Goofs

Plankton claims that they don't make clothes in his size. However, at the end of 'Sleepy Time', he's shown in a nightgown. This is a goof in itself as earlier in 'Sleepy Time', Plankton is shown to be naked when he wakes with a start.

User Reviews

Mind Expanding

I'm almost 100% sure this movie was made to watch while tripping, given that for about 10 to 20 min of the movie you just sit there and ask yourself, "WTF going on?".

This is definitely a movie that can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike. If you're too good for the ridiculous humor that is SpongeBob then you should probably lock yourself in your house and keep your buzz kill personality with you.

The 3D visuals were surprisingly good. In fact I would say it's some of the best I've seen. I definitely recommend watching this movie in 3D.

Get up and go watch this movie and just let loose. You and your kids will love it. In fact you don't even need the kids, cause you'll love it. Life's too short to be boring! Don't let those critics who think they're too sophisticated keep you from seeing the movie because deep down inside we're all immature! ; )
