Great Fun

Rating: 6/10 (25 March 2014)

I'm not sure whether it is good or bad, but there were no kids at all in the theater when I watched the Lego movie - It was the last screening of the day and there weren't too many adults around either. I saw the 2d version of the film, but suspect the visuals may have been even more impressive in 3d.
The Lego movie tells the story of Emmet who is a very ordinary lego figure mistaken for the chosen one who will save lego. He has to escape the attentions of the evil Lord Business who wants to end the universe and the good cop/bad cop who is tasked with finding him by Lord Business. He is helped along the way by Wyldstyle who recognises that he is the chosen one.
The movie is fast paced with loads of action and cameos by numerous faces from popular culture. I will not spoil the surprise by listing these, but the film is great fun from start to finish. I suspect the humour will appeal more to adults than children, but don;t have anything to back up this gut feel. Good fun!!
