    The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie

    ★★★★

    Memeing aside, it's actually pretty good.

    The SpongeBob SquarePants movie isn't perfect or anything, but it's a fun time which is kinda worth a lot more. It's pretty basic and simple overall, but it all works and has fun songs and story beats. Part of me does wish we got some more regulars from the show in this though.

    I can't believe this is the movie dominating the Golden Globes nominations, I really can't. Is there something in the water? I don't think Emilia Pérez is a TERRIBLE movie, but it's uh... a pretty bad one. Is it worth sitting through a lackluster musical with one or two decent scenes just because it's trying to trick you into thinking it's being progressive and…
