Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs.
One of goofiest animated movie I have ever seen. Small to humongous meatballs, burgers, macaroni and cheese falling from the skies....spiral spaghetti storm....this is the most cartoonish animated movie for me but this is one show that I have never seen and can imagine before. Very effective yet creative with a straightforward story. Inspired by Judi Barrett's children's book, it is about an inventor, Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) who builds a machine that converts water into food and becomes local hero when tasty treats fall from the sky like rain. Things went well but goes haywire when the machine spins out of control and threatens to bury the whole world with giants foods and Flint must find a way to stop it. The characters in the movie are quirky as well such as Sam Sparks (Anna Faris), a weather girl with the heart of a nerdy-girl-next-door, Tim (James Caan), the father, the scene where he tries to help his son by sending an email was hilarious and the others memorable characters as well.
The best part after watching this movie, believe me, is that you will suddenly feel hungry for food except chicken...why? you will know the answer after watching it..hehehe
"9"
This is a different ball game altogether. First and foremost, this animated movie is visually stunning. The overall storyline might not be so clearly defined and it is too scary for younger kids for it actions scenes but I truly truly love this movie...awesome...The renowned filmmaker, Tim Burton produced such a distinctively and thrilling tale. "9" stars Elijah Wood, John C. Reilly, Jennifer Connelly, Martin Landau, Christopher Plummer.
"9" is basically the story of 9 intricate, beautiful shaped and curious creatures who must dodge metal dogs, fight off a mechanized giant octopus like creatures and unlock a secret in a world where all humans are gone and the machines that roam the earth want to destroy them in the first place. Ermm...sound like the story you are familiar with? (Matrix and Wall-E combined). Each one of the nine creations has a distinct personality. "1" is bossy, opinionated and protective, "2" is a thinker and healer. "3" and "4" are twins who thrive on knowledge and study. "5" represents friendship and family. "6" is madness and secrets. "7" is agility and a warrior, "8" is strength and "1"'s bodyguard. "9".... ermm you have to figure out yourself...I would not be a spoiler for a good movie like this...
Amazing visual effect
Burlap heroes
