Surreally goofy and entertaining for both children and their parents.

Very similar to the edgy animated 온라인카지노추천 show.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie takes on rather too much water during its extended feature-length submersion.

Chicago Reader

The Nickelodeon cartoon series about an oceanic sponge and his starfish sidekick washes onto the big screen with a tide of weak one-liners, exaggerated reactions, and vaguely nauseating gags.

As a 온라인카지노추천 series, Spongebob has proven to be quite entertaining in 30-minute doses. Stretching the running time to 90 minutes doesnt help raise the level of appreciation, though.

Rated: C

As much as I resisted the Bob, I have to admit this is actually a pretty funny film.

The questions that the religious right needs to ask are how and why they ever confused homosexuality with pedophilia. Not only does blurring this issue do gays a disservice, it lets SpongeBob get away with murder.

Over 20 years later, this classic still holds up. It's fun to break this out every couple years on March 14th, the day crab fries, and I love rewatching it every time.

This film stands out as one of the best animated movies I have ever seen. If 'peak' were to exist as a concept, this film would undoubtedly be the prime example. It’s flawless in every aspect, nostalgia, character development, animation and truly represents the art of cinema at its finest.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
