Mike's Review: I wanted so much to really like this movie, but that didn't happen. Don't get me wrong...the amount of time and talent it must have taken to animate this movie was incredible. The actual Lego effects and detail were top notch. The part of the movie I didn't like was the last 20 minutes of it when they introduced the "human" element of the story. I think this movie should have stayed in the Lego world and not have crossed the bridge to incorporate real people playing with the Lego's. When it was revealed that the whole story was about a little boy playing with his fathers Lego's, well that just killed it for me. I can see why they did it, Lego's are all about being played with, but I went into this movie thinking that it was just going to be a cute Lego adventure, not a father and son bonding while playing with Lego's.
When my 4 year old daughter gave me her review on the movie she said she didn't like it when all the Lego's broke apart and she also didn't like the mean bad guy. I don't think this is one she will be seeing again anytime soon. However she does like The Lego Movie, Lego sets of Lego's to build.
Best Scene: There were some cute scenes. I thought the hyper-drive scene was a nice touch, as well as the Duplo bricks invading at the end the city in the end.
Mike's Rating: Matinee. The Lego animation is worth seeing on the big screen.
