After ten years of marriage, Jeff and Nealy Lang (Tobey Maguire and Elizabeth Banks) have an idyllic suburban home but a relationship on the skids. Complicating matters, a family of hungry raccoons ransacks their perfectly manicured backyard and Jeff becomes single-mindedly obsessed with eradicating the pests by any means necessary. Soon the relentless rodents aren’t merely uprooting the lawn, but also overturning the Langs’ entire bourgeois existence, as the man-versus-beast battle leads into an absurd mess of infidelity, extortion, organ donation and other assorted mayhem. The film also stars Laura Linney, Ray Liotta, Dennis Haysbert, and Kerry Washington.
