Furry Vengeance (2010)

When ambitious real estate developer Dan Sanders sets his sights on transforming a pristine Oregon forest into a soulless housing subdivision, he unleashes an unexpected force of nature. A determined band of woodland creatures, led by a resourceful raccoon, mobilizes to exact revenge on the man threatening their home. This mischievous troop throws a series of increasingly elaborate and hilarious obstacles in Sanders' path, from sabotaging his projects to staging elaborate pranks, all in an effort to drive him out of their beloved territory. The question becomes: just how much furry vengeance can the businessman endure before he's forced to call it quits? "Furry Vengeance" earns its place on a list of Roger Kumble's best films for its signature blend of slapstick comedy and surprisingly sharp social commentary, delivered with Kumble's characteristic irreverent wit. While the premise might seem lighthearted, Kumble masterfully uses the anthropomorphic animal antics to underscore a critique of unchecked corporate greed and environmental destruction. He injects a delightful absurdity into the narrative, with visually creative gags and a strong comedic performance from Brendan Fraser. Like many of Kumble's most memorable works, "Furry Vengeance" manages to be genuinely funny while also leaving the audience with a broader, albeit humorous, message about the consequences of our actions on the natural world.
