Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 Review

A contender for best animated film of the year, this delightfully bonkers follow-up to the 2009 sleeper hit sees inventor Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) and his gang head back to their island home to find it full of strange animal/food hybrids. Meet wild scallions, hippotatoes and shrimpanzees in a film that takes glee in finding ever-more outrageous puns. While the animation design is sometimes a little too stylised, children will love the frenetic colour, adorable animals — and vegetables — and talking monkey. Adults will fall for the inspired silliness and secretly sincere message about loyalty at its heart.
