Story:


The bizarre animated hit from 2009 in which food rained from the sky as the edible apocalypse approached played out like the kind of kids' movie David Lynch would have made had he not been so busy fooling around with the animated segments of Eraserhead.
While this follow-up may lack the "WTF?!" head-scramble of its predecessor, it still gets a surprising amount of mileage out of the invention of "foodimals" – food/animal hybrids that roam the hallucinogenic landscape like the inhabitants of a snack-based Jurassic Park. Never smile at a Taco-dile! Don't step on that Apple Pie-thon! Keep out of the way of the Hippotato! If you don't find those puns funny, then there's nothing for you here – certainly not in terms of coherent narrative. But for anyone wishing to tickle the tummy-buns of a Double Bacon Cheespider, there's a menagerie of colourful mutants to distract your attention from the absence of anything more substantial.

Summary:

An animation movie for kids and for all young-at-heart. If you like word-plays and you dont take the movie too serious you will have much fun during the show. A film dont have to be always full of action and fast cuts, much blood and many explosions, sometimes you get the right relexation in a cartoon-movie, so my suggestion is.....
