Description: When a sinkhole in front of Bob’s Burgers threatens the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer, Bob and Linda try to keep their business going, while the kids attempt to save the restaurant by solving a mystery.

Review: The biggest challenge in making a feature film from a television series is making sure to strike the right balance between offering the regular viewers what they are used to and getting the new audience into a world unfamiliar to them. The makers of “The Bob’s Burgers Movie” took a successful approach: launching into a story without any explanation that both parties will have a great time with.

Bob and Linda are keeping themselves and their three children afloat by running a struggling burger joint. They are tight on money and it is getting tense, whether they will be able to make the monthly lone payment. The obstacle that can’t be solved in twenty minutes this time: a giant sink hole appears in front of their restaurant and a dead body is found in is. With no one able to access their restaurant, Bob and Linda have to find a way to make money and Tina, Gene and Louise are trying to solve the mystery of the dead body.

“The Bob’s Burgers Movie” is not a movie that goes for depth, but I never expected that or want that. It’s a fun, entertaining, hilarious film, that will be a joy to watch for both fans of the series and those just introduced to it. Personally, the mystery that the kids are trying to solve, was my favorite part of the film.

Rating: 3,5/ 5
