How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A candy-colored romp through absurd chaos where giant food literally falls from the sky, built on a core of earnest heart about an outsider proving himself and saving his town.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is the most underrated animated franchise of the century.

The cast? Bill Hader, Anna Faris, Andy Samberg, Bruce Campbell! Perfect!

The writers? They also wrote the Lego Movie and Into/Across the Spider-verse! Everyone loves those!

And not to get ahead of myself, but the sequel's puns? Endless!

Justice for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs!!!!!
