The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004)
It's exactly what you think it is. Which means I had a hell of a good time. Why'd I have to grow up with extended toy commercials instead of whacked-out family-safe stuff like this? The ice-cream bender alone is worth the price of admission. (One trivia note that may account for the show -- and thus the movie -- feeling so subversive: SpongeBob is voiced by voice veteran Tom Kenny, whose wife Jill Talley also contributes a few voices. Know where they met? On the Fox sketch program "The Edge" and, later, "Mr. Show".)
Grade: B
