It must be tempting to take a long-running show, especially an animated one, and make a movie or two from it. The potential profits can certainly be greater, but the work in making, at the minimum, a 90-minute movie is daunting. From the studio’s perspective, if the show has been on the air for a decade or so then audiences, especially those younger ones will forgive an hour and a half that’s subpar. While it might be a slog for parents, they should know better and simply allow the kids to experience some ‘big kid’ time as they see said film for themselves. That’s the way that audiences should look at The Spongebob Movie: Sponge On The Run. Those in the audience who are six to eight years old will be mildly amused and those who are nine and up will find a couple of things to laugh at but will be bored overall.
