Bill Hader will voice Flint Lockwood, a young inventor who dreams of creating something that will improve everyone's life. Anna Faris takes on the role of Sam Sparks, a weathergirl covering the phenomenon who hides her intelligence behind a perky exterior. James Caan plays Tim Lockwood, Flint's technophobic father. Andy Samberg plays Brent, the town bully who has plagued Flint since childhood. Bruce Campbell plays Mayor Shelbourne, who figures out that Flint's invention can put the town, and more importantly himself, on the map and Mr. T plays the by-the-rules town cop Earl Devereaux.My expectations for this movie was for it to be a lame kids movie that was banking on the 3D effects. I was completely wrong. I loved the movie. It had that smart/witty humor in the script that makes animated movies just as enjoyable for the parents as it is for the kids. You really get in to the characters and their relationships. The monkey had me laughing my ass off at points. Plus - its super short. Huge bonus points on not wasting my time there.
I would definitely recommend that everyone check this one out . . . . . . . especially if you have kids. They will love it and you will too. As a co-worker of mine said "more like Cloudy With A Chance Of Awesome".
