Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Jackson Booth-Millard I was pleasantly surprised by the first film, and it was pretty much inevitable there would be a sequel, I hoped it would be just as much fun as the predecessor. Basically Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) and his friends of Swallow Falls have just saved the world from the FLDSMDFR ("Flint Lockwood Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator"), his invention that turns raindrops into giant food, but went out of control. Chester V (Will Forte), the super-inventor and CEO of Live Corp, is tasked with cleaning up Swallow Falls, all citizens have been relocated to San Franjose, California, and he has invited Flint to work at Live Corp, where many budding inventors are trying to create the next great invention for his approval and a prize. Six months later, unbeknownst to Flint, the FLDSMDFR survived the explosion and landed back on Swallow Falls island, Chester's search parties have been attacked by monstrous cheeseburgers, many food mutated creatures are learning to swim and pose a threat if they do. Chester sends Flint on a classified mission to find and destroy the FLDSMDFR, but Flint cannot help himself and recruits his meteorologist girlfriend Sam Sparks (Anna Faris), her cameraman Manny (Benjamin Bratt), police officer Earl Devereaux (Terry Crews, replacing Mr. T), Steve the monkey (Neil Patrick Harris), who communicates with the device on his head, "Chicken" Brent McHale (Andy Samberg), and his father Tim Lockwood (James Caan) who transports them on his fishing boat. Arriving in Swallow Falls, the island has become an overgrown jungle, Tim stays behind while the rest investigate, finding a variety of living food creatures, Tim encounters humanoid pickles who bond and fish with him. Creatures include Fruit Cockatiel (veveral fruits), Hippotatomus (hippo tomatoes), Shrimpanzee (shrimp chimpanzees), Cheespider (cheeseburger spiders), Mosquitoast (mosquito toast), Bananostrich (banana ostrich), Flamango (flamingo mangoes), Watermelophant (elephant watermelons), Subwhales (whale sub sandwiches), Lemmongs (lemon lemmings), Susheep (sushi sheep), Tacodile Supreme (crocodile tacos) and many more. Chester finds out Flint is on the mission with his friends, he arrives with his assistant Barb (Kristen Schaal), a talking orangutan with human intelligence, he is determined to separate them, Flint begins to suspect that he is up to something. Inventing a device in his former lab to find the FLDSMDFR, Flint is intent on making Chester proud, despite Sam trying to convince him to spare the foodimals, she leaves in anger, along with the others, in the jungle she proves that the creatures mean no harm, but Chester and Live Corp employees ambush them. Flint finds the FLDSMDFR, but is hesitant to destroy it seeing a family of cute marshmallows, Chester seizes control of the machine and announces his plan to use the foodimals for outdated line of food bars, Flint is crushed, and pushed over, but the marshmallows rescue him. Flint, his father and other foodimals plan to infiltrate the Live Corp building under construction on the island, Flint rescues the trapped foodimals and confronts Chester who threatens to turn his friends into food bars, the real Chester is eventually exposed among his many holograms, and Barb has had a change of heart and helps Flint and his friends. Chester tries to get away with the FLDSMDFR, but is eaten by a Cheespider, the island is now safe from Chester and the destroyed Live Corp, the FLDSMDFR is returned to its place, the foodimals continue to live in peace as more are born, and Flint enjoys his first spot of fishing with his father. Also starring Cody Cameron as Barry / Dill Pickle. The voices are fine, Hader still being the incompetent but likable geek, Faris being silly, and Forte being mean, the special effects to create tasty looking living food animals are fantastic, there are many easy to laugh at daft puns ("There's a leek in my boat!") and plenty of slapstick, it isn't quite as delightful as the original, but adults and children alike will have fun, a colourful animated comedy fantasy. Good!
kennethtownsend-97230 P.S I you have not seen Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 1, don't read this review. You have been warned.Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 2. The sequel to the movie that is basically a rip off Jurassic Park II, and not decent one at that. Although I can give the movie credit, the acting was decent, the animation is good, and the screenplay is also decent, but my main complaint is the story. It was ripped straight out of Jurassic Park II. The comparisons are obvious, the story is similar, though altered slightly to fit the pervious film's canon. Although the cast has change a bit, Mr T. A.K.A Earl from the first movie has been replaced. That's really it.Now let's get to the plot, taking place right after the first movie takes place. The Island has been left in ruin after the first movie with food absolutely everywhere. The gang from the first are celebrating for beating the device(I'm not going even try to write it.) Until a new character, Chester V, A.K.A Will Forte, tells them he and his team is going to clean up all the food, while the main characters are relocated to San FranJose,(Funny Pun). We'll his crew, "Cleans up". Over all an okay movie, a not original plot, but those food/animal puns were kind of funny.
davidisgoliath38 The story isn't great, about a 6/10, but I'm giving it an 8 purely because of how beautiful the art is in this film. I'm a concept artist so backgrounds and cinematography tend to be things I notice a lot more in movies. The cinematography and set design are incredible in this film. I was blown away by how gorgeous it is. It's not just good for a kids movie, it's just good art. The color schemes and shifts from scene to scene are top notch. Some of the best I've seen of any kids cartoon movie and comparable to: Princess and The Frog, Cinderella, Nausicaa, Akira, Lupin III, Kiki's Delivery Sevice, the first Toy Story, etc. I had to keep pausing the movie just to take screenshots. Anyway, that's why I'm rating it so high.
Taylor Kingston Notice how many explication marks I used? There's a reason for that. It's because I love this movie. The main reason is because the food animals, or food-imals, are so freaking adorable that I can't even stand it and I definitely can't get over it. The strawberry. Oh my God, the strawberry. I want it. I want it to be real and be my best friend. And that is in no way sad, because if you had seen it, you would understand it and agree with me.In this episode, Flint starts working at The Live Corp Company, but they really just want him there, to find out where his food invention is. When he's sent on a mission to retrieve it, thinking they want it for another reason, he goes back to his hometown island. Live Corp makes Flint believe that they want to protect the mainland from being attacked by living food. They really want it to use it on their own food inventions, to make them taste better. We see adorable food- imals such as talking strawberries, flamangos, hippotatomuses, shrimpanzees, cheespiders, bananostrich's and watermelophants, just to name a few. I love them, I want them to be my best friends. They help make Flint and his friends realise that Live Corp is bad, and they find a way to save all the food-imals.Overall, I give this movie a 9 out of 10.
