Basically everything about this movie has has been said in the other reviews, so I'll confine mine to two points: 1) The realization that this movie is so good BECAUSE it can be mistaken as one big LEGO advert was a fascinating one to me. They found one extremely satisfying way to make "the" LEGO movie and tell a beautiful story (watch until the end!). Had they done something like "G.I. Joe", "Battleship" or the likes, they would have failed. 2) The way they're using LEGO bricks for EVERYTHING, including and not limited to fire, water, foam, smoke, explosions, laser beams, LED bargraphs, clouds, force fields, motion blur (!) and more, is just mind-boggling and alone warrants watching the film. Everything is awesome!

This movie is successful in more ways than one.The soundtrack and score is awesome, the plot is awesome... EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!!!It's obviously an hour-and-a-half long commercial for LEGOs, but it tries EXTREMELY hard to mask the fact.Emmett (the main character) is a LEGO figure trying to fit in, but everyone ignores him. Y'know... the whole "golden rule" thing.The rest of the plot... you're gonna have to find out through watching the film.Trust me, it's good!!

I watched this movie in 2014 with my uncle in 2014 for my 19th birthday. Weird right? Well that's besides the point. I thought I was going to get a really cool epic awesome movie for kids based off a fun toy with a punch. Too bad there is no punch part. Let's get into why this is the 3rd most overrated animated film of all time. -STORY- The story of Lego Star Wars would have worked on paper. It has the set up. A world built. It's basically about a little Lego man who is too normal for his own good. So one day a Deus Ex Machina in female Lego form comes from the heavens to save the red pilled Legoman and whisk him off to become a hero. A somebody. Meanwhile, the evil President Business or whatever is plotting an evil attack to make the world normal or conformist or something by gluing all the character's feet down on Taco Tuesday. Now the protagonist must save the world by getting a team of unlikely heroes straight out of the Wizard of Oz. But not because they are pop culture references made to sell more Lego toys after the movie is over. They basically save the world by being creative. The challenge here is that Steve is anything but creative. Which is funny. That is basically the only funny part for anyone over the age of 11 because the rest of the story seams to not have very funny jokes. The story basically has the characters win by default. After all if I forgot to tell you, this is a chosen one story which is a dumb cliche and is probably written ironically, (just like every piece of dialogue in this film) The conflict between President Business and Steve boil down to daddy issues. I'm not even joking that the resolution happens to be that the real life son has a dead beat dad played by the hilarious HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH FUnny manchild Will Ferrell who has his own creation of Legoland or Legotopia or whatever. The dad turns out to be president Beezwax and wants to glue down the world for perfection. But the two realize they can be creative together. None of the things could be explained in this film other than Legos. No science. Just pop culture references. Honestly, if I watched it the second time. Maybe I'd truly love it. Because as of now I don't. I'm sorry but this movie has a mediocre story. Almost any Pixar movie is better. 5/10-CHARACTERS- Steve is a character that is nice but too Mickey Mouse for his own good. He is blah. So he must transform and know the truth. Now which of the 2 things do you think he does? That's right he learns the truth. But he does like I said become more creative even though any other character could do better. Wyldestyle- She is cool, probably the best character. She is a hot goth chick Lego. Batman- The film's sweetheart. But really he isn't even that funny. He's actually trying to hard to be childish that it isn't funny by pointing out the tropes of what Batman does best. I hate the cynical irony it has. It's like 2000's making fun of the 1980's and not showing any love. He does cool stuff. That's it. He's annoying.Unikitty- She's a funny little sidekick that is too cute for her own good that it's annoying.Vitruvius- The oracle voiced by Morgan Freeman and it's HAHAHAHAHAHADHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Awesome le Epic. Not not really.President Beezwax- He is supposed to be a menacing villian but he just like 90% of the characters comes off as childish. Good Cop Bad Cop- The main antagonist of the story. He get's his good side taken away. He's pretty cool for a lego. 7/10 I think you'll like them-ANIMATION- In terms of art this movie is truely amazing. I've never seen a studio try to Mimic childhood stop motion animation movies through computers. It was so amazing. The lighting effects. Every location looked unique. That's all it really had going for it.-SOUND- As I said before the dialogue is trying to hard to be childish ironically. But the Sound is unrivaled. I can't stop singing that stupid song everything is awesome. -FINAL VIRDICT I couldn't get into to the Lego Movie. Try as I might, but I feel that I'd rather play with Legos than watch a badly written film about them. At least it's better than the Emoji movie.

I went into The Lego Movie expecting drivel, I thought it'd be alike the DC ones but without the DC element to appease me. Thankfully I was wrong, way wrong.This HUGELY acclaimed multi award winning Oscar nominated feature length animated lego movie is an entertaining roller coaster ride for all ages.With a vast cast of overpaid Hollywood stars led by Chris Pratt we see original Lego characters team with the likes of Batman, Gandalf, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and more to foil an evil plot.The first thing that struck me is how good it all looks, considerably better than every other Lego movie I've seen from the flow of the animation to the stunning lighting effects.Okay it is pretty dumb, but it's dumb fun and thats okay by me.Silly but with enough to keep parents entertained this is a roaring accomplishment. I'm not sure I'd consider it Oscar-worthy, but then again most Oscar winners I don't consider deserving.The Lego Movie is a lot of fun and has reaffirmed my faith in them.The Good:Looks incredibleLot of funThe Bad:Still pretty silly in placesMore than a slight sprinkle of Hollywood excess and stupidityThings I Learnt From This Movie:The double decker couch actually sounds quite neatWiping your bum with a hook for a hand is really hardIt's not expected for a person to marry a marshmallow
