🎬 The Nut Job (2014) Join the nutty antics in The Nut Job, a fun, action-packed animated comedy directed by Peter Lepeniotis. The film follows Surly (voiced by Will Arnett), a mischievous, self-centered squirrel living in the bustling city park who is always on the lookout for his next big heist. After one too many selfish stunts, Surly is banished from the park community, finding himself alone and hungry in the urban jungle.

In his search for food, Surly stumbles upon Maury’s Nut Store, a seemingly perfect solution to his hunger troubles. However, he soon discovers he’s not the only one interested in the trove of nuts. Determined to claim the prize, he enlists the help of his rat sidekick, Buddy, and reluctantly teams up with some of his former park neighbors, including the kind-hearted Andie (Katherine Heigl) and the enthusiastic Grayson (Brendan Fraser). But their plan becomes even more complicated when they realize that the nut store is actually a front for a group of bank robbers plotting their own heist.

Packed with slapstick comedy, clever twists, and exhilarating chase scenes, The Nut Job provides plenty of laughs while delivering a story about teamwork, redemption, and finding a place to belong. Surly’s journey from a lone troublemaker to a reluctant hero shows that even the most unlikely characters can step up and make a difference when it matters most.

With vibrant animation, a lively soundtrack, and memorable characters, The Nut Job is an entertaining romp for audiences of all ages. It captures the spirit of adventure and highlights the power of friendship, proving that sometimes, to get what you really want, you have to work together—even if you’re a squirrel with a one-track mind for nuts!
