The film's central conflict and its resolution are primarily focused on universal, apolitical themes of friendship, teamwork, and the power of imagination, rather than explicitly promoting a specific political ideology.

Its narrative is a straightforward comedic adventure that does not engage with or critique traditional identities, nor does it incorporate explicit DEI themes into its central plot.
The film features Sandy Cheeks, who transforms into a giant, super-strong squirrel called The Rodent. In this form, she engages in and wins physical confrontations against multiple male pirate opponents, using her enhanced physical abilities.
The film does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on the established characters and their adventure, without exploring aspects of queer identity or relationships.
The film features established characters from the SpongeBob SquarePants series, all of whom retain their original canonical genders. New characters introduced in the movie do not have prior canonical genders to swap.
