~My Reveiw of cloudy with a chance of meatballs~
When I was young(er) I absolutely adored this book. Was one my Favorites. I know I had to have read it 100 times. And When I heard it was being made into a movie, I was ecstatic that one of my favorite childhood books was coming to life on the big screen with a full-blown plot, characters, and animated comedy to boot! I was looking forward to seeing it...
~Plot~
Yay! I was happy that the plot was more complicated then It was in the book.. Of course, thats expected.. and necessary. It was pretty well developed for me (considering it WAS a PG [or G?] movie).
~Funnies/Jokes~
It was funny, and I was surprised to find that the movie featured more jokes that my particular age group (say...11-18?) would get, rather than the usual joke my mom and grandma would get hidden into the movie. This sure was a plus for me, but not for my grandma.
~Overall~
I thought that this movie was very cute, and one of the top-5 animated comidies. (My local paper raved that it was THEE best of the year, Giving it 3 1/2 stars out of 4. It was good, but not amazingly outstanding) If I had to stick a number on it, it would be 2.5/4.
