Judi Barrett and Ron Barrett's beloved children's story comes to life in Sony Animation's feature: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. The film follows the adventures of Flint Lockwood, a young and relentless inventor who creates a machine that adds a delicious twist to his town's weather patterns. Overnight Flint's invention changes the sleepy town of Swallow Falls to a global tourist destination, eclipsing the local sardine industry and turning the weather forecasts into up-to-the-minute menus. Everything seems to be booming, but Flint's invention quickly turns delicious to dangerous as choppy weather begins to have some interesting and catastrophic effects.
