Audiences Wish 'The Bob's Burgers Movie' Kept The Singing On The Side

Last Friday, The Bob’s Burgers Movie officially hit theaters.

With the voice of the animated cast reprising their role for the featured film, the Belcher family has come to the big screen. The synopsis reads:

“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 as they try to get back behind the counter.”

On Rotten Tomatoes, their latest adventure has an 86% critic rating and an audience score of 95%.

The verified audience reviews saw a plethora of five-star reviews.  One user named Joshua Wott wrote, “I loved this movie so much, it was a 2 hour episodes of Bob's Burgers with so many references to things that happen during the show.”

Katie wrote, “Absolutely perfect! The jokes, music and dancing were all on point. A must watch for any fan of the show.”

John wrote, “If you're a fan of the show, you will love this. if you've never seen the show, you'll still love the movie.”

One user named Kron wrote, “My son and I loved the movie. Funny, entertaining, and fun. Our only complaint is that it wasn't long enough. Also, wish they had more of Wagstaff, kids at school, and Mrs. Labonz.”

Ginger wrote, “It was beautifully animated, well-written, and made me feel like I was coming home to see an old friend. If you like the show, you'll love the movie—trust me.”

One user called Himura4Life wrote, “Terrific family movie! The Belchers do it again! They truly are one of the most relatable families in television, they pull you in with their humour and keep you there with their love and growth. Looking forward to the sequel! Super Recommended!!”

However, the movie failed to please all fans. Many criticized the amount of singing in the movie.

Jim H wrote, “Too sing songs, plot was too predictable. A couple of good jokes, but mostly boring. We were tether disappointed.”

Christie wrote, “I liked the storyline but there was way more singing than I expected or I’d like there to be. It almost seemed like it was being used to fill in empty spaces in the movie.”

Ann M wrote, “Cute. Nothing to write home about. There are great elements and writing, as expected, but it's hard to translate the show format into a movie.”

Julia wrote, “Neither good nor bad, Bob’s Burgers soldiers on, this time on the big screen. It has moments that capture the original charm of the series, but it’s also overwhelmed with tired plot lines already explored in the TV show. Wait until it comes to Hulu, unless you’re a diehard fan.”

Although it might not be scooping up the numbers that “Top Gun: Maverick” is scoring at the box office, it looks like The Bob’s Burgers Movie is still a movie for fans of all ages to enjoy... as long as you don't mind the singing.
