The early and extended sequences are interesting looks at alternate ideas for scenes, including one of a few different opening sequences in storyboard format. The "Food Fight" game is hardly with exploring and the music video sing-a-long might impress some of the young audiences. Overall, however, the three main features are certainly robust enough to justify re-watching the film with the commentary. In August 2009, Insight Editions published a companion book to the film called The Art and Making of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. [23] [24] Reception [ edit ] Critical response [ edit ] Ernest Hardy of LA Weekly stated the film "is smart, insightful on a host of relationship dynamics, and filled with fast-paced action". Hardy also applauded the 3-D effects which "are wonderful, full of witty sight gags that play out both center-screen and on the periphery". [28] Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune gave the film a mixed review stating that "Crazy doesn't always equal funny, and the gigantism of this 3-D offering's second half puts a damper on your enjoyment. But look: This film wasn't made for you, or me. It was made for dangerously, easily distracted 9-year-olds." [29] Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave the film two stars stating that the animated film "greatly expands on the kids' book on which it's based in a clever and engaging first half. But the second half leaves a foul aftertaste." [30] Box office [ edit ]Cast members include: voices of: Anna Faris (Weather girl), Adam Samberg (Brent), Bruce Campbell (Mayor Shelbourne), Mr. T. (Cop Earl Devereaux), and James Caan (Tim). I have the worn and tattered children's book by my side as I write this review. It was one of my all-time favorite books as a child. Some nights as I stared at the strange bubbling casserole my mom had just made, I wished I were in the land of Chewandswallow. A land where (good) food fell from the sky.

It's full of clever details (If you were making snow angels in ice cream, wouldn't you make them face first?). There's colorful animation and some zany and loveable characters. I know I've spoken out about big name actors doing voice work for films, and that kids couldn't care less about it. I stand by that statement, but here even though there are some big names, they seem to be people that actually put some feeling and acting into their voices. There are no A-List stars here, but Bruce Campbell, Mr. T, Andy Samberg, Anna Faris, and James Caan all do wonderful work with the parts they're given.
