It is the sequel to 2009 's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, which was loosely based on Judi and Ron Barrett 's book of the same name. It was directed by Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn, produced by Pam Marsden and Kirk Bodyfelt, and executive produced by the directors of the first film, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The film was released on September 27, 2013. The film grossed over $274 million worldwide against its budget of $78 million. The screenplay was written by John Francis Daley, Jonathan Goldstein, and Erica Rivinoja, and it is based on an original story idea, not on that of Pickles to Pittsburgh, the Barretts ' follow - up book. It continues right after the first film, in which Flint 's food - making machine gets out of control, but Flint manages to stop it with the help of his friends. In the sequel, Flint and his friends are forced to leave their home town, but when the food machine reawakens -- this time producing sentient food beasts -- they must return to save the world. Most of the main cast reprised their roles : Bill Hader as Flint Lockwood, Anna Faris as Sam Sparks, James Caan as Tim Lockwood, Andy Samberg as Brent McHale, Neil Patrick Harris as Steve, and Benjamin Bratt as Manny. Will Forte, who voiced Joseph Towne in the first film, voices Chester V in this one. New cast includes Kristen Schaal as orangutan Barb and Terry Crews as Officer Earl, replacing Mr. T in the role.

Super-inventor Chester V, the CEO of Live Corp and Flint 's childhood idol, offers his company 's services to clean the island and helps to relocate the population to nearby San Franjose, California. Chester also invites Flint to work at Live Corp. Six months later, Chester shows Flint that the island is flourishing with sentient food created by the FLDSMDFR in the form of `` foodimals '', and that some are trying to swim from the island, potentially threatening the world. Chester tells Flint he needs to travel to the island, find the FLDSMDFR, and insert a special USB device into it to destroy it to end the threat. Though the mission is meant to be classified, Flint invites his friends to help : his girlfriend, meteorologist Sam Sparks ; her cameraman Manny ; police officer Earl Devereaux ; Steve, his pet monkey who communicates via a device on his chest ; and `` Chicken '' Brent. He also grudgingly accepts the help of Tim, his father, who takes them to the island by his fishing boat. When Chester learns that Flint is not alone, he and his assistant Barb, a super-intelligent orangutan, soon follow along with several Live Corp employees. While Tim stays with the boat, Flint and his friends work their way through the jungle - like environment that now covers Swallow Falls and encounter the numerous forms of foodimals, including a strawberry they call `` Barry ''. Chester arrives shortly, offering to help Flint. Sam becomes suspicious of Chester 's motives, as his claim that the foodimals are dangerous does not align with what they have observed already. Flint refuses to accept Sam 's statement, and she and the rest of Flint 's friends leave on their own, eventually getting captured by the Live Corp employees. Flint, Barb and Chester track down and locate the FLDSMDFR. As Flint is about to insert the USB device, he recognizes that it is acting as a brain to all the foodimals on the island, and it is not dangerous to them in any way. He refuses to use the USB device, but Chester forces his hand, and with the device, is able to seize control of the FLDSMDFR. Chester announces his plan to use it to create more foodimals, and with those and the ones being captured on the island as they speak, he will make food bars out of them. Chester knocks Flint into a river, where he washes out and reunites with Tim. Without the FLDSMDFR, he and his father find the foodimals on the island are dying, and Flint vows to get it back with the help of Barry. Tim helps Flint and Barry sneak into the Live Corp base. As Barry frees the foodimals, Flint challenges Chester to turn over the FLDSMDFR, but Chester threatens to use his friends in his food bar processing machine. Flint is able to use his inventions to beat Chester and free his friends, along with Barb 's help after Chester shows how little respect he has for her. Chester tries to escape but is eaten by a cheeseburger spider. Flint recovers the FLDSMDFR, restores it to normal, and returns it to where they found it, allowing the foodimals to flourish naturally. He and his friends, including Barry and Barb, return home, and Flint reconciles with Tim, who lets him try out fishing for the first time. In a mid-credits scene, Barb is trying to ask Steve on a date while he is distracted by a banana sandwich.

Reception Critical response On review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 71 %, based on 119 reviews, with an average rating of 6.4 / 10. The site 's consensus reads : `` While not as clever or inventive as its predecessor, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 compensates with enough dazzling visuals to keep younger viewers entertained. '' Another aggregator, Metacritic, gave the film a score of 59 out of 100, based on 31 critics, indicating `` mixed or average reviews ''. Michael Rechtshaffen of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review, saying `` While not as delightfully breezy as the original, an engaging voice cast and hordes of ' Foodimals ' still manage to serve up a tasty sequel. '' Linda Barnard of the Toronto Star gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` At its heart, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 is fun, even if it is occasionally so chaotic it tramples the movie 's flow like a herd of stampeding Buffaloafs. '' Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` The movie is better in every respect than the original Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. It 's also more fun than all three Ice Ages ; Monsters University ; Planes ; Epic ; Despicable Me 2 ; and though I could go on, I wo n't. '' Jordan Hoffman of the New York Daily News gave the film four out of five stars, saying `` Cloudy 2 is loud, weird and chaotic -- just as kids like it. There 's plenty of screaming and running while arms flail about, and even the obligatory message bit is given a healthy dose of ' yeah, yeah, yeah. ' Your car ride back from the theater wo n't be a quiet one, but sometimes it 's good to have a sugary treat. '' Dave McGinn of The Globe and Mail gave the film two out of four stars, saying `` Unfortunately, the film promises more fun and laughs than it delivers, and this meal tastes like too many that have gone before it. '' Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic gave the film four out of five stars, saying `` It 's the rare ( sequel ) that takes the spirit of the original and runs with it, coming up with something uniquely good in its own right. '' Tim Robey of The Daily Telegraph gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` For all its properly surreal mayhem, this flick is n't quite as nimble or emotionally rounded as its predecessor. '' Sean O'Connell of The Washington Post gave the film one and a half stars out of four, saying `` Kids will chuckle, for sure. But parents who were pleasantly surprised by the original film 's intelligence will miss Lord and Miller 's guiding hands, as what once felt so funny now leaves a stale taste. '' Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave the film one out of four stars, saying `` Whelk, I hope the makers of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs earned a nice celery, but I 'm afraid they made a hash of things. A hash seasoned with oy sauce. '' Rafer Guzman of Newsday gave the film one and a half stars out of four, saying `` Mostly, Cloudy 2 relies on the usual noxious recipe for junky kid flicks : loud noise, pop music and poop jokes. '' Miriam Bale of The New York Times gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` At times it felt as if this film might challenge Pixar 's decade - long reign, but that promise wanes. Instead, the movie is sometimes so strange, colorful and wildly cute that it may end up becoming a Yellow Submarine for a new generation. '' Tom Russo of The Boston Globe gave the film two out of four stars, saying `` It 's another brightly rendered effort, but, as the title indicates, a lot of the real creativity seems to have been used up the first time around. '' Mike Clark of USA Today gave the film two and a half stars out of four, saying `` There 's not a surprise or moment of tension to be found here, but the film is all energy and color that makes the discomfort of 3 - D glasses seem worth it. '' Jocelyn Noveck of the Associated Press gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` Your enjoyment will probably depend on your tolerance of those countless food - based puns dreamed up by script writers Erica Rivinoja, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein. Some might find these tiresome, but let 's just note here that this is a kid movie, and KIDS LOVE PUNS. So they laugh at ' There 's a leek in the boat. ' And they laugh even more the second time. '' A.A. Dowd of The A.V. Club gave the film a C, saying `` Like too many sequels, this second helping of Meatballs confuses bigger for better, piling on the action but misplacing much of the original 's charm. '' David Hiltbrand of The Philadelphia Inquirer gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` This scrumptious sequel follows the same recipe as the 2009 original. '' Peter Hartlaub of the San Francisco Chronicle gave the film two out of four stars, saying `` Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 is a humorous yet unfocused romp, so unwilling to settle on a single theme that hyperactivity medication should be handed out with the 3 - D glasses. '' Matt Patches of Film.com gave the film 7.1 out of 10, saying `` The 2009 original separated itself from the Pixar and Dreamworks competition with a joke - first approach. The sequel quadruples the recipe, with gags on top of gags on top of gags in a way only animation could achieve. Like a foodie Jurassic Park conjured up by Tex Avery, Cloudy 2 is a sight to behold... as long as your brain has n't turned to mush by the halfway point. '' Amy Nicholson of The Village Voice gave the film a positive review, saying `` The Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs franchise takes its comic cues from The Muppets and Pee Wee 's Playhouse, kids ' shows that ripen as their audience matures. '' Keith Staskiewicz of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a B, saying `` While no one was exactly crying out for second helpings of this animated meat - eorology franchise, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 is charming enough on its own not to feel like just reheated leftovers. '' Steve Davis of The Austin Chronicle gave the film two out of five stars, saying `` For both kids and adults, CWCM2 is little more than a vague memory as soon as it 's over. '' Peter Debruge of Variety gave the film a positive review, saying `` What Erica Rivinoja, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein 's script lacks in lingering nutritional value, it compensates for with amusing food puns. If nothing else, the pic 's zany tone and manic pace are good for a quick - hit sugar high. '' Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times gave the film three and a half stars out of five, saying `` Honestly, anyone who can pull off a running joke about leeks that does not make you gag, and is in fact a silly delight, deserves props. '' Bill Zwecker of the Chicago Sun - Times gave the film three out of four stars, saying `` Unlike so many sequels, this fun - filled 3D adventure is sure to entertain younger kids but also charm the adults who will be accompanying them to the multiplexes.
