Title: Hop
Writer: Cinco Paul & Ken Daurio
Producer: Chris Meledandri & Michele Imperato Stabile
Director: Tim Hill
Year: 2011
Plot: E.B is a drumming bunny that is next in line to become the Easter Bunny. When his father doesn’t understand his desire to be a drummer instead of an Easter Bunny, E.B leaves home for Hollywood. In Hollywood, E.B is hit by Fred O’Hare, an out of work slacker. E.B pretends to be injured and talks Fred into allowing him to stay in the house he is house-sitting. With E.B missing, his father sends out the Pink Berets to bring E.B back to Easter Island in time for the Easter Holiday. Back at Easter Island, two chicks are planning a takeover of the Easter Holiday. E.B and Fred must become friends and figure out how to take back Easter together.
Review: The movie begins with E.B as a child on Easter Island learning about the inside workings behind Easter. His father has great hopes of him taking over as Easter Bunny when he is older. However, when E.B is older he only wants to be a drummer. He ends up leaving home to be a drummer and prove to his father that he doesn’t have to be the Easter Bunny.
While E.B is in Hollywood, he makes Fred’s life even harder than normal. E.B ruins Fred’s first job interview, and then talks Fred into taking him to an audition for David Hasselhoff’s show “Hoff Knows Talent.” Hasselhoff invites E.B to be a drummer on the show. At Fred’s adopted sister’s school play, E.B jumps on stage and ruins the show. On the day of Hasselhoff’s show, E.B notices that the Pink Beret’s are close to finding him, so he stages a decoy by boiling a turkey and fooling the Pink Beret’s into thinking he has been killed. The Pink Beret’s then take Fred hostage to Easter Island to show E.B dad what has happened.
This movie is very funny. E.B does everything in his power to be a very selfish bunny and slowly ruins Fred’s life. Viewers will laugh at all of the happenings of Fred and E.B. The Easter Candy Factory is amazing. The colors and candy will have viewers craving more. At this time it is rumored that there will be sequel to Hop but it has not been confirmed at this time. If there is another movie, it will be great to see what happens to Fred and E.B in the future.
