"Not as good" is not the same as "not good at all," however, and this film definitely contains a lot to like and even love. The thematic backbone of this story, namely, is one of the more admirable and unique features in play, featuring some genuinely effective heart and a truly affecting message that should strike an emotional chord with most viewers. The humor, while definitely nowhere near as polished and indelible as the first film, is still worthy of note, featuring a couple of real banger jokes and a multitude of other relatively funny ones. The music even gets a bit of an updo this time, utilizing the decidedly hilarious musical talents of one Jon Lajoie to its added benefit. Again, none of this is particularly better than the original, but still valid at most. Just don't expect lightning to strike the same place it did back in 2014.… Expand

The sequel to the Lego Movie is cute. It has some good ideas, but what made the first one so good was the idea of the unknown and the breaking of the 4th wall. This film takes that little bit of magic and uses it a little too much.

However, there are some negative things to point out. In the first movie, the father was portrayed in a generally positive way. This time however, they painted him as a distant father, who was always missing. Why is that? There were some moments also that I felt they were trying to emphasize political correctness in this movie. But to be fair, even with that it was done in a fairly tasteful way.

A more negative point for me were some details that made the movie more childish than the first one, which does not exactly fit the fact that the children have grown since then. Also, it did not meet the same quality of humor from the first movie. That is why I cannot give it a higher rating than 6.… Expand

While not actually bad, it's so far behind the original and the Lego Batman Movie, it feels a lot weaker than it actually is.

Would MUCH rather watch those two again than watch this.

But I gotta say that this thankfully still had most of the fun and charm of the first film, albeit a few drawbacks (there's a lot more singing in this one, and I never was big into musicals personally), and there's even one song that contains lyrics about it being so catchy that it gets stuck in your head, which I definitely wasn't crazy about. The rest of the film, however, was highly imaginative and colorful as expected, even if it does also contain some somewhat ridiculous moments of toys/inanimate objects defying the laws of gravity, physics, etc. But overall, it'll likely prove enjoyable enough for Lego fans and fans of some of their previous films thus far.… Expand

It takes place 5 years after the events of first film where a once colorful Lego as turned into a baron wasteland during the invasions done by the Sistar System. Leaving the people to become harden and serious from the devastation all except Emmet voiced by Chris Pratt who still believes that there is still something positive in this wasteland. Until 5 of his friends, Wyldstyle voiced by Elizebeth Banks, Batman voiced by Will Arnett, Unikitty voiced by Alison Brie, Metalbeard voiced by Nick Offerman, and Benny voiced by Charlie day, are kidnapped by General Mayhem voiced by Stephanie Beatriz and brought to the Sistar System leaving Emmet to pursue them. I thought the first Lego Movie was a good film but I didn't think it needed a sequel so I didn't expect much from this film but man was I wrong. This flick is fantastic with a story that keeps you engaged from begging to end. All the returning characters are highlighted excellently in this film, they even throw in some references to the Lego Batman movie. The comedy is nice and balanced. The new characters fit in nicely especially Queen Whatevera Wa'nabi voiced by Tiffany Haddish a form changing queen who is always more than she appears to be. But the best part of the film by far are the songs. They're are perfectly composed and paced to the point that there really isn't a bad one in the bunch. However the film does have one issue with that of it's message. You see film tries to have multiple messages, that of the relationship between siblings and that of growing up losing that childhood whimsy. Both messages are fine on there own but putting them together can cause the problem of feeling like there's something out of place, because inevitably one message will out way the other. If I where the film makers I would have just focused on the relationship between siblings message, since that would fit with what the first film did. In conclusion though I can't say this film is perfect I did find my self thoroughly entertained through it's entire running time, so if you've seen the first film than sit down and enjoy the show.… Expand

Though it's not quite as good as the its predecessor, Lego Movie 2: the Second Part is a very enjoyable film. I'd put it in a tie with Lego Batman for the second best installment in the franchise.

This is a natural progression from the firstThough it's not quite as good as the its predecessor, Lego Movie 2: the Second Part is a very enjoyable film. I'd put it in a tie with Lego Batman for the second best installment in the franchise.

This is a natural progression from the first one as we see LEGOs go against DUPLO and the girl audience-style LEGOs. Considering that they're the two other biggest brands of LEGOs, it just makes sense. It is also an interesting viewpoint on conflicting styles on imagination based on age and gender.

Though you couldn't really top the surprising twist from the first film, this one does contain a couple pretty effective reveals which like the first really support the emotional beats of the film.

LM2 is also a bit of a light musical. Due to the success of "Everything is Awesome," they added on the songs here and they work pretty well. The two best musical numbers hands down go to the ones sung by Tiffany Haddish's Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi. The comedian/actress is a surprisingly good singer. The songs are even catchier than the "Catchy Song," which was the movie's attempt to match "EiA." (I mean it's catchy but only short-term catchy.)

The movie looks great. The new universe of the Systar System is really well designed and colorful. The scenes that take place in the "other dimenson" are really well lit and have a very 80's/90's feel to them. The constantly shape-shifting Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi is an impressive bit of animation. (Though it still doesn't match the amount of effort that went into the form-changing Greedy scene from Raggedy Ann & Andy: a Musical Adventure. Check it out, it's really impressive.)

As mentioned, this doesn't quite match the first, which in fairness is a high bar to reach considering how everything worked almost flawlessly. There are many funny jokes here, but not the rapid succession that were in the first. Pacing isn't as fluid either. The likes of Benny, Ultrakitty, and Metalbeard are present throughout and have some nice lines, but they really don't contribute much. Basically, the writers were trying to include the whole cast, but since they were telling a more personal story between leads Emmett and Wildfire, they didn't seem to know what to do with everyone else.

Nitpicks aside this is a film that I think the whole family will like.… Expand

The rest of the cast is very funny, and the animation overall is beautiful as ever, as we get much more landscapes and we see even more of this Lego world.

It is full of clichés which it often sends up but in a similar manner each time and plus, this doesn't exactly excuse this. It was OK until the beginning of the third act in which it tries far too hard to tie the fake world to reality and in the process breaking the illusion and creating a lot of confusing plot holes and breaking the rules of its universe. There are still a good number of decent jokes but they are all very similar. Also, I love Richard Ayoade but voice acting is not his calling, and the same with Tiffany Haddish, who is for some bizarre reason in literally everything. Oh, and the songs are pretty rubbish. They tried too hard to make another "Everything is Awesome". Too much of the humour consists of different levels of being meta, also adding to the confusion of the movie. I was underwhelmed, and the third act was far too drawn out. The vast majority of real life scenes should've been cut entirely, the number in the first movie was great. The cinematography in the live action scenes was pretty pisspoor but probably because it is an animation studio, which is why I think there are too many of these. It does have redeeming features though and the humour keeps it afloat. I still think this far it has been overrated.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I didn't think it could be done. I never thought The Lego Movie 2 would be better than the original. Boy, was I wrong! This movie is better by at least 37 miles! The story was amazingly well crafted. The returning characters never lost their charm, even after 5 years, and the new characters redefine the word "charm", at least for me. The music, again, was phenomenal. The jokes are even better than the original. I never mentioned this in my review of the original, but the animation is actually pretty realistic. If you didn't already know that it was CG, you would think it was stop motion. But it isn't. That is awesome. And the ending was just amazing! If a 3rd Lego Movie comes out, I don't know how they'll top that (kinda like Toy Story). Overall, I don't think I've ever enjoyed myself more with a movie than with The Lego Movie 2. I do have one minor complaint, though. Why is Batman dressed in all white flossing? Just why?… Expand

When the original Lego Movie was first announced there was a resounding groan from a lot of audience members, with people worried that it would end up being some weak corporate cash grab, just like the Emoji movie ended up being three yearsWhen the original Lego Movie was first announced there was a resounding groan from a lot of audience members, with people worried that it would end up being some weak corporate cash grab, just like the Emoji movie ended up being three years later. But to the surprise of many, it ended up being one of the most wholesome hits of 2014, one that was so good people were annoyed to see it absent from the 2014 Oscar nominations for best animated feature. Seeing franchise potential, Warner Bros quickly released a spin-off with Lego Batman, which received similar acclaim, and announced that a sequel following on from where the first left off was now being developed. (There was also a Lego Ninjago movie at some point, but I'm not sure if anyone saw or even remembers that one.)

Now five years after the events of the original Lego Movie, Emmet and his friends are now living in a Mad Max style world, where all the characters have become dark and brooding, apart from Emmet who is still jollily singing about how Everything Is Awesome. But Duplar invaders from the Sis-star system invade and end up taking Lucy, Batman and all of Emmet's other friends leaving Emmet to find a way to save his friends to stop Armomageddon.

On his journey to the Sis-star system, Emmet teams up with Rex Dangervest, a galaxy defending archaeologist cowboy and raptor who's basically an amalgamation of Pratt's post-Lego career in a hilarious duel performance from Pratt. It's kind of like seeing Parks & Rec Chris Pratt meet blockbuster superstar Chris Pratt.

We're also introduced to a whole new batch of characters from the Sis-star system, including a sparkly DJ vampire, an awkward ice cream cone and their queen Watevra Wa'nabi a character made out of blocks who can transform into anything she wants. The queen also has a very helpful introduction through the song "Not Evil" where she goes on to explain that she doesn't have any evil plans and no ulterior motives. It's very nice when a kidnapper can be very open about how very not evil they are.

There are actually quite a few songs in this one, following on from the success of Everything is Awesome. Somehow these songs seem even more self aware, including a song which literally has the lyrics "This song is gonna get stuck inside your head" and possibly one of the best end credits songs I've heard. Some of these songs differ in quality and there's probably one music sequence too many, but there's definitely enough songs here for kids to irritate their parents with on a loop. At least until the end of the year when Frozen 2 comes out.

Just like the previous films, Miller and Lord go all in on their own brand of meta humour, ranging from characters being self aware of their own roles in the film to cameos from a Ruth Bader Ginsburg figure and Bruce Willis, which includes a voice over cameo which is depressingly his best performance since Looper. There's also another real world lesson mirroring the events in the film, this time involving sibling rivalry and learning to play nicely with one another. But whilst this is definitely a really enjoyable second outing, the film does lack the same spark of originality that the original Lego Movie had. But anyone who enjoyed the fast paced wholesome quality of the first Lego Movie will not be disappointed by this entertaining follow up.… Expand

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part

Mitchell is clearly afraid to try anything new. Looped in the same process that we have already seen before, this installment works on nothing but humor. And as always, the humor has been ironical, pointing out the obvious in each scenario, it mocks down its own flaws and characters from all the sides. The references too helps in a lot, a culmination of all iconic characters, bubbles up the films, TVs, sports and pop cultural references that clearly is kept in mind in order to tickle its younger audience. And mind you, it's not for that younger audience- for them the visual effects and action is enough to blow their minds- it is more armed towards the teenage audience.

The musical sequences are my favorites, especially the way they start. There is always one among them opposing to hum along the tune, usually it's Banks. But personally for me, Arnett's musical numbers makes me tickle the most. In fact, his entire track is the highlight of the film. Not tied into any strings from the actual plot, he is literally there to mock everyone. His attitude of not accepting his mistakes, no matter how many time they ride that joke, comes out hilarious.

His entire image has gone topsy-turvy; he wears white cloak, he is not a bachelor anymore and he sings and dance to all the beats, and Haddish is the one to blame. Her character swoops in with charm and electrifies the whole screen like a concert. The non-animated part of the film is not only poorly performed but also shot with dull camera work that anchors the film. The emotions that it is trying to capture through it, seems in-congruent to its tone, we are so sunk in this tomfoolery world, that sincerity grows into a myth and the makers should have been aware of it and should have toned it down a bit.

Pratt, voicing two characters this time, is pretty much decent in his revisiting role but much more effecting in his newer suit. The endorsement he does of himself with such commitment and a "cool" voice does fool us along with the characters around him. Banks, the voice of the reason, gets to play the mellow part, despite of having a completely different persona than any other characters, she fails to stand out on her own merits, "her character just isn't ready to change."

Unlike the previous one, there aren't lots of things going on in screen, the makers have definitely minimized the plethora of characters version which helps us stay with the narration easily. The comments passed by famous stars every now and then, steals the thunder of the scene, like when everyone rushes down Batman's house, Alfred yells, "No shoes!" or Bruce Willis jumping in or an eerie equation of Superman and Green Lantern, the film keeps us busy through these formulas and we all nod along effervescently. The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part is a step down for the franchise where it still might be worth playing with but the original essence is clearly missing.… Expand

It’s a real revolution the way the LEGO series grew similarly with its viewers. Compared to my experience back in 2014, I only wrote one movie review every few months for my parents’ blog. Now, it’s a weekly side hobby as I stretch to somedayIt’s a real revolution the way the LEGO series grew similarly with its viewers. Compared to my experience back in 2014, I only wrote one movie review every few months for my parents’ blog. Now, it’s a weekly side hobby as I stretch to someday do it professionally. Much like my own gradual growth, these two parts to the LEGO cinematic universe keenly adapt to the values of the time. While The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part remains inconsistently nonsensical like the first movie, it still does more to develop greater complexity of what it analyzes about our culture. Director Mike Mitchell picks up exactly from the instant of the last feature’s finale for a new, mature direction you’d never guess the franchise could go, yet it goes there, to results that are both different and the same as before.

Not that it means the returning familiar characters, such as the Dark Knight, change in a way that enhances the entire product. There’s still a thoughtless plot twist that randomly throws itself about alongside cameos of Harley Quinn, “Larry” Poppins, Velma from Scooby Doo, and an unnecessary parody to “Let’s all go to the lobby.” Yes, it’s that kind of writing; the kind that weakens the main romance from before because the returning screenwriters, Phil Lord and Chris Miller, dig too shallow into a young boy’s psychology beyond the fist-shaped spaceship, “Rexcelsior.” They also dig too shallow into a young girl’s psychology, as the ruler of the feminized galaxy, the “Sistar System,” doesn’t feel like much of a threat.

These contrasting galaxies try to establish a metaphor saying siblings should play together, except Batman’s floss dance to maracas played by dinosaurs isn’t necessary for that message to get across. Other types of jokes milk the entertainment factor too far, particularly cartoon gags in a dainty little house, the return of that dreaded double decker couch (with an upgrade), and more jokes on the Batman franchise. Few important aspects from this abuse of self-aware humor prove significance beyond what audiences may be sick of by now.

Then Bricksburg becomes Apocalypseburg centered around a desolate lady liberty. But less on that, onto the girly toyland of the Sistar system, and its ruler, Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi. This queen is detailed with fingerprinted bricks that take on fun animations throughout two musical numbers, exclaiming she’s “totally not evil,” much like the adorably destructive vivid invaders with huge puppy dog eyes on cute little weapons shaped like hearts and stars. She could probably cause Ar-mama-gedds-in, a feared event that is actually a clever depiction of simple kid playtime problems, such as the older sibling forbidding the younger sibling from touching his or her toys. It all builds a better portrait of girl toys combined with very Muppet-esque humor to go against the style of the first movie, ultimately becoming a distinct twist on older alien invasion flicks.

Yet there’s plenty enough like the first movie to keep the familiar lovability intact; it keeps up with some fun little Easter eggs, as a LEGO Oscar appears for the satisfaction of those who still feel angered by the first movie’s infamous snub four years ago (myself included). Everybody from the snobby cinema scholars to the casual popcorn-happy moviegoers, will find guaranteed emotional satisfaction from the eventual fate of the Sistar system’s massive glory.

Yet to everyone who’s about to see this, a little fair warning: there’s a new song called, “Catchy Song,” that indeed gets stuck inside your head like the lyrics say they will. That song comes up specifically to be a mind-control device in an ominously happy scene that’s ultimately childish without a hint of sense. Regardless, I for one still find myself tapping away to “Catchy Song” whenever it plays! That’s my experience with LEGO on film: it’s still plenty of fun despite the clear flaws.

There’s a real proven power of LEGO’s motion pictures:

The LEGO Movie criticized the Obama administration exploiting corporate America so it could obtain an impractically perfect vision. Batman’s spinoff redefined our famous crusader as we reconsidered our sense of morality shortly after Trump’s inauguration. Ninjago is pure garbage, so it doesn’t count. Now, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part brings pop culture of boys and girls together to help tomorrow’s generation build a better society together. My, what a cultural shift we’ve made, and through something that looks like a toy commercial! Just compare that to thirty years ago, when anything with the word, “movie” in the title never carried depth besides commercialism. Keep it up, Warner Animation Group! Continue inspiring future artists to do better!… Expand

I'll come back with a review over three months when it comes to Blu-Ray because I could not focus on the movie at all because of the kids behind me. Among the worst cinema experiences.

Not surprisingly, a lot of what I said about the original movie remains true: "The visual style is cluttered, none of the characters are particularly memorable and the many chases are lively but unfocused. Still, the sometimes creative visuals and overall energetic approach should please eager young viewers, giving fans of the form plenty to play with." They seem to be going for an audience of older kids (8 - 12), because a lot of the dialogue is pretty "grown up," plus, there are 2 human kids around those ages that pop in and out. Even though I only laffed once, I was never bored (and all those catchy pop songs keep it bouncing along).… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A good movie, though not nearly as good as the first one. The plot is a little confusing, and we lack a clear villain like lord business. The jokes come so quickly that it's a little hard to keep up at times. Much like the original, this is one that will reward repeat viewing. Some decent songs and set pieces. You get all the characters from the first one, but not that many new characters. The whole thing feels a little samey. Will Ferrell gets a credit for literally two lines, both of which are delivered when he's not onscreen. Bruce Willis does a good cameo. The older of the two children in the real world is too old to be still playing with Lego. Overall if you enjoyed the original you'll enjoy this, but don't expect a "Toy Story 2"… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Loved the movie! SO very inventive and imaginative!!
My spoiler comment is regarding the ending. So Rex Dangervest is Emmet grown older, and he's the villain because in real life he represents the boy now older and something of a bully to his sister, busting her girly creations. I can buy that, but Rex's character wasn't altogether bad. He grabbed the bull by the horns and got things done. And resourceful (with his high-tech ship and trained raptors)! I think in the end, women want someone who's in between Emmet and Rex. Nice guy, but also man enough to take care of them, provide for them.… Expand

I like overall message (I used to fight with my sister too over toys) and the best part of the movie is the end credits. The do overdo metajokes and 4th wall breaks a bit too much here honestly. They tried to push "open your heart" thing, sure it is sweet but does not work well.
Of course the real and lego world in movie has weird laws, at one moment lego can move around real world and then back to lego world and does not acknowledge other "real" world? The time travel thing ruined second half and made it useless, but ending was OK. It's fun for kids, but nothing much for adults.… Expand

“How do you continue a great movie?” was the question me and a friend of mine posed while walking after school finished (although we were talking about Interstellar that moment…).
But that was the question I always had whenever I thought“How do you continue a great movie?” was the question me and a friend of mine posed while walking after school finished (although we were talking about Interstellar that moment…).
But that was the question I always had whenever I thought about The LEGO Movie 2:The Second Part.
Because,now that you made a unique movie that is a giant ad for LEGO at the same time,you surely want to churn out a franchise out of it. And,after the likes of Batman and Ninjago,I could say I was on board with the LEGO Franchise (Almost). And now that we have a follow-up to one of the greatest Animated Movies of All-Time,the question will finally be answered. And yes. Hell yeah,it's really good (nowhere near the first one's qualities),although there’s something that’ll keep bugging me whenever I’ll think of this movie. I just can't stop thinking about what happened in the writing room. Not about who has the upper hand on Creative Freedom,but on the enjoyment factor. This is a script that,while it takes the audience with big respect,is surrounded by a Virus,of an .exe quality. Something I’d like to call the “MikMitchell.exe” virus. Picture it this way. Phil Lord and Chris Miller are having a blast writing the script that is fun,exciting,full of plot twists and heartwarming to an extent,but then,when Mike Mitchell (sadly,the director of this movie) comes in and checks the script,he becomes the evil and serious professor that says “NO! THIS PART SUCKS” or “Just put in a musical number here so the kids will still be awake”,”I don’t want a cohesive story,you dumb imbeciles. When I say ‘Throw in a fart joke or a vomit joke’ are you simpletons?!?” (There’s a world that made me think of Suburbicon,but a Musical that would literally make Mike Mitchell happy). Think of it as a Creative Civil War. A great and intelligent script that is still surrounded by sheer stupidity. Emmet is trying to make the world awesome again,Lucy and the rest want their world to be dark and bleak in this Mad Max-styled city called Apocalypseburg,Queen Whatevra Wa’Nabi (a character that shifts to whatever form or figure she wants) wants to get married with Batman,all of it sprinkled with a message about playing differently with your kids,boys or girls,it doesn’t matter. And then,throw in a vomiting star,or a character that says the A word at the end of the movie because remember,it’s directed by the same guy who directed Trolls (and the upcoming TROLLS WORLD TOUR. AREN’T YOU EXCITED?!?) . Big potential realized for half of the movie. Man,do I want to punch Mitchell in the face just for that…
That’s not to say it’s a mixed bag. The Animation is,once again,great,and I love everytime Queen Whatevra Wa’Nabi moves. Mark Mothersbaugh’s score got a big improvement from the first movie,with the themes now being fully orchestral rather than a 50/50 between orchestra and techno vibes. The musical bits were great,but unnecessary,And Chris Pratt playing two characters that with different motifs was infinitely better than Steve Carell playing two characters in Despicable Me 3 (God,that was insufferable).
And again,the script was meddling at times,but nothing...too distracting or baffling. And there’s enough material in here that will entertain both kids and adults. Nowhere near as great as the first one,but still fun to watch. If anything,it gave me a big sense of hope after The LEGO Ninjago Movie gave me a sense of death for the Franchise.… Expand

This film has really no idea where they wanted to go with anything in this film. This causes lots of issues in the movieFirst of all, my main problem with the film is the plot. The first movie has a clear plot and knew where it wanted to go. This film has really no idea where they wanted to go with anything in this film. This causes lots of issues in the movie because they didn’t have a straight forward plot that everybody could easily follow. I’m going to try and not spoil it but in the first movie, there was a great plot twist that caught everybody off guard but this film they tried to do that and caused more issues in the plot. It made no sense and could have easily been taken out of the film and it would be a bit better. In the first film, we got the great song “Everything is Awesome” so this film had to try and outdo that song and I will give them credit for trying. One of the songs is called “Catchy Song” and it’s not catchy one bit. At some points, the film just comes to a halt so they can fit in a pointless song that it doesn’t need. All we needed was one good song in the film and instead, we got ten annoying songs. The first movie didn’t overuse humour but this one tried to stuff it in at every point they could and it doesn’t work. They used humour that broke the fourth wall and only older audience members would get which isn’t good since this is a film that’s gear towards kids. The message in this film is a good one but it’s forced down your throat so much that you don’t really care about it. They also pretty much say it and spell it out throughout the entire movie. The pacing in this film is way to fast to help understand anything that’s happening in the film. Really the only good thing about this film is the animation. In the end, I think this film could have been good if they kept the original directors on board. This film isn’t good for teens or adults and maybe kids will enjoy it but I would suggest seeing something else instead of this film.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. E-Value: 9
Acting: 9
Plot: 8

Although The Lego Ninjago Movie failed to performed well on critical and box office two years ago, Warner Animation Group continues to produce another Lego movie, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, which is the direct sequel to 2014’s The Lego Movie with most of the returning characters and casts.

Five years after the events of The Lego Movie, Bricksburg have been turned into a post-apocalyptic wasteland called Apocalypseburg after the town was invaded by the Duplo. Everyone in town has become hardened due to harsh lifestyle except for Emmet Brickowski (Pratt), who remains upbeat and optimistic about life despite the harsh environment.

Emmet continues to have a romance relationship with Lucy/Wyldstyle (Banks) and wanting to start a family life with her in a dream house he built. Despite being optimistic about his plan, he also has a terrible vision about an upcoming terrible event known as ‘Armamageddon’.

Out of nowhere, General Sweet Mayhem, who is the general of Systar System Army and works for Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi (Haddish), kidnap Batman along with Lucy, Benny, MetalBeard, and Unikitty and takes them to Systar system for some unknown purposes. While on his way to rescue them and having difficulty going through the asteroid field, he was rescue by a rugged adventurer named Rex Dangervest (also voiced by Pratt) and both of them have to work together in order to rescue them.

Like the first movie, this movie is really fun and I really enjoyed this movie more than its predecessor. In terms of the story, I think they are fine but what I like more about this movie is the humours. I think the humours in this movie are much funnier than the last movie.

Chris Pratt has never cease to amaze me with his voice acting and he certainly done a very good job in not only for both Lego movies but also voicing two characters. Same goes to the rest of the casts as well. However, having Jason Momoa to reprise his role as Aquaman may seem cool and awesome but it is kind of a wasted role because he has very little lines in the movie and never really do anything other than a cameo appearance.

The animation is quite well done just like the first one. I have also really enjoyed listening to the songs in the movie and it was really nice and funny which will ‘stuck inside your head’ (pun intended). Hopefully unlike the first one, this movie would at least get nominate for Oscars Best Animated Feature Film and nominate again for Best Original Song with possible chances of winning in either category or both. Last but not least, I definitely recommend you should watch this movie.… Expand

.
Dirigida por Mike Mitchell y protagonizada por Chris Pratt y Elizabeth Banks; en esta segunda entrega de The LEGO Movie, el universo de LEGO se enfrenta a los invasores de Lego Duplo, quienes han destruido todo indicio de "awesomeness" en la ciudad. Después de cinco años, los ciudadanos se han vuelto más rudos y maduros, a excepción de Emmet, quien se ve en la necesidad de cambiar cuando Wyldstyle y sus amigos son raptados y llevados a otra dimensión.
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part es una ingeniosa sátira que logra crear y contagiar una burla sobre la formula popular del consumismo actual, aún cuando no hace nada para cambiar el rumbo. Otro de los méritos es la animación y, aunque hay mucho CGI y falso stop-motion, la #película agrega elementos como dibujos 2D, material no animado y escenarios realistas para nivelar los ambientes y darle velocidad y dinámica. Lo que más me sorprendió fue la habilidad que tiene para crear una doble narrativa, en la que los personajes, sus acciones y descripciones, proponen una historia superpuesta fuera de lo que se ve.
Aunque estos aciertos son suficientes para mantener entretenido al público, no son excelentes y la trayectoria narrativa cliché, el dramatismo irónico y el pop reciclado provocan que el público nunca cruce la barda de la experiencia y se quede en una entretenida observación. The LEGO Movie 2 busca implantar el dilema que existe entre cambiar y ser uno mismo. La moraleja es intermitente en la película y la resolución, aparte de estar muy disuelta, busca dar una respuesta determinada: "Se tú mismo", lo cual provoca el abandono de la intención que de repente tuvo la historia de decir: "Cambia para bien" o "Madura". Personalmente eso fue lo que me hizo cavilar y crecer cierto disgusto por ella, pero para un público poco exigente, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part es suficiente para entretenerse y no sentir tedio por el cine infantil.

Directed by Micke Mitchell and voiced by Chris Pratt and Elizabeth Banks, in this follow up of The LEGO Movie, the universe of LEGO faces the invaders of LEGO Duplo, who have destroyed any sign of awesomeness in the city. After five years, all the citizens have become tougher and more mature but Emmet, who's challenged to change once Wyldstyle and his friends are abducted and taken to another dimension. The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part it's a clever satire that achieves to create and spread a mockery about the popular formula of actual consumerism, even yet, when it does nothing to change it. Another one of the merits it's the animation and, even though there's a lot of CGI and fake stop-motion, the movie adds elements like 2D drawings, non animated material and real live sceneries to play with the environment and give rhythm and dynamism to it. What surprised me the most was its ability to create a double narrative, in which its characters, their actions and descriptions, proposes an overlapped story outside of what it's been seen. Even though these achievements are enough to keep the public entertained, they are far from being excellent and the cliché narrative, the ironic drama and the recycled pop makes the public to never cross the wall of experience and leaves them only in an entertained observation. The LEGO Movie 2 search to place the dilemma between change and being oneself. The moral its intermittent in the movie and n the resolution, which is very dissolved, tries to give a determined answer: "Be yourself", which causes the abandonment of a sudden intention in the story to say: "Change for good" or "Grow Up". Personally, that was what made me brood and grow some dissatisfaction for it, but for a less demanding public, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part it's enough to get entertained and not feel tedium for kid films.… Expand

I think I'm brainwashed! Anyways, this one really surprised me. It tries too hard to be Sweet Mayhem like the first one, but it sometimes ended up being General Mayhem. The humour is juvenile for the most part like Ninjago, and it actually lost me for some time for how incoherent and all over the place the plot is. That said, it delivered its message surprisingly brilliantly by taking advantage of its twists and turns in a way that made my jaw drop! Also, its second half largely compensated for the issues I have with its first hour, as it kept getting better after that at everything. Hence, everything became AWESOME again!

Most of the jokes in this film don’t work for me at all. They feel out of place and very cringe worthy. Some of the songs can get annoying. I feel mixed about the idea of it turning into a semi musical but I don’t have a problem with most of the songs. The ones I do are just annoying and irritating. The human plot line was kind of dumb. I wasn’t a huge fan of it and each scene with the human characters dragged me out of the film. This film is also kinda underwhelming. It starts to feel more like an add on than a sequel at points throughout the film which can feel underwhelming. Here are the positives. Just as the first, it looks visually awesome. I love the animation style used with these films. It’s also incredibly meta which works very well for this film. Chris Pratt plays two characters in this film. He plays Emmet and a character named Rex who is basically a mish mash of all of Chris Pratt’s biggest roles (Guardians of the Galaxy, Jurassic World, and Magnificent Seven). The film is paced really well. It’s fast paced and moves quickly in order to get from scene to scene. The cast does a great job as in the first film. I love Chris Pratt’s and Elizabeth Banks’ Chemistry with each other. It worked great in the first film and it works great in the second film. I do like the new characters added to this film. Rex is a great character and it’s genuinely surprising when he turns out to be Emmet from a different timeline. I also like Tiffany Haddish as Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi. There is also a lot of heart to this film. It’s emotional in certain points and makes you feel for the characters. Most of the songs in this film are pretty good. The Everything is Awesome remix is nice to hear and the Not Evil song is nice. I do like how the movie plays up as Wa-Nabi is a bad guy but in reality it’s Rex. It’s played off nicely. The tone for this film does remain consistent all the way through. Overall, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part may not be as good as the original but it stills provides a great voice cast and great visuals. I give The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part a 7.5/10.… Expand

The animation is still fantastic and the jokes consistently land and they're all very meta and self aware. Overall, while this won't blow anyone away it doesn't really try to so it technically gets a pass. It's competently made and very funny.… Expand

Good squeal but I didn't like that they completely threw out the father, as he was always out "golfing", overall good family film and the small criticism is not worth missing this movie over.

It is like an "Incredibles 2" kind of sequel, not bad but not great. Mainly because most of the jokes were not funny. There are jokes that are reused from the first one and obviously don't feel fresh anymore. The characters feel flat and their arcs aren't as good as the previous one.Even if I don't compare this movie to the previous one is still not a great movie. I think that what really cemented the previous one as an animated masterpiece is the message, the meaning behind the movie. In this movie we don't get a message as powerful as the previous movie. There is a message, but it's weak and ultimately when it doesn't have too much to say, it ends up feeling empty. Phil Lord and Chris Miller wrote the script and honestly I was shocked, because these guys are talented, but when watching it I felt like it was written by "insert screenwriter name here" and that tried to imitate the brilliant script of the last movie.

Enough with my issues with the movie, because it had some positives: The visuals as expected look great and I feel like they pushed the visuals a little bit further, thus making the visual aspect superior to the original. It has so much style and the sets look awesome. There were some jokes that actually made me laugh for their creativity, even when 90% of the humor was either not funny, or "been there done that". That's pretty much it for the things I actually liked. In conclusion, the biggest problem is the lack of creative ideas and franchise fatigue. Pretty much the Lego Movies are starting to play it safe, recycling jokes and running gags and plot points, and it's a shame, because what started as a fresh and creative concept is starting to feel dull. While, in my opinion, this was an unnecessary sequel, I feel that the writers and director could've taken advantage of that fact and make some funny self-aware jokes about how unnecessary this movie is or something or simply just come up with creative ideas! Like I said, it feels more of an "Incredibles 2" than a "Toy Story 2", far from being bad, but there were a lot of "been there done that" moments. If the original, as great of a movie as it was, didn't get an Oscar nomination, I feel like this one has even less chance to being nominated. I will be surprised if it actually does.… Expand

The first lego movie had jokes for adults and kids of all ages, when i saw the Lego Movie 2 with my kids almost no one laughed. TheEverythings NOT Awesum ... the song says it all .. what a let down after the great first lego movie. The first lego movie had jokes for adults and kids of all ages, when i saw the Lego Movie 2 with my kids almost no one laughed. The occasional smile here and there at some pop culture cliches. The story is disjointed and the music forced, it just doesn't gel like the first movie. Dan & Kevin Hageman were writers on the first movie and it seems they were missed in the lego movie 2. Like many Hollywood movies lately it had the required man hating feminist themes and Mary Sue female characters. The first movie left many possibilities to give the second movie huge potential but the whole move had a close enough is good enough vibe ... really not a lot to recommend here ... people actually walked out of the showing we went to ... if your children are under 5 perhaps it will be OK ... but my kids are older and even though they loved the first lego movie they left Lego movie 2 disappointed… Expand

When the first LEGO movie came out, I was a bit in awe on how it was created. The creation and animation was just beautifully done and it provided hilarious cameos and humor. After it’s success, we got the LEGO Batman movie. I enjoyed it so much more and as a whole, was stepped up a notch. I did not get the chance yet to see LEGO Ninjago, but that was because it did not initially appeal to me but after seeing this movie, I have a renewed interest to see it now. This film picks up where the first film left off with the live action sequences we were treated to at the end of the first film and it inter-cuts this into the main story. I have to say that I like how they make this universe work. Again, it’s very creative. The LEGO world now looks like something out of Mad Max. Chris Pratt returns to do the lead voice of Emmet and Elizabeth Banks as the rebel without a cause, Lucy. Some of my favorite moments throughout the film are the Justice League cameos, especially Jason Mamoa doing the voice work for Aquaman. I loved the yell he does being added here. Another nice touch is a scene where Lucy is traveling through a vent and we see John McClane of Die Hard. Bruce Willis does the small bit of dialogue and thought it was hilarious. The villains this time around are “Aliens” from another LEGO world that want a marriage between their queen, voiced by the always funny, Tiffany Haddish. While the group captured falls into the gifts the queen wants to give, Lucy is not buying it. This leads to original music that I still can’t get out of my head. The tunes are so catchy. Emmet in the meantime decides to travel to save the group and runs into Rex Dangervest. Halo video game lovers will love the suit he has on when we are first introduced to him. As the movie pedals along, we are treated to a few twists along with a meaningful ending. The third act kind of threw me for a loop at times and was actually surprised in the direction it ended up going in. The animation continues to be strong and all the voice actors add their own flavor to each character and I loved every moment that each LEGO had. Will Arnett’s Batman again steals the show and I am not surprised. I will not though there is one joke in the film I thought was a little tasteless. Abraham Lincoln has a LEGO in the film and when he is about to fall into oblivion, he cracks a joke about having theater tickets. It seemed a bit morbid to me to throw a joke at a person’s death. All in all, LEGO Batman still remains my favorite but this a very good sequel that is a worthy addition to the LEGO movie universe.

This movie was better then I expected, it has humor, heart, and some pretty cool fight scenes and the plot twist at the end made for an amazing ending. I'm interested to see if Warner Brothers would make a LEGO Movie 3.

It's weird and it's very sad at the beginning. That's stupid when Emmet still thinks that everything is awesome but it's not.

I am of course talking about The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part. I really enjoyed this movie! It wasn’t quite as solid or as original as the first movie, but it was still a lot of fun! The animation is still brilliant, it’s still hilarious (with a ton of jokes and references that kids won’t get!), it still has heart, and it still has great songs! This is the perfect movie to watch with your kids, it has a great message all about family and getting along with each other. There really isn’t a lot to say, it’s just a good time! It’s a shame that it did so poorly at the box office.… Expand

It's hard to say whether it was a movie or me, but I just didn't like it as much as the previous one. He started quite well in a great location and overall it looked good, but as the story gradually began to unfold, I began to slowly but surely be disappointed because I just didn't get much. To all this, it occurred to me that such a spell and idea from the first part disappeared and the Catchy Song's jingle was not downright bad, but quite far from the quality of the previous one from the first part. Overall, this is an above-average film for me, but as a rule, I do not want to say that I would not recommend the film. LEGO fans might like it, but he didn't sit well with me personally.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Batman marries a horse, how could it be anything less than a 7/10?

But seriously, the movie, while not as good as the first one, is still quite good. It gets quite meta, and it gets a little confusing, but I feel like that was intentional. I do, however, feel quite a lack of President Business. He does appear in the movie, but I feel like during the marriage process it would have been kinda cool to at least see him in the crowd. Instead, he just nopes the hell outta there once the... Things attack for the first time, and then makes one final appearance at the very tail end of the movie and blows himself up. Also, if there ever will be a third movie, please, please, PLEASE, tone in it down a bit with the whole... Meta-ness of it all. I said that I liked it, but I feel like maybe it was a bit too much after all. Also, I don't get how the ©Lego®™ Figures can just stand up and walk around easily in their "world", but when they get flung off the table it's suddenly difficult to do? Like, I get it, the kids are probably playing with them when they are in their respective world, but do you think that whole sequence where Lucy tries to infiltrate the space temple was both the kids playing at the same time? Like, there's still quite a logic gap. Or maybe, just maybe, that's not what the movie is really about? I dunno, but it's still a great movie nonetheless.… Expand
