SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water Review: Nothing makes any sense in this movie. But it manages to be funny because it's so absurd. This movie is stupid, but it knows that it's stupid. They time travel, there's a dolphin named Billy that has a rap number at the end, it becomes a live-action superhero movie at some point, and when the Krabby Patty formula gets lost it turns into mad max all of the sudden. There's a point where a movie gets so absurd, that it becomes funny.
This movie was made for younger audiences but the reason so many people love SpongeBob is that it appealed to the older audiences. I would give a 5-star rating but after the part, they went out of the water the movie becomes a cash in on toys and other merchandise. I would go into more detail about why people love SpongeBob and why people didn't like this movie but honestly, I loved this movie all except the part when they became superheroes..... why did they make that part so unwatchable? They could've at least made it enjoyable
I have always loved SpongeBob, and I probably always will. And this movie just makes me love the series even more!! It is much better than the original SpongeBob movie, but please take into consideration, it does, in fact, take 1 hour for them to come out if the water, and when they do, they are only out of it for like 30 minutes, at max. So please keep that in mind when watching this movie for the first time.
The difference between the opinions of the fans and regular moviegoers is quite different when going to see a treat that was made for fans while offering some qualities to a regular moviegoing experience. This film fits in both bases, but the receptions vary between the two. However, there's always something for someone to enjoy from what the movie offers besides enjoying the reaction of your kid(s) or the person next to you definitely enjoy the film. Although in this kind of film, there are references and cues from the past episodes (like the first film at a probable equal amount) that the fans would realize more than those who don't watch the show. Overall, like I said before, "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water" is something for everyone to enjoy.
It may be SpongeBob's second feature, but it's not a sequel to his previous feature back in 2004. When his first film, "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie," was being made, it was set as the series finale to end the series on the big screen than on television. As of today, the series already ended 11 years ago; the new movie and the 4th-10th seasons are placed as a huge prequel setting taking place between the 3rd season and the first movie.
It's a typical time underwater in the town called Bikini Bottom, and what looks like that the main town gathering takes place at what they preferred as the town's heart, which was emphasized in this film, is the restaurant The Krusty Krab, home of the Krabby Patties - the underwater hamburgers. The joint is owned by Mr. Krabs (Clancy Brown) and mainly spirited by the beloved fry cook SpongeBob SquarePants (Tom Kenny) while the cashier Squidward Tentacles (Roger J. Bumpass) just work there as a pessimistic with no interest of doing anything there. Mr. Krabs's business rival, former best childhood friend, Plankton (Mr. Lawrence), the owner of the next-door neighboring, ultra-rarely-visited restaurant The Chum Bucket, visits the Krusty Krab on daily basis trying, and failing, to steal the Krabby Patty's secret formula - which was never revealed at all in the series besides fake inputs.
Meanwhile, up at the surface, a "pirate" named Burger-Beard (Antonio Banderas) sailed to Bikini Atoll - the island that pinpoints where Bikini Bottom's located, fetching a magical literature treasure. It's a book that tells the tale of the aforementioned underwater town, and what's magical about it is that whatever's written in the book comes true and affects the sea creatures.
Back down below, Plankton was at it again and gotten into a tug-o-war with SpongeBob for the secret formula, which disappeared in the blink of the eye. Mr. Krabs accused Plankton of the theft, but SpongeBob's the only eye-witness that Plankton's actually this time innocent. It gets worse when Krabby Patties have disappeared when the formula vanished. For some reason, the whole Bikini Bottom went into a dystopian chaos in a snap.
Without spoiling the entertainment value that'd show up during the second-third, the final third has our favorite main characters - SpongeBob, Patrick (Bill Fagerbkke), Mr. Krabs, Squidward, and Sandy (Carolyn Lawrence) - went up to the surface when the formula was found being used by Burger-Beard, who has the magic book at the time. Their adventure gets bigger, or as SpongeBob put it "superpowered" when they've given themselves some powers, based on their standards, so they can stop Burger-Beard from writing another word in the magic book.
The film met the general expectations of being greatly enjoyable and funny. When coming to see it on the big screen, you'll find it most entertaining while showing more heart. Thanks to its entertaining value, consisting of great animation and putting the beloved characters into a greater spotlight especially going back to the glory days of the early seasons, the film's been put in a spot over its predecessor. From a fan's viewing, it'll be lucky to get a 5-star rating.
It was threatened by the general silliness aspect that'd come out of nowhere some years ago and it'd became a usual factor animated films today. Because of that factor, it'd done some contributions to some plot elements that are questioned but later turns out to be understandable if you give it some thought about it and find the reasonable notion. It just seems that the film was going into a unique direction that unveils new elements to the series and creates its own opportune moments.
1) Burger-Beard is accompanied by a flock of talking seagulls - or they may be his figments of imagination when crew-less. The seagulls seem to have a nice placement to the story at the okay timing, like representing any new young converts that are listening to SpongeBob for the first time. They also brought out some nice comic relief when trying some work to justify their presence in the film.
2) According to the trailer and the premise, Burger-Beard needed the formula as the secret page is the last missing page of the book. That element seems to be missing. It could've been useful and reasonable to exactly why he wants the tiny formula. This element seen in the final product is the only one that lacks a reason.
3) Throughout the film on SpongeBob's side of the story, it consists of moments of being faithful to his personality that was shown in the earlier seasons and the first film. This personality happens occasionally in the later seasons when just he'd lost most of his frivolousness. What I'm getting at is that his "later seasons personality" was toned down to being at his probably the most annoying yet (sorry) when overusing and repeating the term teamwork when it was already understood to us viewers on where he's going at with the usage of the term. He's probably calling out to Marvel's Avengers in their upcoming features by the incoming issues that could break up the roster. This could mean that SpongeBob probably represents many views on the superhero team-up to keep the awesome roster the way it is. What sort-of validated this point was when SpongeBob picked the "superpowered" amp with similarities and where each member stood. Furthermore, it's one of the reoccurrences throughout the film that shows the cleverness in the comical aspect, which is almost the same before but it has a target than general.
The latest SpongeBob feature is a treat for fans with excitement at first sight, while it's a great enjoyment for regular moviegoers. The aforementioned qualities are the enhancements to the treat that made it most entertaining, while just being generally great and funny. It'd done well to its elements that all great films used that requires deep thoughts on figuring out the notions.
To sum it all up in one sentence, "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water" is this year's "The Lego Movie". (B+)
For the upcoming season(s) with the creator Stephen Hillenburg returning, I would like to see that the glory seen in this film is retained.
