Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

bigman13-803-859961 The LEGO Batman movie is geared towards kids, but adults can get great mileage out of this movie, too. It mixes the spirit of Batman with with the childhood memory creator that is LEGO. In the movie, Batman finds out that Gotham City doesn't need him anymore, citing the lack of capture of Gotham's baddest villains. The new Commissioner Gordon takes over all crime fighting. Batman then unawaringly adopts somebody from the orphanage, one of his biggest fans who later becomes his sidekick, Robin. The Joker thinks Batman doesn't think he's his greatest enemy, so he sets out to prove that by releasing monsters from the Phantom Zone. Near the end, when the city separates, Batman convinces Joker to help him save the city, and the city of Gotham helps out as well.The movie has the allure of colors of LEGO for the kids, while older adults will appreciate the adult references and callbacks to prior Batman movies. The LEGO Batman Movie is something all ages can enjoy.
The Movie Diorama Barrels of fun, thoroughly entertaining and full of comic relief. If you watched The LEGO Movie and thought "Damn, Batman was so funny he should be in his own film"...well, your prayers have been answered. Another opportunity for LEGO to self-promote their products and start establishing a film franchise. Regardless, I had quite a good time watching this. Batman consistently saves Gotham, has no family or friends and refuses to let the Joker be his greatest enemy. So the Joker decides to ramp up his typical evil schemes by creating an army that consists of cinema's greatest villains. King Kong, Voldemort, Sauron and even Gremlins. It's an exhausting list, which pretty much describes the film. Exhausting. The countless amounts of pop culture references melted my brain. Nearly every line of dialogue is self-referential. Whether it harks back to classic Batman films or shoehorning in Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up"...I just became numb to it all. Yet, somehow...I damn enjoyed this. This iteration of Batman is probably one of the best. Serious whilst hilarious. Cool whilst stupid. Suave whilst badass. Will Arnett's voice work is outstanding. The animation is stupendous and consistent with its predecessor. The plot is lighthearted with a good moral for younger viewers. Remember kids, teamwork saves the day. But it's the smaller finer details that really impressed me. LEGO Bane's voice imitating Tom Hardy. Agent Smiths repeating the same line. Narrating the studio logos. Referencing Adam West's Batman. "You...complete me!". It's fun just picking out certain references that make you chuckle. I do hate animations that utilise multiple annoying pop songs, and for some reason Michael Jackson's "Man in the Mirror" was the most prominent. I get why, but urrrrrgh...why!? The LEGO Batman movie is lighthearted entertainment that everyone will admire, you just might need to take some time to mend you brain afterwards.
stevenrotherforth Lego Batman movie.Probably the biggest joke of all regarding Batman is that it has taken a spoof animation to give us a good movie. Not since Christopher Nolan's epic trilogy has the man in the black cowl delivered. Batman Vs Superman was very average until the Ultimate edition elevated it slightly to pretty good and The Justice Leagues best bits are most likely left on the cutting room floor. However Lego Batman is a hoot right from the opening credits. The film makers even manage to inject a little comedy into the opening logos. Yes this is predominantly a kids film but there's so much more depth to the comedy here that is wasted on the very young. If you're a fan of the Batman universe then you'll need to watch this a dozen times to catch all the jokes that reference Batman's cinematic past. Like the Lego movie that went before it, this movie is a colourful fast paced fun ride that will wash over you leaving you feeling much better inside for watching it. I really can't be negative about this movie. If it isn't your cup of tea then don't watch it. Don't watch a movie you know you won't enjoy and then bitch about it later. This movie deserves no negativity when the film makers have strived to deliver not just a good movie but a great Batman movie.
