Nice effects though.

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

I don't usually review Spongebob episodes, but I have something extra special to say about this one. I almost expected a lot of complaints about how there are other episodes like Stuck in the Wringer and Someone's in the Kitchen With Sandy about how the citizens of Bikini Bottom were bigger jerks than Plankton or One Coarse Meal when Plankton was sympathetic and Mr. Krabs became a lot worse than him, but none of that ruined this episode for me or Mr. Enter. In my experience, you can have a positive episode pretending that other terrible episodes don't exist as long as you have a decent plot and it's not a moment of hypocrticial heartwarming like Family Guy's Screams of Silence had with Glenn Quagmire, and it makes me really sad to realize how hypocritical it is to worry about his sister as a person/woman when he treats other women like objects. In contrast to that episode, Forget-Me-Not was a good Family Guy episode that had a decent plot, so it was okay to pretend that other terrible episodes where Peter was a bad friend to Brian didn't exist.The Bikini Bottomites are a lot nicer and caring to each other like they were in Pre-Hibernation Week when they were searching for Spongebob. If you bring your A-game with characters and story, only the most negative of reviewers would let what has happened get in the way of what should and did happen here. In many ways, this is the opposite to Miracle on Evergreen Terrace because it doesn't come out of nowhere when nice people turn mean on Christmas and there's another real bad guy causing this. Spongebob also had a good reason for being immune to the jerktonium. He was too kind to be turned bad by it. I actually found the plot of this episode to be better than Christmas Who because it was less boring, and Sandy and Plankton both appear in It's a Spongebob Christmas a lot more than Christmas Who. There are a couple of plotholes like Santa Claus falling for the jerktonium and the Spongebob robot, but I can forgive this episode for those because Plankton got what he deserved at the end. If you want to be nice and get the Krabby Patty formula for Christmas, use the opposite of jerktonium to make yourself good. If only Miracle on Evergreen Terrace had another song with a message like this about not being a jerk, it might have been nearly as good as this one.

Seriously, this was surprisingly charming. With the series becoming so mean-spirited ever since season 5 started, this was kind of uplifting. Here, there's a reason for the characters to act like jerks, well, except for Patrick who's still kind of a jerk even without having eaten Plankton's fruitcake. The songs are quite good and actually add to the plot, unlike Atlantis Squarepantis where every single number except for maybe the first one was a complete waste of time and effort. The humour is actually good and while Squidward does get tormented at one point, at least it's the film's antagonist doing it and not one of the protagonists, who the episode would likely want us to believe is in the right. The only downside is that, honestly, I wish this had come out earlier. This special more-or-less pretends that every episode leading up to it never happened. It feels more like something you'd expect from season 2 as the jerkish behaviour of the citizens is implied to be out-of- character for them despite a boatload of recent episodes proving otherwise. Also, the animations are really good, and even the Patchy segment wasn't anywhere near as painful to sit through as they usually are. All-in-all, for Spongebob fans, I think this is worth checking out, especially if you've been as annoyed by recent episodes as I've been. Seriously, if you haven't seen it, give it a go.

This was the first Spongebob Squarepants episode ever to air on CBS, which is very exciting because that means we can add one more channel to our list for catching Spongebob reruns on! Not so sure I like the claymation style Christmas special for Spongebob, because there are many Spongebob antics that cannot be shown through claymation. However, Spongebob is wonderful as ever in his holiday adventure for the young and old!!! Bound to be a classic that CBS will show year after year. Join SpongeBob Squarepants, Patrick Starr, Squidard Tentacles, Sand Cheeks, Mr Krabs, Plankton and the rest of the Spongebob crew on their Christmas adventure through Bikini Bottom!

I'm 13, and I love sponge bob very much! Though "It's A Spongebob Christmas!" was quite disappointing in my opinion. What I love about sponge bob is the random plot lines - I hate things where there is a crisis and the main character always seems to win somehow. Spongebob Christmas was like that. It didn't feel like sponge bob! The claymation only made it worse. I also didn't like the fact it didn't have the comedy that sponge bob usually has, and they always seem to sing for no apparent reason... Though the only good thing about it was the claymation was quite sweet and I like the fact that sponge bob was an actual sponge. I think sponge bob Christmas was aimed for littler children as my 2 year old brother was sat watching it until the end!
