Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs [Blu-ray]

This is a cute twist to how a parent and child can be very different, but love each other very much. Good story, fun animations, lots of laughs!

watched this with my girl she loves this movie so automatic 5 star

the book was cool

My son and I love this movie!!

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is just a hilarious movie. I've watched this movie several times, and each time I watch it, there is something new and funny that I notice.CWACOM is about an aspiring inventor, Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader), and his attempts to live up to the legacies of the greatest inventors in history. Flint is a grown-up child whose eccentric behavior is only bested by his enthusiasm to create the greatest invention mankind has ever known.So far, his inventions have only been notorious for ending in disaster -- either personally (the spray-on shoes he applied in class, only to find out they would not come off), or for the entire town (the ratbirds that escaped and bred at an alarming rate).His pursuit of this legacy is stymied by Earl Deveraux (Mr. T), a local cop who has his eye on Flint, and is half-superhero; and his Father, Tim (James Caan), a Sardine Bait & Tackle shop owner who is losing faith in his son's ability to invent anything meaningful, and wants him to work in the tackle shop. Tim is a very strong character, one of the funniest, and he does it without trying (he delivers some of the funniest "lines" in the movie without uttering a word.)For his latest invention, Flint is working on the "Flint Lockwood Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator," or FLDSMDFR for short (pronounced FLI-dis-m'duh-fur). Once the FLDSMDFR works, water will go in the top, and the food of your choice will come out at the bottom. Flint just needs a little more power, and the town will no longer be stuck eating the sardines that the world recently declared to be "super gross."Cloudy does not have a single dull moment. If you blink, you might miss one of the most hilarous parts of the movie, but there are so many of those instances that it's hard to say when that would be. It's chock-full of sight gags, wacky sound effects, stupidly great jokes & puns, and Flint Lockwood's nerdy attempts to impress weathergirl Sam Sparks (Anna Faris) with his intelligence, humor, or his claim to have an allergy in common with her.The animation can only be described as Ren & Stimpy meets Warner Brothers, meets Muppets. You also have the hilarious Looney Tunes-esque sound effects, intentionally "lame" humor, ironic use of disaster movie cliche's (weather anchor Patrick (Al Roker) even observes that the storm is "following an unusual pattern of hitting all of the worlds major landmarks first, and then spreading across the rest of the globe,") and an awesome soundtrack by Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh to give it the 80's retro-futuristic tone. It has become one of my favorite movies of all time. It's purely entertaining from start to finish.

We watch this one over and over

Cute and hilarious. Fun for all ages.

***This is a review for the 3D Disc that plays with shutter-active glasses.***I was so happy when I got my first retail 3D movie in the mail today.This movie played perfectly with my Samsung LN46C750 LCD TV, and Samsung BD-C6900 blu-ray player and the Samsung 3D Starter Kit SSG-P2100T which has the battery operated glasses, and the Onkyo HT-S3300 3D system.I did not notice any "ghosting" as mentioned in other reviews in the Monster vs. Aline's movie which I have and did see a little.I am so happy there was a new movie to watch with my TV setup, I wish the Big TV guys would stop matching the new movies with purchase of a new TV system, like Panasonic has done with Coraline & Ice Age 3.I did not see this movie in theaters when it was out the for whoever disagrees about the new 3D technology must not own one. I was lucky to be able to upgrade because of a home robbery. This is a great new technology that I can now enjoy at home, as close as possible the the 3D movies in theaters today! I will be buying every new 3D movie that comes out or is on pre-order as soon as I can find out about it.The only "down side" I can think of about this movie, is that the menu of the Blu-ray did not have the special 3D viewing or just normal 2D view with nothing special.SPECIAL FEATURES included on this disc are:* BD Live* Open Season 3D Sneak Peek* Monster House 3D Sneak Peek* A Recipe for Success: Making of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs* Key Ingredients: The Voices of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs* 2 Extended Scenes* 2 Early Development Scenes* 5 Progression Reels with Introductions by Visual Effects Supervisor Rob Bredow* "Raining Sunshine" Music Video* Behind the Scenes of Miranda Cosgrove's "Raining Sunshine" Music VideoIt looks like it does not have the Sing-A-Long nor the Flint's Food Fight Game nor the Interactive "Splat" Button (Throw Food at the Screen While You Watch the Movie!) as are on the 2D Blu-ray Disc.

Très bon Bluray 3d en français. Merci,

La película es buena y divertida aunque ya está en casi cualquier plataforma de streaming. En BluRay 3D es una experiencia única y es su mejor versión, además de que es de las mejores en el formato. Solo recomendable para quienes todavía tienen una pantalla 3D.

2D & 3D discs. Value for money. Recommended.

Divertente proseguimento della storia!!

Très sympa comme petit film, on passe un bon moment, la 3D est très bonne (comme conseillé sur un site internet de test de films 3D "halluciner") et il passe très bien pour ma filleule de 6 ans et moi mais moins pour mon fils de 3 ans qui ne pouvait pas bien comprendre les termes "scientifiques" !! Il posait plein de questions :)Mais bon en VOST c'est quand même mieux !
