Bob's Burgers: O Filme

The Bob's Burgers Movie is an adaptation of one of my favorite TV shows of all time, I was curious and interested to see how they would bring this to the big screen, and it paid off, this movie was a great adaptation of an iconic TV series.

The Bob's Burgers Movie has a wonderful and very interesting plot and it's built like a crime thriller put in a musical comedy, these 4 things blended perfectly with each other and it has surprisingly good musical numbers, that was a fresh new idea and I loved it, this movie is hilarious while also being very suspenseful at times, with high stakes and upgraded animation, and some of the most suspenseful scenes I've seen in years.

The Bob's Burgers Movie is a great adaptation of a perfect TV show, and I'm gonna give it an A-

I'm a big fan of the series and have to admit that my anticipation for the movie has been growing since it's announcement. Whilst I'd be the first to admit that it's not much more than an ambitious episode of the show, for me that was more than enough.

With the bank about to foreclose on their cooking equipment, the last thing that Bob (H Jon Benjamin) and Linda Belcher (John Roberts) need is a giant sinkhole to open right outside the door to the restaurant and stop any customers from getting in. Their misery is compounded when a body is found in the hole and it becomes an active crime scene. Meanwhile all three Belcher children are undergoing a crisis of confidence. Tina (Dan Mintz) is unable to take the next step and ask Jimmy Jnr (Benjamin again) to be her summer boyfriend. Gene (Eugene Mirman) is not as confident that his band are ready for their gig as they might be and Tina (Kristen Schall) is debating whether it's time to finally lose the bunny ears that have been her trademark since preschool.

Animation-wise, like "The Simpsons movie" before it, it sticks close to the style of the show, but add in a few expensive looking 3D CGI scenes for buildings and vehicles. Over the years, the show has become increasingly musical, so it's not surprising that there are several excellent songs in this run. I do think that they were a step up on the songs in the series too, proper catchy numbers.

I would say I thought that the second half of the film was stronger than the first, not that the first half was bad, but it has a lot of work to do to set up the various strands of the story that all come together in the second half. That worked for me though, and the moments I remember laughing at were all generally in that second half.

Do you need to see it on the silver screen? Perhaps not, but when it hits Disney Plus in a couple of months, it's essential viewing.

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.

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.
