Rated: PG
Running time: 100
The Lego Movie with my father. The movie
is about a Lego minifigure named Emmett (voiced by Chris Pratt, Zero Dark Thirty) who is just like
everyone else, but through a strange set of circumstances found himself to be
on a mission to save the universe from the evil Lord Business (voiced by Will
Ferrell). Lord Business plans to release the Kragle and destroy the world.
Emmett’s adventure takes him to the wild west, a sprawling city, the Medieval
ages, and a massive office building.
The characters are really
enjoyable and they are from all of the different Lego licenses like Star Wars
and Batman. I personally loved the movie even though I thought that it was
aimed at younger kids. I believe that my father liked it as well and it had a
great overarching moral, that no one should squander a great creative mind.
The way that the directors (Chris
Miller and Phil Lord) incorporated the amazing animation with the traditional
Lego stop motion was incredible and made the movie so much cooler.
I have heard it called the new Toy Story and I wholeheartedly disagree.
With Toy Story all of the love and
enjoyment came after and because of the movie, but with Legos the fans are already
there and in large numbers. This will just keep the fire burning and continue
the love of Legos into the next generation. It was to quote the movie
"awesome".
