Dalbert Pringle Let me tell ya - Had one more violent explosion taken place in this 70-minute, LEGO, Batman movie - Then - I think that my brain would have probably exploded, too (out of sheer exasperated boredom), right along with it.I mean - Talk about explosion overload! - Like - Is this really what the screenwriters of this kiddies' film thought was all that the viewer wanted to see?And, speaking about these LEGO superhero characters - For such pipsqueak, little toys - They certainly all had mighty big, over-inflated egos. (I guess that accounts for all of the explosions - They had to vent some of that egocentricity, somehow)Anyway - IMO - Since LEGO Batman's story truly lacked any real substance - The best that I can say about this juvenile film is that it was just "OK", and that's all.
DBLurker Every single scene had muted audio, drowned out by a loud music score in the background.Apart from that, the movie is just unfunny. Even the usual Lego gags are used only 2-3 times. Most of the movie just shows Batman as a jerk to Robin while being right at the same time. So not really sure what the point of the whole thing was.While we're at it, why are the Legos moving fluidly anyway? Wasn't the whole point of "Lego" movies and games was to use Lego blocks as a joke? Characters don't move stiff-like, they move smooth. Just looks meh.Terrible audio, terrible script.. not even good for kids.
Fuzzy Wuzzy And, meanwhile - Back at the Batcave.... Batman kicks some serious butt (with a little help from all his super-friends, of course)....Even though LEGO Batman's story of over-the-top, superhero crime-fighting pretty much went over the same, old ground, I still enjoyed this particular CG offering a helluva lot more than I did the likes of Christopher Nolan's live-action "Dark Knight" movie-series. I really did.Besides LEGO Batman containing some often-humorous one-liners (nicely delivered by both Batman & Superman), I also got quite a delightful kick out of the LEGO-look of all the characters.From having some very amusing facial expressions, to their squat stature and stubby legs, I'm actually looking forward to checking out other LEGO movies once they become available through my city's library system.Of all the superhero characters featured in this picture's ultra-violent, fast-paced story, it was Flash, in his brief, but pivotal appearance, who I liked the most.
leonblackwood Review: This movie isn't in the same league as the Lego Movie, which was proper funny, but there are some funny moments and the storyline was much better than some of the earlier Batman movies that came out. It was great to see all of the Justice League together, especially Superman who made me made laugh when he teamed up with Batman and the Joker and Lex Luther were great as the baddies. The director chose to use a really dumb Robin which added to the wit of the film but I was hoping that Batman was going to be as funny as he was in the Lego Movie. Anyway, if your a fan of the Lego Movie then this animated movie is definitely worth a watch and the extras on the DVD were a great bonus. Watchable!Round-Up: The animation in this movie wasn't that great, which is probably due to the small budget compared to the Lego Movie, but the characters do move in true Lego form which was well put together. Personally, I think that the thing that has worked with this Lego franchise is the fact that it doesn't take itself seriously and most of the characters are quite funny in there own way. Batman cracked me up in the Lego Movie, which is why I ran out and added this movie to my rental list. In some ways, this is more of an traditional Batman movie were he's trying to save the world by taking on all of the baddies by himself, but he soon realises that he can't do it alone. I recommend this movie to people who are into there animated movies with some of the most popular comic heroes in the world. 5/10
