Canadian Screening Review - Third Spongebob Movie will Please Fans
22 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I saw the exclusive Canadian engagement of the film last weekend. Overall, I think Spongebob fans and kids will enjoy this movie- probably not as much as the first movie but definitely as much as the second.

The plot is pretty simple. It pretty much features the same plot as the previous two movies where Spongebob needs to save something that was stolen while Plankton tries to steal the secret formula while he's away.

And just like the in other movies, Spongebob and Patrick's trip is where the fun is. Like the second movie, expect a lot of weirdness. Without giving too much away, expect musical numbers, zombies, and gambling.

I also really enjoyed the celebrity cameos. For those wondering, Keanu Reeves's role is more than just a cameo - he actually has a good amount of screen time in the film. Danny Trejo also has a great role, but I won't spoil anything. I also liked Tiffany Haddish's appearance as Tiffany Haddock (get it).

You'll also get to hear the character say some minor swear words. Spongebob says "crappy" twice" while you'll hear Squidward say "frickin".

The summer camp flashbacks I thought were nice. You can tell they were thrown in to build the Kamp Koral spin-off, but I didn't mind them.

Just a nitpick though, according to the movie, Spongebob and Sandy already met before at summer camp, but longtime Spongebob fans will be quick to point out that Sandy and Spongebob actually meet for the first time in episode Tea the Treedome.

Overall, Spongebob fans should enjoy this movie fine. It's an entertaining movie to watch if you want to turn off your brain for an hour and a half.
