GLOW DRAW AGAIN!


Cloudy with a chance of meatballs

Howdee, my fellow friends! This is your favorite Eagleeye back on the paper again. So, this week’s movie is going to be animated, for a change. This super-awesome- hilarious-fun-packed movie by Phil Lord and Chris Miller is going to knock your socks off! Name? Here it is: Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs (sounds crazy right?)

Flint Lockwood is a genius, a zealous scientist, or so he thought himself. Every invention he invented was completely insane even though they were useful for some petty reason. For instance, when he was in school, he invented the spray-on-shoes so that there would be no more untied laces but unfortunately, they turned as hard as diamonds and you could never take them off. Other inventions include a TV on legs (which can run away in the middle of your favorite show), rat birds, a monkey thought translator, etc. He gets laughed at often but his mother, being the only person who trusted him, stood with him by his side before she died.

The town where he lives, Swallow Falls, reaches an economic crisis one day as their only source of income, a sardine cannery, is closed down, leaving only sardines for nourishment. Flint, in order to help his town, invents the ‘Flint Lockwood Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator’ (FLDSMDFR) which can turn water into food. An unexpected accident rockets the machine into the stratosphere and destroys Sardine Land, a newly opened tourist attraction. The townsfolk begin to heat up as Sardine Land was their last source of their income. Flint, while recovering from his sadness meets Sam Sparks, a weather intern, and the second living person who understands Flint (the first being his mother who is dead). As they are talking, it suddenly starts to rain food. The mayor immediately tells Flint to make it rain more food to help the community. This continues until one day the food starts to mutate into larger sizes. The world is suddenly hit with a food storm. Noodle tornado, hotdog rain, squirts of sauce, jets of macaroni, etc. Flint, determined to save his friends, makes a flying car and together with his friends, he shoots into the stratosphere to save the day where he faces as usual, difficulties.

Ask me how this movie was like and the first word I would say is: AWESOME! I’ll have to search in the dictionary for a word apt to describe this movie. The screenplay is beautifully written and does not only tear one’s stomach with laughter but also has a deeper meaning: Believe in yourself and others. Everyone’s character is skilfully well developed, except for a few. Flint’s life is portrayed expertly; starting from his inventions to his parents. This made me grow attached to him. The plot is also quite good but not excellent, I would say; it can be boring at some places.

To begin with the demerits of the plot, it can be boring at a few places; the plot is dragged in a few places which makes it long and boring but the director tries his best to describe the story by fast forwarding the movie in a few places.

On the whole, the movie is a smashing hit and is a must-see. I guarantee you that you will be rolling on your stomachs with laughter soon.

So long from yours truly Augustus Eagleeye.

Camping out from Feb to May version 2: My Mad Day...

On the darkest night of February,
twinkling stars adorned the sky,
camping down on the lane of burie,
Munching on blueberry pie.

Morning, I went to shop,
In a mall that was totally a flop,
with people scurrying here and there,
like a crowd of big, white hares.

Evening was at the Mad Hatter's tea party,
who sold delicious, brown tea.
He served them on a silver cup,
and everyone drank it in one big gulp.
