Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: Revenge of the Leftovers
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: Revenge of the Leftovers
Flint Lockwood: My name is Flint Lockwood. My whole life I wanted to be a great inventor. Just like my hero.
There’s a saying that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. And Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: Revenge of the Leftovers proves that in spades. The basic problem with the film is that the central conflict — nerdy scientist Flint Lockwood seeks approval from a father figure — is exactly the same as in the original film. Only the father figure has changed.

Hotel Transylvania
Hotel Transylvania (2012) starring Adam Sandler, Selina Gomez, Andy Samberg, Kevin James
Hotel Transylvania aims at a juvenile audience. Complete with the fart jokes and low humor that we’ve come to expect from Adam Sandler. And that’s a real pity. It’s actually a much better film than that.

Walt Disney’s Aladdin
Walt Disney’s Aladdin (1992), starring Scott Weinger, Linda Larkin, Robin Williams, Jonathan Freeman, Gilbert Gottfried
“A diamond … in the rough“. In short, Walt Disney’s Aladdin can be summarized in that one sentence. It’s the story of a poor young man, Aladdin (Scott Weinger). He’s a street rat, who knows that he can be more. He lives by his wits on the streets. He commits petty larceny to eat. With the help of his only friend, the monkey Abu. But who’s still soft-hearted enough to give away his purloined meal to younger children, even hungrier than he is.

The Croods
Frankly, I found the first hour of The Croods (2013) to be cliched, and formulaic. And it wasn’t until the final third of the movie that I began to enjoy it. But when I got to that point, it was well worth watching.
