the Bob'S Burgers Movie Review Roundup

We were looking forward to the Belcher's Cinematic debut last year, but it was hit with a year's delay and a season renewal instead. After another small but disappointing delay, we are finally at the main table, ready to chow down on the main course. The Bob's Burgers movie is out today but is it a tasty dish? Here's the review roundup: 

AV CLUB (Alison Foreman)
'Seeing Bob’s Burgers’ brightest elements shine on a big screen feels spectacular, with the level of detail and lighting used in its keyed-up animation style making Ocean Avenue feel not only more cinematic, but also more real. A burger with everything on it (Little King Trashmouth in the alley! Ghostboy graffiti on the walls!), The Bob’s Burgers Movie serves up an adventure that, yes, you’ve eaten before, figuratively speaking. But it’s not every weekend the Belchers get to be movie stars—so why not try this, the Burger of The Day?'

EMPIRE MAGAZINE (Beth Webb)
'Amped up for the big screen while maintaining its sense of heart and with lashings of charm and gentle comedy, Bob’s Burgers proves more than worthy of the feature treatment.'

THE WRAP (​Karama Horne)
'With a runtime of just under two hours, “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” feels like an extended episode of the series with a musical number that missed its cue. Definitely leaning towards the darker humor end of the comedy spectrum, fans will get a kick out of all of the easter eggs and callbacks. And newcomers will enjoy the animated movie for what it is, a fun summer movie adventure with a Scooby-Doo-like mystery thrown in.'

VARIETY (AMY NICHOLSON)
“The Bob’s Burgers Movie” is also remarkable in what it abandons. Let other movies chase photo-realistic animation. It remains stubbornly 2D as if to prove that looks matter less than jokes that come fast and friendly like a parade of puppies. And while there’s slight moments of emotional recognition — among them, Linda’s acknowledgement that it can be exhausting flogging a smile — it’s a relief that none of them congeal into a life lesson. Lately, most cartoons accost audiences with a therapy session, or a primer on the ABCS of global fascism.'

INDIE WIRE (Kate Erbland)
'The film is rife with the puns and gags for which the show is known, although some of the film’s best jokes are delivered entirely straight-faced, like when one supporting character randomly shares that he’s never eaten a meal outside before, or the wharf’s celebratory anniversary banner reads, “80 years of this!” It’s a charmer — let’s just put a bit more spice on the next one.'

IGN (VIDEO REVIEW)

​In the end, the film amassed a critical score of 88% from 97 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Honestly, like South Park and The Simpson that came before it, the critics opinions on these film should never be any major factor. These movies are (well, usually) a love letter to the die-hards.
