that truly shines in this movie. The return to 2D animation and the focus on classic SpongeBob humor were welcomed by fans. The film manages to capture the essence of the show's earlier seasons, and the underwater world of Bikini Bottom is as quirky and fun as ever.
However, the superhero and 3D segments, while not as bad as initially feared, felt somewhat disconnected from the rest of the movie. It seemed like an attempt to appeal to a broader audience, which may have been driven by marketing considerations rather than creative intent.
Overall, "SpongeBob: A Hero Out of Water" is a mixed bag. It successfully brings back the charm of the original series in parts but also introduces elements that feel out of place. Still, it's a decent addition to the SpongeBob franchise and a step in the right direction after some less well-received seasons of the show.
