A brand new SpongeBob SquarePants movie has just dropped on Netflix.

In “Plankton: The Movie,” our title antagonist finds himself in an unexpected alliance with his adversary, SpongeBob, when his artificial spouse, Karen, plots global domination.

Today, the movie became available worldwide on Netflix – if you’re searching for an enjoyable film for your weekend, then you’ve found it!

The film, being the fifth installment in the series, has been generally well-received thus far. According to Ferdosa Abdi from ScreenRant, it’s a “treasure” that both loyal fans of the initial series and newer fans will appreciate deeply.

In simpler terms, Tara Brady from The Irish Times believes that franchise enthusiasts will enjoy catching another sight of the unconventional hillbilly family led by Plankton.

Furthermore, there’s ample opportunity for classic SpongeBob shenanigans. It turns out that family squabbles can be quite entertaining for everyone! Here’s to “Squidward: The Movie“, she said with excitement.

In their three-star appraisal, The Guardian described it as enjoyable, but critic Jesse Hassenger contended that it frequently comes across as an extended, almost nine-part speech instead of a genuine film.

Following the success of “Sandy Cheeks Movie” in Bikini Bottom, slated for 2024, we’ll have “Plankton: The Movie”. This blockbuster animation had audiences captivated when it premiered the previous summer.

In this movie, we join SpongeBob SquarePants and Sandy Cheeks on their exciting journey to Texas, where they aim to rescue Bikini Bottom after it’s been removed from the sea.

Previously, during the summer, it was disclosed by Tommy Kenny (reprising his role as Plankton) that he has portrayed his character to be on the autism spectrum.

At the 2024 Motor City Comic Con held in Detroit, he reminisced about an encounter with a fan suspected to be on the autism spectrum, who posed the question if SpongeBob SquarePants might have autism.

Tom Kenny shared with the crowd that the character SpongeBob SquarePants is also portrayed as being on the autism spectrum. This was the first time he had been asked this specific question. A person who appeared to be on the autism spectrum approached him and inquired, “Tom Kenny, I have a question about SpongeBob: Is he autistic?

In response to the fan’s query, he casually mentioned, “Indeed, it’s a yes! Here’s an interesting thought: Just like that ability is his superpower, yours is too in its own unique way.

Plankton: The Movie is streaming now on Netflix.
