Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2

Opens Friday, Sep 27, 2013 Synopsis: Picking up precisely where its hit predecessor left off Sony Pictures Animation's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 finds Flint Lockwood (voice of Bill Hader) invited to join The Live Corp Company, and use his gift for invention for the good of mankind. Just as young Flint prepares to go to work for his hero Chester V (voice of Will Forte), however, the young genius learns that his water-to-food machine is not only still functional, but it's also began cross-breeding animals with food. Now, in order to prevent a growing army of "foodimals" from escaping isolation on an island and wrecking havoc on the mainland, Flint and his loyal group of friends will have to do battle with such delicious, but deadly, hybrids as the ferocious tacodiles, slithering apple pie-thons, and vine-swinging shrimpanzees. Saving the world from these rampaging monstrosities won't be easy, but if anyone is up to the task, it's Flint and company. Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn takes the reins for this sequel also featuring vocal contributions by Anna Faris, James Caan, Kristen Schaal, Tery Crews, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris and Benjamin Bratt. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Will Forte, Kristen Schaal, Terry Crews, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris, Benjamin Bratt Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review

The Smurfs 2

Opens Wednesday, Jul 31, 2013 Synopsis: Gargamel is back, and this time he's sending the Smurfs on a wild adventure through Paris in this globe-trotting sequel to the 2011 hit. Determined to harness the magical essence of the Smurfs, wicked wizard Gargamel (voice of Hank Azaria) creates a diminutive race of mischief makers known as the Naughties. But in order to get the results he's looking for, Gargamel will need to get his hands on a genuine Smurf. Enter Smurfette (voice of Katy Perry), the only one of her kind who knows the spell that can transform Naughties into actual Smurfs. Having recently shot to fame in Paris due to his impressive magical powers, Gargamel kidnaps Smurfette, and sweeps her away to the City of Light. With Papa Smurf (voice of Jonathan Winters) and company hot on his trail, however, the scheming wizard quickly realizes that executing his diabolical plan will be easier said than done. Meanwhile, Smurfette's growing sense of insecurity leaves her vulnerable to the scheming of Naughties Vexy (voice of Christina Ricci) and Hackus (voice of J.B. Smoove). Neil Patrick Harris and Jayma Mays also lend their voices. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Neil Patrick Harris, Brendan Gleeson, Jayma Mays, SofĂ­a Vergara, Hank Azaria, Katy Perry, Jonathan Winters Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
