My Antidote to the now tired Pizar films.

Really wish I had seen this in 3D, but am still really glad that I watched it. It's still an excellent movie without the 3D. In a time where Pixar and such people dominate animated film, it's good to see some are still upholding traditional methods. The Pixar movies aren't bad, but I'm getting tired of them. I'd just rather watch something that is the real definition of a "cartoon". All that aside.... I really enjoyed this movie. It's been awhile since I enjoyed a new animated film this much. Highly recommended.

see in 3D

I unfortunately saw this movie in old school 2-D, and as I was watching I found myself thinking wow I bet that looked really cool in 3-D. Still even seeing it that way it was still an extremely enjoyable film. The pure food eye-candy is enough to give Julie and Julia a run for its money. If you like looking at food this is your Citizen Kane.
there is a scene near the end that I've no wish to ruin, but it involves a monkey and Gummi Bears, worth the price of admission alone, nuff said
great movie see it with your kids or without them, either way you'll enjoy this one.
My one criticism is that there simply weren't enough meatballs.

A Very Filling Movie!

Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs is the story of Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) an inventor who has yet to invent a successful invention. All this changes when his invention that goes haywire at a big event in the island town of Chew and Swallow causes it to rain any kind of food that a person could think of. This also brings weather girl Sam Sparks (Anna Farris) to Chew and Swallow to cover the raining food. We also are treated to great voice performances from the following people: James Caan as the father and voice reason to Flint, Mr. T as the town’s only policeman and Bruce Campbell in an hilarious role as the town’s mayor. As the food begins to fall the story becomes a tiny bit predictable but the writing is brilliant with lots of bits that tie up nicely by the end of the film and the ...
