Review of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 (2013) by Kevin R — 08 May 2014
Where did he get the brown crayon?
The town of Chewandswallow has been evacuated due to the overgrowth of food and a group of scientists has offered to clean the town so the people of the village can return. Flint, inventor of the food machine that got Chewandswallow in trouble to begin with, now works for the company cleaning up the mess. They send him on a secret mission, but will the mission improve things or make matters worse?
"You gotta a little someone stuck to your pants.".
Cody Cameron (Open Season 3) and Kris Pearn collaborate to deliver Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. The storyline and premise for this movie are absolutely horrible and an obvious Jurassic Park knockoff. However, the animation is the best I have ever seen. The voices are okay, but the plot and writing is just so below par.
"Food with legs is much harder to catch.".
The original book was my all time favorite story as a kid. I pretty much continue to watch these movies based on the original book's greatness. I will say I loved all of the creatures and the way everything pops off the screens, even in 2D. The animation style is truly the best I have ever seen, but that is all this film has going for it.
"There's no such thing as little science, just little scientists.".
Grade: C+.
