Narrative, obviously, isn't one of the new Spongebob film's strengths, and to expect too much of it from that department, warrants a huge disappointment. Be that as it may, it does not make Spongebob any less of an entertainment.

The movie plunges us back to Bikini Bottom where the legendary Krabby Patty gets stolen. This sparks a revolt among loyal followers (this includes almost every single citizen in the underwater community), and being partly blamed, Spongebob is forced to surge forth to the surface, and head to the land, blasting into the human world. Joined by Plankton, Squidward, Patrick, Sandy, and the restaurant owner Mr. Krabs, Spongebob embarks on a mission of apprehending the enemy, Burger Beard (Antonio Banderas), and reclaiming the missing krabby patty recipe.

Whatever the movie intends to deliver doesn't really matter, because ultimately in the end, what strikes most is that Spongebob ends up doing what it is supposed to do and being what it is used to be: a comic relief. Regardless of how thin and scarce the material is, the movie comes out as a confident extension of the TV show we've always loved, and for everybody who adores the character since childhood, it will be easy to appreciate Spongebob for what it really is and has always been. For the record, last February, I badly criticized Fifty Shades of Grey for its almost empty source material. Spongebob may not be any different, and I find it difficult to pick better choice between the two, but taking into account every single good attribute from both films, Fifty Shades doesn't even strike as a worthy competition. Sorry fans. Lol Bursting with vibrant colors and loud with goofy one- liners, SPONGEBOB MOVIE: Sponge Out Of Water is all for the jokes. It's messed up, but in many ridiculously entertaining ways. This is definitely a movie that will not come across as something less than amusing. The kids (and kids-at-heart) will definitely love it. 7/10
