Default Cloudy with a chance of meatballs

Went to see this with my son yesterday and I would say neither of us were totally convinced. It is getting great reviews (for a non-PIXAR) animation.

I felt the premise was spread very thin and it just wasn't that funny. The reviews go on and on about the huge number of gags and this being a laugh out loud film.

Example sight gag - the entrance to his tree house is an old Portaloo and the brand name is Porta-Dump.

I split my sides...



...not.

Is it just me that has missed the point of this film?

I do actually like the animation of these films so will watch them with my daughter. Meatballs doesn't really appeal.

UP looks better.

I love animated films, especially since Pixar came along.

I just thought this one was a bit thin!
