FAMILY MATINEE: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
June 20th (Father’s Day), 2.30pm
Devising a machine to produce "food weather" - hotdog hail, ice cream snowdrifts - seems like any child's dream solution to global hunger.
This animated comedy has a lot of super-sized fun with the premise, from a 1978 children's book by Judi and Ron Barrett, but it also takes after Pixar's Wall•E as a witty parable about excess consumption.
