Review of The Lego Batman Movie (2017) by Chris H — 18 Feb 2017

After coming off a successful Lego movie that captured the hearts of even the highest of doubters, Lego attempts to make a spinoff of a character from the first movie. Normally spinoff movies are less than stellar, but this one packs as much imagination into a movie as a 5 year old with a brand new set of Legos.

Without spoiling anything there are a few surprises throughout the movie that make this movie deviate from other movies with DC ties and it is not only very creative, it's so hilarious! But perhaps the biggest surprise for me is this movie isn't just a comedy for kids, it also has a lot of heart and a good plot. Clearly this wasn't just some spinoff just for monetary gain.

All in all, if you like batman, know a lot or a little about him and you enjoyed the first Lego movie, you will love this movie. It's designed for kids but it's done so well anyone can enjoy it. I highly recommend anyone and everyone check it out.
