Spongebob Squarepants Sponge Out Of Water: Let’s start off with the trailers shall we?
So firstly where do I begin, well uhh let’s see this movie was completely pointless…it’s a cash grab, I mean the original creator didn’t want any other sequels but yet here we are….so without further a due let’s get into it shall we?
Let’s get the rating out of the way so we can get into spoilers, overall I’ll say this film isn’t bad but it’s also not that good either….nowhere as good as the first Spongebob Squarepants movie, heck that’s where this series should have stopped…too bad it didn’t, so overall I’ll give this film a solid 7/10….from here on out warning ⚠️ spoilers ahead y’all been warned.
So we open up with a pirate named Burger Beard played by Antonio Banderas….yes that Antonio Banderas as in Puss In Boots himself….Jesus, I wonder how much money he was offered for this role, anyways he roles up to an island to retrieve a book which he locates in a skeletons hand that’s on a thrown that’s behind some booby traps….which Burger Beard gets past easily…he just dances around the traps, so he gets up to the book and talks to himself “what’s that? Take the book? Don’t mind if I do” as soon as he takes the book…the skeleton comes to life and is about to punch Burger Beard…the hell is going on? Why is the skeleton alive?
On a side note does anyone find it funny how there’s a lot of these pirate people in Spongebob? Let’s see there’s Patchy The Pirate, the Pirates in the first Spongebob movie who’s watching the film, Burger Beard, pirate ghosts such as The Flying Dutchman, and Lord Poltergeist…..I ain’t complaining because I do like pirates, but does anyone find it weird? Or is it just me?
So anyways the skeleton punches Burger Beard along with the book all the way back onto his ship…how convenient
Then we see a group of pigeons starting to sing the Spongebob Squarepants song, they pull out instruments and start singing to the pirate….ok seriously the tone of this movie is completely off compared to the first film…I liked how the original film opened up with a group of pirates heading to the movies to watch Spongebob Squarepants, this right here is just to much…I mean CGI animated talking/singing pigeons that pull out instruments from nowhere? Seriously?
So anyways they want the pirate to tell them a story of SpongeBob, oh goody. So he tells them a story from the magical book he got from the island, he also plans on rewriting some parts so he steels a feather from one of the pigeon’s butt….
So the plot officially kicks in when we see SpongeBob and his friends at the Krusty Krab, Plankton is up to his usual Shtick….he tries to steel the formula, this time with a Plankton warplane, Spongebob and Patrick launch a giant Har of mayonnaise at the plane, why mayonnaise? Because.
Anyways after the battle, the secret formula just vanishes, take a guess who did that? No, it wasn’t Plankton it was Burger Beard….why? Because he wants the formula to be able to make his own burgers…dunnn dunn dunnn.
Luckily for him land is coming up and now he has the formula, so he tells the pigeons story time done, he presses a button on his steering wheel which makes wheels pop out the sides of his boat…he drives on land on a beach….yeah this is how weird things just got.
Anyways he pulls up In a parking spot, and he turns his pirate ship into a pirate ship food truck…yes you heard that right….a pirate ship food truck, ok then……btw for a cartoon-related film I don’t understand the logic….so he tells the pigeon’s to chew off, 1 of the pigeon’s exit a pigeon sized porta potty huh? Then he says I can’t fly….the pirate tells him to chew and a pigeon-sized taxi shows up and drives the pigeon away….I did say I don’t understand the logic.
Anyways back to Bikini Bottom, Spongebob and Krabs interrogate Plankton….he doesn’t know where the formula went, but no one believes him except for Spongebob…..so Spongebob leaves via a bubble with Plankton, this leads the entire town of to become post-apocalyptic…..which leads to one of my favorite lines in the film..
Basically, the town says without the formula everything will become chaos….
Squidward: do u think we may be over exaggerating?
(World in a Flash becomes post-apocalyptic, and they are all wearing leather)
Krabs: welcome to the apocalypse Mr. Squidward, I hope u like leather.
Lolo that always has me giggling….anyways Spongebob and Plankton team up reluctantly of course……mainly after Plankton sneaks into Spongebobs brain to see if he’s hiding the formula in his brain…..enjoy the clip, I’m sure u will be as weirded out as I was
So now Plankton and Spongebob have an idea to create a time machine to go back in time to try to prevent the formula from disappearing…..alright then time travel.
So they build the machine in Plankton’s laboratory, using a photo booth and gadgets….they somehow create a time machine so they use it.
So as u can see from this bizarre clip with this bizarre music, they travel through some weird wormhole which leads them to the future….specifically 2 days, they see Patrick with a long white beard sticking his head out of mountains of sand…they ask him where’s the Krusty Krab? Which he says where it’d always been…
Then the sand beneath him blows away, revealing his sitting on top of the Krusty Krab sign….womp womp, so they run back into the time machine, to the weird music again…this time they find themselves outside reality in time and space in some kinda futuristic type building….there they meet an omnipotent dolphin wearing a cape who flies….his name is Bubbles.
Take 2 guesses who voices him…1…..2…ok it’s Matt Berry, yeah I’m as surprised as y’all…this is now the second thing I’ve reviewed with Matt Berry having a role in it….yayyyy, as stated in my Fallout shoe reveiw I love that actor he’s a great comedic actor….
Anyways he asks the both of them to watch an eye on these 2 planets and make sure nothing bad happens to both planets while he goes to the restroom….so they both stand there, watch an eye on the 2 planets…just then both planets start moving towards each other and explode….uh oh…
Just then Mr. Bubbles comes back out and sees the mess, he tries to attack Spongebob and Plankton by shooting lasers from his blow hole……uuhhhhh ok then, they both jump back into the time machine….then they land back in current time….so what was the point of the whole time traveling Shtick?
Also if u have made it this far and wondering wait why’s this called Sponge Out Of Water and so far our gang isn’t out of the water yet? Well ur not wrong….I frankly don’t know why it’s titled that because they don’t leave the ocean until the 3rd act….yeah that far into the film.
Anyways the town decides to use Spongebob as a sacrifice to the Krabby Patty gods so they return the formula…yeah ok, so they tie him up on top of a pyramid where Krabs is gonna pull a lever to smash Spongebob in a pancake…..oh goodie.
He then smells the Krabby Patty, but as soon as Mr. Krabs pulls the lever he also smells it as well…so he has Spongebob lead the entire town to the smell, they make their way through the mountains…through a shipwreck in the deep water…to the edge of above land…he says the smell is out there….just then a funny gag happens, where one of the fish folks says sighhh all secondary non-important characters follow me let’s go back…..lol
Anyways the gang heads up towards land fue to the help of bubbles, who shows up and puts them in his moth then he launches them onto land…when they get there they land on the beach and are confused at what they see….they have mistaken the humans for land porpoises….yeah don’t know how they can mistake humans as those…also Spongebob and the gang are now 3D molded….
Anyway after exploring a bit, also after some shenanigans that lead them to getting kicked by a kid onto an umbrella that launches them onto a dock where a guitar guy is playing a guitar…
Both Spongebob and Patrick find a cotton candy machine…..they eat all the cotton candy, and Sandy says with all that cotton candy u can run around the world…which does lead to my favorite gag in this film..we’re we see them go hyper on a sugar rush…then proceed to laugh a lot and we see behind them the locations are changing as if they’re running past famous locations…
But turns out they are just standing in front of a card stand which Squidward is picking 1 off the other looking through them….then Spongebob and Patrick fall down due to exhaustion….
Anyways eventually they locate Burger Beard selling patties to people….he spots them climbing up the side of his food truck….they ask him why he has their formula, and he says don’t u mean me formula?
Then he pulls his formula out, then proceeds to write in the book that Spongebob and the gang vanish to an island with hungry birds flying over them….so they get teleported away…
When they spawn they all look doomed….luckily for them, Spongebob steals a piece of a paper from the book, then proceeds to take a feather off a bird….then writes on the page that he and his friends get superpowers….say what now?
So yeah they teleport back, normal human-sized and each has superpowers….and superhero suits, say what now?
Oh btw Plankton got left behind on the island, and he decides to write something in the paper, well she what that is later…. Anyway, our character’s superpowers are…
Spongebob: has a suit with a bubble wand on the top that pops out bubbles.
Patrick: has the power to summon ice cream to him, whT a useless power.
Mr. Krabs: he’s now a robot who now has 1 wheel to move on.
Sandy: she’s a human-sized realistic squirrel.
Squidward: his power is to shoot out a magical number of musical notes to attack.
Anyways Burger Beard gets onto his pirate ship and rides away through the beach city…..while Sponge and the gang follow pursuit.
So eventually they catch up, Burger Beard stops his vehicle to shoot them with canon balls…he pulls a lever which spawns out tons and tons of cannons…which leads to the funniest moment in this film in my opinion…
Yes, y’all see that correctly, the canon balls are going through Spongebob bubble wand and 2 hands. Causing the cannon balls to be trapped in bubbles…
BTW there’s only one joke I did laugh at in this film, where Spongebob is exhausted he falls on the floor, and Patrick comes and cuddles him….Sponge says the light Patrick it’s getting brighter..
Which then Patrick moves his head in front of the sun to block it off of Sponge, which he says better? And Spongebob says much better…..hahahaahhah get it!?
So anyways eventually they end the battle when Plankton shows up and grabs ahold of the boat before he can drive away…because he’s now he’s huge like the Hulk, he calls himself Plank-ton…get it, Sighh.
He grabs the pirate…he tries to reason with Plankton but instead Plankton just tosses him onto an island, so now Plankton has the formula but he decides to give it to Mr. Krabs for some reason…
They then head back to Bikini Bottom.
Then the film ends with Burger Beard’s body in the sand, his head sticking out…the pigeons return and ask him to sing the song…he reluctantly agrees, and they carry a picture frame in front of him….then the ending becomes animated, he becomes the pirate head in the beginning who sings the opening song for some reason…
Then Bubbles the Dolphin returns telling them to shut up, it’s a terrible song…then they do a rap battle for some reason..
Yeah idk what’s going on, this is just complete randomness….this film feels like they made stuff up as they went along….anyways the film finally ends with the Dolphin saying hmm that’s pretty good actually.
Yeah back to this song from earlier in the time traveling scene, oh goodie….overall hope y’all enjoy my reveiw on this film…also here’s a teaser for the next reveiw I’m working on. Also this series needs to stop, stop it Nickelodeon. Stop milking this property.
