Review of The Lego Batman Movie (2017) by Devo-Nc — 19 Feb 2017

When during the opening titles you have the lead character of your movie annoyingly talk to ruin any subtlety, you are setting up the rest of the way for a disaster. Lego Movie I liked, Lego Batman movie has a few moments, but only 2 giggles, no laughs.

The character's weren't likeable, they singled Batman out and made him look selfish and the sappy sentiment along the way was painstaking. It's just a lesser, messier, not as funny and far less memorable version of the lego movie.

I was surprised because I wanted to like this. It's just some lazy over-the-top Saturday morning cartoon turned into big-budget movie where a lot of the humour is cringe-worthy and it's overly loud and obnoxious.

Making Batman be apart of a sort of team in the end didn't really do it for me. They didn't materialize the mythos very well, instead they exploited much of it. A weak entry.
