Bob's Burgers: Le Film

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.

The movie is consistently hilarious throughout the entire run-time. The music was decently enjoyable with just the right amount of songs sprinkled throughout the movie. The plot wasn't super grandiose, but it really didn't need to be. Still larger in scope than the average episode. All the characters were likable and positive too, which isn't common with adult animated shows anymore. Just an amazing time from beginning to end.

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.

Never watched a full episode, just maybe a few minutes as I was channel surfing but this was a very entertaining movie. What made it unique were the constant quips and cleaver responses to the situation, and it was pretty much through almost the entire movie. Listen and enjoy the dialogue, had me smiling throughout the entire movie. I suspected I missed a lot since the puns and funnies are fast and furious, and it was the case. Even more fun the 2nd time around.

The Bob's Burgers Movie meets expectations. It's funny, purposeful, and developed enough to maintain investment. Fundamentally, it's a murder mystery, but also intertwines Bob's money issues (which is the emotional force). Plus, Louise is intrinsically motivated to prove her bravery, making her the main protagonist and giving her the clearest arc. Bob's Burgers doesn't have the tightest crafted humor, but these dynamic characters help it connect emotionally. The film is still lighthearted and silly (with skilled setup and payoff), but it peppers in enough drama to create substance. Thus, Bob's Burgers succeeds because it delivers a sincere combination of laughs and relatability.

Technically, Bob's Burgers is proficient. Surprisingly, there are musical numbers that heighten the soundtrack, cinematography, editing, and direction. There is dramatic lighting, framing, and camerawork. Also, passing cuts, smash cuts, and time lapses help the comedic rhythm. Furthermore, voice acting is ranged, animation is personal, and CGI is supportive. Punchlines are heightened by exaggerated music, transitions, and surrealism. Overall, the filmmaking reinforces the humorous mood. It isn't high art, but it possesses consistent craft. Therefore, Bob's Burgers is a fairly enjoyable experience. Viewers should expect skilled comedy and decent emotions.
