'The Bob's Burgers Movie' is funny. Cartoons are not my thing, and this movie is in the style of a basic-style cartoon, not those fancy up-to-date animated films. With that being said out of the way, you will find yourself laughing at this movie more often than you think you will going in.
'The Bob's Burgers Movie' is an animated, big-screen, musical comedy-mystery-adventure based on the long-running Emmy®-winning series. The story begins when a ruptured water main creates an enormous sinkhole right in front of Bob's Burgers, blocking the entrance indefinitely and ruining the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer. While Bob and Linda struggle to keep the business afloat, the kids try to solve a mystery that could save their family's restaurant. As the dangers mount, these underdogs help each other find hope and fight to get back behind the counter, where they belong.
All of the characters play well off each other. The good thing with a movie based off a TV show means all the chemistry is there. Since everyone has been working with each other for years, they know how to play off each other and make a good joke, extra funny.
It is rare today to watch a movie based on a TV show and not fall into any issues. Well I will say 'The Bob's Burgers Movie' is that rare case. You will not find yourself lost or not knowing what is going on, even if you did not watch any of the TV show. You will also get all the jokes. There maybe some inside jokes, but it all seemed funny to me.
While sometimes you'll get lost in the film about the realism, you will need to just remember it really is a cartoon. So they can do different things that a live action film can't do and get away with. This really just adds to the funniness of the film. You will be laughing at some of the stupid stuff happening on screen. Just let yourself go and enjoy this film. It's a good laugh and a good time.
Make sure you stay through all the credits. While I'll say it is not absolutely necessary, it's a funny little clip that will make fans of the show laugh a little.
'The Bob's Burgers Movie' is in theaters on May 27th, 2022.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
