The odd are about to get even.
In Sony Pictures Animation's first feature film, the animated action adventure comedy Open Season, the odd are about to get even.
Boog (Martin Lawrence), a domesticated grizzly bear with no survival skills, has his perfect world turned upside down when he meets Elliot (Ashton Kutcher), a scrawny, fast-talking mule deer. When Elliot convinces Boog to leave his cushy home in a park ranger's garage to try a taste of the great outdoors, things quickly spiral out of control.
Relocated to the forest with open season only three days away, Boog and Elliot must acclimate in a hurry. They must join forces to unite the woodland creatures and take the forest back!
Boog (Martin Lawrence) is living the perfect life. In the tranquil town of Timberline, the genial grizzly bear enjoys all manner of creature comforts, courtesy of his surrogate mother, Beth (Debra Messing), the kindhearted forest ranger who rescued him as a cub. Boog relishes the perks of fame as the star of Beth's nature shows in the town's amphitheatre; and in Beth's converted garage, Boog watches his favorite tv shows, eats eight square meals a day and nestles in a comfy bed each night with his teddy bear, Dinkelman. Yes, Boog seems to have the perfect life -- until Elliot appears.
Elliot (Ashton Kutcher) is a scrawny, fast-talking mule deer who arrives in town unconscious, missing an antler and strapped to the hood of a truck belonging to fanatical hunter Shaw (Gary Sinise). When Elliot awakes, he begs Boog to untie him. Boog finds Elliot's rapid fire pleas hard to ignore, and he releases the hapless mule deer. However, as if to prove that no good deed goes unpunished -- Elliot tracks Boog down to his home and lures him out for a crazy night on the town -- a bender which results in both of them being relocated to the forest.
Boog awakens in the wilderness, panicked to find himself far from the comforts of home. When Elliot promises to help Boog find his way back to Timberline in exchange for space in Boog's cushy digs, the bewildered bear with no survival skills has no choice but to agree to the unlikely partnership. With open season upon them, Boog and Elliot must first work together merely to survive. The odd couple embarks on a hilarious journey, enlisting the aid of some helping hands -- er, paws -- along the way as they join forces with the denizens of the forest to turn the tables on the hunters, and once again make the forest safe for its four-legged inhabitants.
Sony Pictures Animation's debut feature-length CG-animated film Open Season, the highly-anticipated family comedy action adventure, assembles a top cast of voice talent, including Martin Lawrence, Ashton Kutcher, Gary Sinise, Debra Messing, Billy Connolly, Jon Favreau, Patrick Warburton, Gordon Tootoosis, Jane Krakowski and Georgia Engel.
