Saving Bikini Bottom

...it really took a turn for the worse. The first half of the movie wasn't that bad. This movie was initially like putting on a comfortable pair of pajamas, comfortable and familiar. But at the specific point where my family all turned to each other and said, "That's just like Shark Boy and Lava Girl" (if you've seen this movie, you'll know exactly the moment), that was the point of no return. It was all downhill after that.

All of the familiar characters were well performed. As for the human element...geez. One of the characters at one point asks, "Wait...we get a paycheck?". Yes, and that's clearly all this was for.

The lackluster performances and abysmal CGI drag the movie down to the point of not being enjoyable. 4/10 is maybe generous, but that's where I'll land.

I'll be honest, I'm one of those people that were patient enough to wait until it comes on Netflix rather than to ruin it for everyone else by watching the leak. Now that I have officially watched this movie, I have began to understand the people saying it's terrible. In fact, it came out worse than I thought. Saving Bikini Bottom is hands down, the worst SpongeBob movie so far. I can name a little bit of positives like a decent addition with Sandy's family and how the designs try to stay true to the series, but they're just small ones compared to a good chunk amount of problems this movie has to carry. The writing didn't even try to make this a proper Sandy Cheeks spin-off, the story is very little, the humor is painfully unfunny, the animation is mediocre and sometimes look more fitting for a video game, the characters have barely a development for the movie, and the pacing for this is so rushed that it felt more of an extended special of the show. If there's one SpongeBob movie I recommend to skip, it's got to be this one. There are plenty of stuff from SpongeBob that are more better than this, whether if it's other of the movies or even episodes of the series. It honestly feels a real shame that Sandy Cheeks was unable to live up the potential for her spin-off and was a complete waste of time. I don't think I should even call this wasted potential. It's more in the levels of a soulless product. Also, I've heard that the next movie, Search For SquarePants, is going to involve producers from the first season of the series. If that's the case, then I should hope that next movie will be better. I'm rooting for you, Flying Dutchman.

This is a horrible movie. You can tell that this movie is very low budget. The animation is horrible, The plot lines are none existent and the characters feel dead inside. The live action at times can be disturbing to watch, especially during the time when the main villain turns into a cg robot and starts moving around with the real life head attached to this horrible cg garbage. Please for you sanity please just don't watch this movie. Trust me i would rather watch another SpongeBob movie including the 3rd one rather then this. This makes the 3rd movie look like a masterpiece. So anyways that's why i justify this movie getting a 1/10 rating, i mean i would give lower if i can.

We were excited to watch this for movie night. After the first 15 minutes we made ourselves keep watching.to see if it got better. It didn't . We continued to watch though to see how much worse it could get and it did. The water stated 7 years and older but it really should have been 7 years and under. If we went to the theatre to see this I would have been more excited about the free popcorn refills. Super young ones will probably laugh and enjoy it at least. Definitely was not what we were expecting from all the previous movies. The human fish will be stuck in our minds forever. We chose to finish the movie so that's on us, but at this point fart jokes would have been easier to watch.

So i just saw the Sandy Checks movie and it's hands down the worst ever SpongeBob project, The storyline was really rushed, the humor was embarrassingly bad, and the animation was far beyond terrible, not to mention the CGI being worse then Green Lantern. I really don't like the new characters and i think the actors could have done a much better job, and the writing for this movie is so bad that it's undesirable. This movie should have been about SpongeBob and not Sandy. I hope they learn from their mistakes for the next movie and fingers crossed that they make the animation OG SpongeBob style.
