Weekend Movie Forecast: The Informant! Vs. Jennifer's Body

Move over, Morgan Spurlock: You may have thought that Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs was just a fun computer animated spin on the children's book. However, the San Francisco Chronicle's Amy Biancolli says, "In truth, 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' is a dead-serious piece of activist filmmaking. A cautionary tale about gluttony, obesity and genetically modified food, the movie transforms Judi and Ron Barrett's ink-drawn tale of edible precipitation into some kind of IMAX aversion therapy for popcorn-snarfing theater-goers. In a word: gross. If the fountain of cheese sauce doesn't get you, the blimp-size meatball will - and that's before it sprays giant foodstuffs from its butt."
