The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

Plot synopsis:
A pirate named Burger-Beard travels to Bikini Atoll, where he obtains a magical book with the power to make any text written upon it reality. The book tells the story of SpongeBob SquarePants and his adventures in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob loves his job as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab fast food restaurant, where he cooks burgers called Krabby Patties and works for Mr. Krabs. He has spent years guarding the secret Krabby Patty formula from Plankton and Karen, the owners of a competing restaurant called the Chum Bucket.
One day, Plankton attacks the Krusty Krab in an attempt to steal the formula. After a military battle involving giant foods and condiments, Plankton feigns surrender. He uses a decoy of himself to give Mr. Krabs a fake penny, which the real Plankton then hides inside in order to gain access to Krabs' vault. As the decoy distracts Mr. Krabs, Plankton steals the formula, leaving a fake in its place. SpongeBob catches Plankton and the two engage in a tug of war over the formula, which magically vanishes before anyone can claim it.
Without the secret formula, SpongeBob cannot make Krabby Patties, causing the customers to become ravenous. SpongeBob is the only one who believes Plankton is innocent of stealing the formula, and when all of Bikini Bottom turns on them, SpongeBob creates a giant soap bubble for them to fly away in. Bikini Bottom is soon reduced to a post-apocalyptic wasteland due to the absence of the much-relied-on Krabby Patty. SpongeBob proposes he and Plankton team up to find the formula. SpongeBob tries to explain the concept of teamwork to Plankton, who does not quite understand. The two head to the Chum Bucket to rescue Karen, who helps them power a time machine that will take them back to the moment before the formula disappeared. They assemble the machine at an abandoned taco restaurant and end up traveling far into the future, where they meet Bubbles, a magical dolphin who acts as an overseer of the galaxy. SpongeBob and Plankton succeed in retrieving the formula, but it turns out to be the fake one Plankton had left.
Burger-Beard converts his pirate ship into a food truck to sell Krabby Patties at a beach community. The final page of the book is discarded in the ocean and lands on Sandy Cheeks' treedome. Crazed by the lack of Krabby Patties, Sandy assumes the page is a sign from the "sandwich gods" and suggests a sacrifice be made to appease them. As the town attempts to sacrifice SpongeBob, he and Mr. Krabs smell Krabby Patties. The townsfolk follow the scent, which leads to the surface; Bubbles returns and reveals he hated his job. He thanks SpongeBob by granting him and his sea creature friends the ability to breathe on land; Plankton also joins by stowing away in SpongeBob's sock. Bubbles launches SpongeBob and the others out of his blowhole to the surface.
The team soon lands on a beach and finds the source of the Krabby Patty scent: Burger-Beard's food truck. Burger Beard reveals he stole the formula by using the book to rewrite their story and then uses it to banish the gang to Pelican Island. SpongeBob uses the book's final page to transform himself and the others into superheroes with special powers – The Invincibubble (SpongeBob), Mr. Superawesomeness (Patrick), Sour Note (Squidward), The Rodent (Sandy), and Sir Pinch-a-Lot (Mr. Krabs). They return and find Burger-Beard, who runs away with the formula, forcing the team to give chase. During the ensuing battle, the team manages to destroy the book, but Burger-Beard overpowers them one by one.
Having been left on Pelican Island, Plankton becomes a muscle-bound hero and comes to assist them. Plankton and SpongeBob create one final attack to defeat Burger-Beard and retrieve the formula. After sending Burger-Beard flying to Bikini Atoll, Plankton returns the formula to Mr. Krabs, having learned the value of teamwork. The gang uses the final page's magic to return home to Bikini Bottom. With Krabby Patties back, the city is finally return to normal and Plankton re-assumes his role as business rival, thus "putting things back the way they were".

Review: There were also some suggestive themes in the movie, so the adult appeal is definitely back!On the kid side, it was also EXTREMELY different than I've ever seen in SpongeBob. At first, I didn't like how over the top and WEIRD this film was on the kid friendlier side, but I stopped and realized that kids from 1999 and kids from 2015 are ENTIRELY different and have different appeals.
I know what the kids are into these days (not trying to sound old), and SpongeBob definitely pulled it off in this new movie.With an entirely different, hilarious, and refreshing comedy stance than seasons 1-3, and a huge attempt at actually appealing to kids of 2015 rather than following a bland formula, I have to say that Season 10 is going to be one of the best seasons since the show started.
Sponge Out of Water is an absolute TREAT for both old and new fans of the series alike, and the movie kept me entertained to the very end.
Also this movie is sure to leave you wondering "what will happen next?!" As you can never quite predict what the writers will throw out at you (others have compared this movie to an acid trip, and I don't want to spoil anything, but I found it a rather enjoyable one) The only thing I did not like was the "superpowers" part, (this was the part that turned me off in the first place) as I felt some of them tried "too hard" to make the audience laugh, and it just didn't feel like Spongebob.
If you're a long time fan of Spongebob, this is a great movie to relive your childhood a little bit more.
I enjoyed the plot, but I sometimes wished they would have made it a bit more complex, as that could safely have been done without making it harder to understand for children.The first part of the movie seems like what could have been a regular episode, with small Banderas-breaks in between.
The latter part is the fish out of water-story, which could probably have worked just as well without the build up from the first part.I'm sure children loves this movie, and if you're open to silly characters breaking the fourth wall, you'll have no trouble watching it with them..
This latest Spongebob film might be the end of its glory as it seemingly panders the audience into another lame Alvin and the Chipmunks/The Smurfs approach, but surprisingly that only becomes a marketing stunt, and it turns out that most of the movie is basically just like the show, but at its original form.
It didn't need any grand or blockbuster type of plot to save the material, we just need to revisit the stuff that we truly loved about Spongebob.Other than its creative animation and zany undersea world, Spongebob Squarepants has always been known for its richly established characters and unique sense of humor.
The film doesn't offer anymore bigger plot than retrieving the Krabby Patty secret formula, it's all about fooling at the audiences as it messes with the logic and their senses, the Spongebob way, of course.The mix of animation and live-action is definitely never a stranger to Spongebob, but its involvement is often taken as a joke.
But we don't have to underestimate this approach too much, because apparently it's still pretty fun when they are in the real world, giving the humans some hilarious reactions, like the one who's wondering if the Krabby Patty he's eating is hallucinogenic after encountering the gang as superheroes.As feature film goes, it doesn't go beyond bombastic, if it does then it's all about the weirdness instead of epic proportions.
While Antonio Banderas makes a fun turn as the villain, but his moments are the one where he interacts to talking seagulls which amazingly works for this character.The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water is what the fans deserve.
When I watched the first trailer of this new movie I was very happy to know I would have the chance to see Spongebob, one of my favorite cartoons, in a big screen, and the best part, in 3D!
i got to go t the screening premiere of the movie and i gotta say the animation was awesome, the 3D was amazing, the comedy made me fall out my seat, what more can yo ask for?i wont spoil anything but they make a few references and you have to keep a sharp eye out for themalso Antonio ban deres does an excellent job at playing his characteri also like how they spend half of their time under water, and the other half on land.other than that, i recommend you to see this movie!9 out of 10.
Half 2D animation like the TV show, half live action with Spongebob and his friends done in 3D CGI, Antonio Banderas plays a pirate captain of a ship telling what feels like another episode of Spongebob with Plankton's new attempt on trying to steel the formula for Krabby patties to make the Chum Bucket better.
I thought the seagulls and Antonio Banderas got far too much screen time, I think they were trying to appeal to a younger audience instead of the die hard sponge bob fans.
Sometimes, though the time is worth the wait and this can be said for Spongebob's 2nd big screen entry with some of the usual flaws (most obvious being continuity).Like many other Spongebob episodes and the movie before this, Plankton is up to his old tricks again; attempting to steal Mr. Krabs' secret Krabby Patty formula.
It was eleven years ago since we got Spongebob Squarepants: The Movie and though it's no masterpiece, I thought it was a big step for the little sponge and remains a strong animated film from Nickelodeon.
I say this in a good way for fans like myself who expect a lot of the characters oddball personalities and even the show's somewhat abstract animation.The film's trailers have advertised the live action sequences even though they take up only the last twenty minutes.
As a fan of the Spongebob Squarepants series I gotta say this movie was a disappointment.I stand by the idea that great children's movies are enjoyable for both kids and adults, but that is not the case for this movie; the humor is dull and cheap, there is no true, meaningful message, and the script is badly paced: some scenes develop too quickly, others are awfully slow and smothering, and a few things just make no sense at all.
That's right, the next SpongeBob movie has landed in theaters and here is  What you might expect: Childish Humor, A basic SpongeBob plot, interesting animation choices, and Antonio Banderas making a fool of himself.
SpongeBob doesn't pull any punches in this film, starting over the top with a war against plankton using condiments and spanning across familiar plot elements like time traveling and super powers.
While I like the first movie much better, Sponge Out of Water has a plenty of silly fun to enjoy.
This is because unlike these other SpongeBobs, this movie is not written well and the characters are a bit heartless and behave oddly to say the least.The film begins with Plankton making yet another attempt to steal the Krabby Patty formula.
I remember one of the first DVD collections of the show was called "Nautical Nonsense," and what a perfect summation of "Spongebob" to anyone who hasn't seen or heard of the program (if there are people).The film opens with live-action footage of a pirate named Burger-Beard (Antonio Banderas), who discovers a book that tells the story of Spongebob and his friends, all of whom living under the sea in Bikini Bottom, and that anything written in the book immediately becomes truth.
This results in a bitter war between the two restaurants, through the use of condiments and fast-food, which is surprisingly fun and sets the film's zealous, incredibly chaotic tone right away.Plankton has always tried to get the secret formula for the Krusty Krab's delicacy known as the Krabby Patty, and just when he has the bottle that contains it, fighting Spongebob for it, the formula disappears right before their eyes.
Consider the scene where Spongebob and Plankton embrace time-traveling in order to obtain the formula and stumble into a plethora of different dimensions, one where they meet a live-action Dolphin named Bubbles, who is ordered to assure Jupiter and Saturn do not collide.Even the songs in the film, unlike in the original, 2004 film, are built off entirely random verses and harmonies, and this is one of the biggest issues with "The Spongebob Movie" as a whole.
No it has to be 3D to be worst.(i mean really ?)5)The Big one has to be with story (and is really bad)it goes like this :A pirate find a magic book to use it to take the Secret Krabby Patty Formula so to make Krabby Patty to sell it to be rich and famous but meanwhile Spongebob and he's friends goes to the surface to take back but in order to this they have to use the magic of the book to be super heroes and is a huge battle to take back Secret Krabby Patty Formula.(so not only this story make no senses but is stupid & lame)6)The Battles scenes are boring & lame7)The songs are bad, you though the songs from the Atlantis Squarepantis Episode are bad here are the same.8)Character are either really stupid or annoyingThis movie is a waste of your time don't watch it and don't buy it in DVD (and especially Don't watch it in 3D)2/10 20/100 1/5 of stars.
The movie about Spongebob and Plankton, who were once rivals, teamed up together to find the secret formula is a fun one and sometimes, even a little bit too crazy.
But it's not going to be easy getting it back, as a scurvy pirate stands between Spongebob and the recipe.I remember the time when Nickelodeon was the best with are favorite programs that we use to watch and enjoy the hell out of, but after a while when all the programs was getting cancelled one by one and Nickelodeon itself was getting watered down with endless bullsh*t that we didn't want, we already sawed what was coming for Nickelodeon and now it's now known as the dropping ground of uninspiring ideas of new TV shows that wouldn't even make it to season 2 or 3.
The animation was pretty good, now in the trailer you can see the live action 3D animation well that's actually a couple minutes long in the last part, the whole movie is the good old animation that we loved in the first place.Antonio Banderas as the villain was surprisingly enjoyable.
Now normally when big names actors do these kids movie just for money and nothing else, not even trying in they role, but here is totally different I mean was Antonio Banderas actually put effort in his character and that's why his character was a enjoyable and fun villain.For problems these a couple like: Now I talked about Antonio Banderas villain and how enjoyable he was, but his story ark and his big plan I didn't really give a care about.
Much is made of the flick's CGI final movement in which our heroes take a step onto live-action land, but the majority of 'The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out Of Water (2015)' plays out in fantastic, elastic 2D animation that brings the form back to the big-screen in a big way and should not be overlooked.
Unlike other kids films such as "Toy Story", "Spongebob" is not a family movie, most likely being depicted as annoying to anyone above the age of ten.
The town has collapsed into anarchy as the townspeople go mad from lack of Krabby Paddy's, and SpongeBob turns to Plankton to travel across the ocean, and throughout time itself, to try and bring the formula back to Bikini Bottom.This film features much of the same humour as the television program.
Instead of quotes that we could easily generate relatable memes from, this movie relies too heavily on bland songs and unnecessary pop culture references to duplicate the same charm that made SpongeBob and his friends famous.The plot of nautical nonsense is treated like an extra-long episode of the show, starting with a pirate's quest to retrieve a magical book that tells about this Sponge's story.
SpongeBob decides to clear Plankton's name, and find the Krabby Patty formula, by means of time travel, before this cyberpunk post-apocalyptic black leather Bikini Bottom turns them both over as a living sacrifice to restore the patties themselves (yes, you read that right).All of the crazy psychedelic scenarios of SpongeBob's quest stems its logic entirely by the jokes, which create both the movie's greatest strength and greatest drawback.
Then it's just twenty wasted minutes of exploration on the surface world, which causes us to question: why should I care if they get this Krabby Patty formula back from Burgerbeard?Maybe if the story boarders spent less time making jokes about a Claymation watcher dolphin named "Bubbles" who's held his bladder for 10,000 years (no, I'm not making this up), and more time delivering what they wanted to do in this film, then the end product would not feel like a ninety-minute commercial for the television series..
I've seen clips of the Smurfs movies, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Scooby- Doo, those little M&M men where the characters are in real-life with real people, animated alongside them, but this one looked a lot stranger than them and somewhere during the experience I began to feel as if I had consumed some amount of bad mushrooms, the cow poop kind, that make you go funny inside like you're seeing things from different dimensions.
"Vloggers Casper Lee and Joe Sugg have each landed a role in The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out Of Water.The boys will feature as Antonio Banderas' side-kick seagulls in the new 3D animated film along with Alan Carr and Stacey SolomonJoe is voicing a seagull called Kyle while Casper is pretty down about the fact his part is so minor his seagull simply goes by the name of Seagull Number Two.Alan Carr will voice Seagull Number One, and is still trying to figure out whether the part is an insult or a compliment and we're still unsure as to whether Stacey will be Seagull Number Three"..
I would say, 2004's "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie" was pretty much the final straw for me.And so "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water" was my first true venture back into this world in ten years and boy were my expectations low.Synopsis: When pirate Antonio Banderas steals the top secret Krabby Patty formula, SpongeBob SquarePants (the one who lives in a pineapple under the sea) and Plankton (the archenemy of Mr. Krabs) must team up and venture onto land (into the world of live-action, 3-D animation) in order to retrieve it before a patty-less Bikini Bottom (the place where they all live...under the sea) becomes a scene of out "Mad Max".While this sounds like (for lack of more inspired verbiage) a totally-awesome premise worthy of being labeled as vintage SpongeBob, the movie doesn't rise above the realms of the occasional chuckle, until its weirder time traveling sequences near mid-point; and then again during a 3rd act which felt as if it took forever to get to, as director Paul Tibbitt finally gives his audiences all of the "out of water" stuff that we were promised.Final Thought: About 50% of this movie is psychedelic, Meta, Adult Swim-esque humor which had me rolling, but had most of the children in my screening staring at the screen with puzzled gazes.
"The SpongeBob Movie - Sponge Out of Water" has too few entertaining moments for adults - or kids..
I found "The SpongeBob Movie – Sponge Out of Water" (PG, 1:33) to be floating somewhere in the middle.This movie is based on the long-running Nickelodeon television series "SpongeBob Square Pants" and is a sequel to the first SpongeBob movie, 2004's "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie." Like the first film, all of the popular characters from the TV show are here (voiced by their long-time human counterparts) and both films feature a mixture of traditional animation and live action.
But, unlike the first film, this one animates its characters in the live action scenes with CGI, sets up a scenario in which their appearance is very different from what SpongeBob fans are used to and makes things even more interesting by pairing up traditional adversaries to work towards a common goal.
Most of the movie is made up of traditional animation and feels like an extended version of the cartoon, with a few live action scenes driving the main plot at the bottom of the sea.
The search for the formula leads to a time travel adventure, an encounter with a magic celestial dolphin and a trip into the non-animated world above the sea where they use a page from that magic book to write superhero identities for themselves."The SpongeBob Movie – Sponge Out of Water" has a clever premise which is diminished by a lackluster script and some false advertising.
I just cannot say it for his most recent outing as an avid fan of the character.'The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water' is for the first fifteen minutes business as usual.
All in all, a great movie for the kids, and fun for old sponge bob fans like me.
This movie is nothing like the first one, the first one was actually fun and entertaining to watch but in this film, I couldn't believe how terrible it is!
