Critics' reviews

"A surprisingly savory treat, though it doesn't bear much resemblance to the charming classic children's book on which it's based. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"

Claudia Puig: USA Today
"A joyful romp, devoid of the tiresome pop-culture references."

Rene Rodriguez: Miami Herald
"It’s a brisk, bright, winning effort"

Keith Phipps: AV Club
"Cloudy is smart, insightful on a host of relationship dynamics, and filled with fast-paced action."

Ernest Hardy: LA Weekly
"The sights are ingenious, impressively rendered in 3-D, and the sounds – including cheeky voice work by Mr. T, Neil Patrick Harris, and Benjamin Bratt – are a blast."

Kimberley Jones: Austin Chronicle
"It seemed to me the mountains of fudge, ice cream and pancakes overshot the mark and looked silly, (...) I've seen a lot of 3-D recently, and in terms of technical quality, this is the best. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"If the filmmakers opt to make only light statements about junk food, obesity and solid waste, they at least leave the audience sated on a single serving of inspired lunacy."

Daniel M. Gold: The New York Times
