I have the worn and tattered children's book by my side as I write this review. It was one of my all-time favorite books as a child. Some nights as I stared at the strange bubbling casserole my mom had just made, I wished I were in the land of Chewandswallow. A land where (good) food fell from the sky.In the original story of 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs,' two children are told a tall tale by their grandpa about a land where there are no food stores, a land where people wait for their next meal by holding out plates and hoping something falls on them. At breakfast time, a storm front of eggs and bacon would push across the city, lunchtime would see showers of peanut butter and jam sandwiches, and dinnertime would consist of spaghetti and meatballs falling like manna from heaven. While scuffling with the machine, Flint discovers that Tim accidentally sent him the wrong file. However, he uses his Spray-On Shoes formula to stop the machine, causing it and the giant meatball to explode, though also seemingly killing him. With the machine destroyed, the food storms subside and everyone is able to return safely to Chewandswallow. Flint is revealed to have survived the explosion by letting go of the machine and falling down the blowhole at the last second before the explosion. Tim finally shows his appreciation for his son and his inventions, and Flint and Sam celebrate with a kiss. Out at sea Mayor Shelbourne who escaped from the food storm on a sandwich boat begins to sink after eating his boat. Sony Pictures Animation (August 21, 2012).

Man, this movie is funny. It's full of clever details (If you were making snow angels in ice cream, wouldn't you make them face first?). There's colorful animation and some zany and loveable characters. I know I've spoken out about big name actors doing voice work for films, and that kids couldn't care less about it. I stand by that statement, but here even though there are some big names, they seem to be people that actually put some feeling and acting into their voices. There are no A-List stars here, but Bruce Campbell, Mr. T, Andy Samberg, Anna Faris, and James Caan all do wonderful work with the parts they're given.
