I know that the spell doesn't get a save. However, let's say you just blanket a wide area with 10 sq foot cubes not necessarily trying to get the right height for a tall opponent. What happens? Technically, they bob at the apex of the particular square. But, let's say you have a level 14 caster. That's 140 sq. ft. of 10 feet high reversed gravity. For most medium creatures, that's bobbing up and down. But, large and larger creatures are still affected. Just how is what I'm curious about.

Well, a Large creature should be bobbing up and down 5' off the ground, and should probably be capable of "crawling" across the ground by pushing similar to a levitated creature in touch with a ceiling (reach and intelligence permitting).
You cannot move the recipient horizontally, but the recipient could clamber along the face of a cliff, for example, or push against a ceiling to move laterally (generally at half its base land speed).
For larger creatures... Well, reach wouldn't be an issue at Gargantuan, you would just be weightless. At Colossal, more of you is in regular gravity than reversed gravity. I might give a balance check against the save DC to avoid moving at half rate - after all, your weight (and thus friction) is much less than usual.
But, at minimum, if they can reach the floor they should be allowed to move like a levitating creature, I would think.
Edit: This is basically a no save disable for pretty much all Oozes (and other mindless stuff), as I doubt that they would think to "crawl" with pseudopods (or whatever they have)... Cool!
