Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs (2009) 8/10

Starring : Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Andy Samberg, Bruce Campbell
Director : Phil Lord & Chris Miller
Running Time : 91 mins

Failed scientist and inventor Flint Lockwood (Hader) finally invents something that works – a machine that can turn water into food, thus solving the food shortage situation on the island on which he lives. Unfortunately the machine starts mutating the food, making larger and larger portions which begin to inundate the world with too much food.

I really enjoyed this movie, which has apparently been about as faithful to the book it’s based on as a movie can get. The voice actors are all wonderful, with Hader and Faris making the perfect cartoon couple, and the supporting cast really flesh this out into a thoroughly enjoyable kids cartoon that parents will enjoy as well.
