Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 (2013) is  simply a sequel looking for a reason to exist besides making money and not finding it.  Along with having a no-account plot, this animated flick is so kooky and nonsensical it’s dumb.

Yes, the animation is splendid, but why do these movies always have to contain scatological humor?  (Wedgie-proof underwear?)  But that’s what kids like, the studios would say.  True, but trendiness is trendiness.
