So watched the Lego movie yesterday, and I sort of enjoyed it, but I wanted to enjoy it more which left it somewhat disappointing.
I think that the moment that it lost it for me was the cross over between the animated world and the live action stuff. It would have been so much better without that element.*
Although quite why Lego had to make a film to remind people that you don’t have to just follow the instructions is well beyond me.
Having said that the latest kits and the success of the company is selling movie tie in kits, were the focus is on making things exactly as they are in the instructions.
* And that is before I get hung up on my dislike of Will Farrell, who is always himself in everything he is in.
