"Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs"

I'd heard Mark Kermode enthuse about it on his podcast and I'm afraid I must join him in singing its praises.

It is a thoroughly delightful and charming film and highly recommended.

Very, very different to the Dreamworks clotted confections of congealed popular culture, "Cloudy" is almost old-fashioned in a way, deriving humour from character and situation, rather than rapidly out of date references (well, except for the Internet video gag, perhaps, but that was funny.)

[livejournal.com profile] murasaki_1966 and I were absolutely charmed by it.

(and, no, we didn't see it in 3D)
