At a young age, Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) has always wanted to invent something awesome; however, every one of his inventions fell into disaster, such as the Remote Control Television, Hair Un-Balder, The Flying Car, Rat-bird hybrids, and his Spray-On Shoes that have permanently trapped his feet in a solid sealant. He grew up misunderstood by his father, Tim (James Caan). His mother, Fran (Lauren Graham), always believed he could succeed, however she passed away 10 years before the story, leaving Flint with his father. Flint lives in Swallow Falls, a town located on an island under the "A" in Atlantic. Since the Baby Brent Sardine cannery closed down, the economy fell and left Swallow Falls with sardines as their one and only source of food. Flint, along with the assistance of his pet monkey, Steve (Neil Patrick Harris), who speaks through a thought translator, invents a machine that uses microwave radiation to mutate water into food. The machine requires a lot of electricity to work, so Flint sneaks out of his father's fishing tackle shop while he is watching Mayor Shelbourne (Bruce Campbell) and "Baby" Brent McHale (Andy Samberg) unveiling a new tourist attraction, Sardine Land. Flint goes to the power plant and hooks up the machine. The machine absorbs millions of megawatts of electricity and ends up rocketing through town and shooting up into the stratosphere, destroying Sardine Land. While sulking at the docks over his failure, he meets Samantha Sparks (Anna Faris), a weather intern for the Weather News Network in New York whose big break was foiled by Flint's actions while reporting the events about Sardine Land. The two witness purple clouds floating over the town that rain cheeseburgers, much to everyone's surprise and joy.
