Koral Kamp: Undergraduates at SpongeBob (Paramount Plus, 3:01 am, complete part one of season one, six events): There is much that can be said about it Kamp Koral, a show that could have been generated and created against him all the best to the late Stephen Hillenburg, although the truth is present and past SpongeBob writers working on the exhibition are on loan strong pedigree. Controversy to one side, this SpongeBob SquarePants spin-off is not as bad as yarn. In putting younger versions of the cast in a general underwater summer camp, the show manages to push a little more than a reference to its predecessors, going engaged in some very funny, unobtrusive pockets (including a nice piece where the spear caught in SpongeBob’s net somehow transforms into nothing but slippery.) The elastic, frantic 3D animation can be awesome in spots, but it’s very attractive overall, especially in an evening program, which has cinematic levels of light quality. two.

Again, there are trippy series, a live-action section, pop songs, and popular tongue-in-mouth cameos. The misunderstanding of SpongeBob and his friends and his freedom is enough to keep more than 200 TV shows going again, but filling a feature, even one that is only 80 minutes without credits, is put a lot of pressure. ” Read the rest of Ignatiy Vishnevetsky’s film review.
