Nachdem seine neueste Kreation versehentlich das Stadtzentrum zerstört undanschließend Richtung Himmel schießt, fürchtet Flint Lockwood zunächst, dass seine Erfinderkarriere hiermit beendet sei. Doch dann geschieht das Unglaubliche: Es regnet köstliche Cheeseburger - seine Maschine funktioniert! Aber die Menschen können von den Leckereien einfach nicht genug bekommen, bis der Apparat durchdreht und gigantische Spaghetti-Tornados mit riesigen Fleischbällchen auf die Erde loslässt. Mit Hilfe der Wetterreporterin Sam Sparks und seinem Assistenten Steve, einem sprechenden Affen, muss Flint eine Möglichkeit finden, die wildgewordene Maschine abzuschalten, bevor die Welt unter den megagroßen Fleischklößen begraben wird.

Wolkig mit Aussicht auf Fleischbällchen fasziniert durch ein neuartiges Lebensmittelthema, mit dem nicht zu spaßen ist, aber es ist alles in klischeehafte Watte gepackt, die das ursprüngliche Thema etwas (zu) ersticken droht. Es ist eine Schande, dass die Filmemacher ihren Humor auf dem Boden der Tatsachen belassen haben - der Daddy (und seine Augenbrauen) und der Affe (mit seinem Fetisch für Schnurrbärte) waren amüsant, aber ich hatte trotzdem das Gefühl, dass man mehr daraus hätte machen können. Die Handlungsstränge des Films funktionierten gut, ob es nun um einen Spaghetti-Tornado, die Flucht vor einem gebrochenen Lebensmitteldamm oder die Rettung der Welt ging - manchmal erinnerte der Film an eine animierte Version eines Emmerich-Katastrophen-Blockbusters. Es ist jedoch schade um das verschenkte Potenzial.

The culinary sophistication of the first half, gently spiced with apt humor, is reliably consigned to the leftovers bin by the gluttony of the second half, which is cooked to the rhythm of the second Prehistoric.

For Somalis a provocation, for anorexics a nightmare, for the consumer society a tease and for me, after a long time, finally an animated film that is properly swinging, has an imaginative style (even if technically it lags behind its counterparts) and is brimming with ideas. Basically, and Aardman film, but without Aardman.

A really great animation film from Sony. It has an excellent and original idea about a quirky genius who invents a machine that makes food fall from the sky, and since no one in the city has eaten anything other than sardines for a long time, it becomes a huge hit. The black policeman (a humorous touch) and the crazy mayor are good, and in the end, everything turns upside down in the classic way. The animation is not breathtaking, but thanks to the idea and cool characters, it's a great thing. 8/10.

Animated films are usually made by people who have imagination and that's why people enjoy them... it's no different with Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. Great story, nice characters... so a nice fairy tale not only for kids. It is true that a little more humor wouldn’t hurt... that's why the 4 stars.

It is not exceptional, but it certainly is an above-average animated film about the fact that greed is harmful. In addition to the standard motif of parent-child relationships, about loving each other, respecting each other, and helping each other, it is a film about a consumerist world based on seemingly unrestricted consumption. The film has pace, plenty of crazy jokes, and it's original and supplemented with many references to famous films of the past. An experienced viewer will of course recognize the motif of the Death Star from Star Wars or the camera from the alien war machine from Spielberg's War of the Worlds. Overall impression: 75%. Unfortunately, the film suffers from the typical flaw of American animated blockbusters - its message must be formulated in a way that is understandable to as many people as possible. Some gags are too straightforward and there are so many jokes that the viewer is flooded with them and cannot enjoy them in certain moments...

A nice cartoon based around a crazy idea and an unbelievable amount of invention. Food falling from the sky would be a headache for the sanitation department, but it would still be great. The main character is a madman who shouldn’t be trusted even with repairing a TV and the main villain is an obese town councilman. Lord and Liller are excellent.

The strength of this animated film is in its frenzy. The mountains of gags of all kinds amused me more than in the later The LEGO Movie by the same creators, and I hardly thought about the (subtle and quite possibly actually differently intended) moralising thanks to them.
()
This animated flick is watchable to the point of madness, but the initial enthusiasm is followed by a very childish story with a bunch of family clichés. Still, to cram so many cute gags and even cuter characters into eighty minutes, I really appreciate that...

The film is quite good, what pleasantly surprised me, in particular, were several great ideas on how to use food essentially for horror scenes. The arrival of the chickens is indeed pleasantly creepy, but otherwise, it's a classic film about how one outsider strives to make it, almost messes everything up, but because they have a good heart, they manage to save what they can.
()
After a drawn out and very uninteresting opening, the whole narrative flips to a more personal level, where the best moment by far is Flint and Sam bonding and overcoming their childhood traumas together. It's certainly got a novel story and a decent momentum in its second half, but the exposition is so dull and drawn out that it ultimately falls into that sort of broader average among cartoons. [55%]
