    Spongebob musical

    Plankton wants to steal the Krabby Patty formula again and take over the world. It goes badly and Karen has had enough. She magnetizes the Chum Bucket which attracts all the metal in Bikini Bottom. She turns into a mega three-headed evil robot using all the metal to create a giant robot. In flashback, Karen is shown to be a calculator and a potato.

    This is a Spongebob musical concentrating on Plankton and Karen. They used a variety of animation styles. It's interesting. The story isn't all that much. I'm not sure that it deserves a full movie treatment. I do like some of the songs. Maybe this is better as different smaller segments. It does run a bit long.

    Plankton Rules

    I wish I had of seen it before, Spongebob is funny, brilliantly creative and has some nice colourful effects that'll be enjoyed by the kids. The Movie felt fresh as a daisy, and Beutifullly colourful as a rainbow.

    The creativity is great, the Karen Monster, the other worlds, the world that was destroyed, the humour and the colourful effects, which is what made it slightly enjoyable in that sense, because the world-building is great, and the other storyline is fine, some clichéd written words, but other then that the creativity and the humour is to be adored.

    The story wasn't rushed, and the pacing was fluid and neatly done. Nothing felt too quick or too slow, everything was understandable and the story flowed well, especially under water. Although the final act could of been stretched more, as it did feel too quick, BUT as I said the rest of the movie was paced fluidly and calmly, not too quick and not too slow, just right.

    The kids will love this movie, it's going to also be admired by the adults as some of the jokes were actually relevant to today, that's why they are good, and some are different which is great. Also this movie could of used Spongebobs friends more to do a musical, as most of the musicals were mostly fine, but they were better with his other characters, I just felt as if it wasn't as strong or represented the best of Bob, and Plankton.

    I'd rate this film a 6 Because I enjoyed the effects, the Humour, and the story. But a few things could of been done to improve it in my opinion, But overall Decent fun time, and no more then that.

    Don't add humans to the show

    This movie is a fun and nostalgic experience, especially for those who grew up watching SpongeBob SquarePants. It stays true to the humor and charm of the series while giving us an interesting look into Plankton's world. I really enjoyed learning about Karen's origin and how she became Plankton's sidekick, it was a great addition to his character and added more depth to their relationship.

    The musical moments were simple but entertaining, capturing the lighthearted spirit of SpongeBob movies.

    The 3D animation is different from what I was used to, but it looked smooth, colorful, and visually appealing.

    However, the script isn't perfect, and the humans acting at the end was TERRIBLE. It completely took me out of the experience. Despite that, it's still an enjoyable movie, and I would rate it 7/10.

    my honest opinion

    While everything is very good, I really love this movie, the only flaw I hate about it is the fact they try to rewrite the lore about why plankton wants the Krabby patty secret formula, besides that everything else is really good, of course whenever there's a flashback, I feel like they should've went to more of the original cartoonist style because in my opinion that'd make it better, but it does have its good sides, its a really good love story about plankton and karen, and yes there could've been more characters used, its overall a good movie I really loved watching it, I'll admit it was pretty funny too.

    Mr Lawrence's Movie

    You know what, maybe SpongeBob movies from Netflix are not completely hopeless after all. Plankton The Movie might not be the best one, but probably the best SpongeBob movies in recent years. It has given Plankton his own movie and has handled the character very well. Sure, the plot can at times feel the movie tries to play it safe and the models can be a bit off. But the movie does make up for those for having great flashback scenes that gives growth for Plankton himself on why he started doing evil, good comedy especially from the snarks, a good amount of character development for the movie, some animation improvement, fun action, and some solid songs. I know that there will be those that want to watch this just to see how it improved from last time, and it surprisingly did. So I'll say this: Do you want to watch a movie about Plankton? I do think it will be worth a watch. Sure I know there's people that are tired of SpongeBob, but at least this one will be one of the better SpongeBob projects to get a good laugh. I'll be honest, I did have doubts for this at first based on my experience from Saving Bikini Bottom and I thought that was going to be how Netflix SpongeBob movies would go. But surprisingly, Plankton did manage to find a way to make his plan work for this film. Well, we are getting another SpongeBob movie at the end of this year. And it does contain producers involved with the first season. So all I can say is that Search For SquarePants better be really something great.
