射性武器,輻射計將蔓延到他們的住地。小小的房子內,不同性格的男女,爆笑連連,卻又哭笑不得…… 本片榮獲2012年埃德蒙德國際電影節評委會大獎觀眾選擇最佳影片、2012年新奧爾良電影節觀眾獎最佳影片。
