Paramount Home Entertainment presents a film written and directed by Tim Hill. Rated PG (for rude humor, some thematic elements, and mild language). Running time: 91 minutes. Available now on Paramount+ and on demand.
“Do I smell a road trip?” SpongeBob asks near the beginning of the film.
“That could be my breath,” his best friend Patrick replies. If you think that’s funny, welcome aboard. If you don’t? Boy have you wandered into the wrong movie review.
The movie, now streaming on Paramount+ (formerly CBS All Access) and on demand, starts with an introduction to Bikini Bottom and its residents for the uninitiated. There’s SpongeBob (voice of Tom Kenny), of course, along with the sweetly stupid Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke), constant whiner Squidward (Rodger Bumpass), greedy boss Mr. Krabs (Clancy Brown) and scientist squirrel Sandy (Carolyn Lawrence).
