Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs

The year’s 3-D deluge included this amusingly loopy kids’ meal, about a small-town inventor who becomes famous with a machine that causes clouds to rain food. Driven by idiosyncrasies, Cloudy serves up vibrant animation in tune with its spirit of rollicking abandon; it might not have the heart of Up, but Pixar didn’t have Mr. T voicing a beefy, bounding cop. Extras are the usual behind-the-scenes documentaries.
