Media Author Review
United States
The Hollywood Reporter
"The result is an animated adventure that's funnier than 'Shark Tale' and more charming than 'The Polar Express'"
United States
Miami Herald
"Rarely delivers anything above and beyond the scope of the series."
United States
LA Weekly
"The movie is driven almost entirely by its exhilaratingly subversive characters."
United States
The New York Times
"It is a marvel of unleashed childishness, like a birthday party on the edge of spinning out of control." 
United States
Los Angeles Times
"Its instinctive, unstoppable cheerfulness can be, as all those millions of viewers have found, something of a tonic if you're in the mood."
United States
Philadelphia Inquirer
"The trippy creation of onetime marine biologist Stephen Hillenburg, SpongeBob is a cockeyed optimist toiling at the bottom of the fast-food chain."
United States
AV Club
"It's all innocuous, forgettable fun, but it's firmly aimed at those who find underwear endlessly funny."
United States
New York Post
"Full of action and silliness that will delight rug rats, but it's still hip and absurd enough to entertain grown-ups, too."
United States
The New York Times
"The film, which is as economically made as it is primitively animated, ambles from adventure to adventure, taking nothing seriously, not even itself."
United States
Chicago Sun-Times
"Assuming that few members of SpongeBob's primary audience are reading this (or can read), all I can tell you is, the movie is likely to be more fun than you expect." 
United States
New York Daily News
"It won't cure the ills of the world, but it doesn't need to. 'The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie' is adorable in its own spongy way."
United States
Variety
"Possesses charm, as well as visual and musical appeal, on the bigscreen. But as with many short-form TV entities when sextupled in length, "SpongeBob" proves more palatable as scrumptious fast food than full-scale repast."
