Bob's Burgers: La Película

Just watched it and it's a great entry for people that haven't seen it. The animation was next level here, and you can see they put much more money into it. The plot and storylines were nice and simple. Great movie!

You really venture out of known territory when you abandon a format, and there is no guarantee that a 1h40m film will be as good as a half-hour show, if made with the same material.

And this film is the proof of that.

The Bob's Burgers Movie has the plot elements of a single Bobs Burgers episode, stretched thin, and filled with mediocre songs.

Honestly, i can tolerate the plot, but i can't take the songs.

The TV show itself has plenty of musical numbers, they are bad, awkward songs that are fun because they are the imagination of the bad, awkward characters that populate the show. It makes no sense to try to flesh them out into full-length, musical-film songs because they lose that sense of horrid charm that they have in the TV show.

My vote: 6/10 - best stick with the show and ignore the movie.

I like the TV series so thought this would be a great movie to watch. Nut for me it didn't hot the spot.

I found the movie quite long and tedious to watch. I think the problem is the musical numbers. They seem to dominate and really take away from the core humour that I experience in the series.

If yu are a die-hard fan you may love the movie.

I enjoyed it, but felt I could have waited for it to come to TV.

A few of the most beloved and funniest characters were missing, most notably Gayle. It felt like they concentrated too much on making big thrilling action where I would have preferred to see more character drama, as the characters are what make the show so loveable. They did do some with Louise's character and I enjoyed that.

There were funny parts but very few that made me actually laugh out loud like the TV show does. Seemed like they could have let loose a little more and be more "themselves", rather than trying so hard to be movie-ish, if that makes sense.

Believe it or not, I've never seen the show before but love seeing movies so gave this a try. Wasn't too bad at all actually. Going to start watching the show because of it so I'm going to assume if a newcomer liked the movie then I'm sure the fans of the actual show will definitely like it. Kind of wish it had a bigger feel like Simpson's Movie and Beavis and Butthead Do America had, but the plot was fine as it was.
