Everything is indeed Awesome

Well, that was unexpected. When i first found out about this film, I thought it was a cheap cash-in on a popular kids' toy, made specifically to sell more kids' toys. And do you know what? It made me want to go out and do just that.
The film follows Emmett, (Chris Pratt) a construction worker who fits in perfectly with the LEGO world around him - he fits in so well, in fact, that he is never noticed by anyone, until one day he accidentally stumbles upon an ancient artifact, naming him 'The Special.' We then follow Emmett into a web of conspiracy and strange characters such as Wyldstyle, (Elizabeth Banks) Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman) and Benny (Charlie Day) as he teaches the world to be creative, and with a fantastic third act that will definitely catch some viewers off-guard, and others will see coming a few 2x4 red bricks away.
The pacing is very fast, which is a little annoying for the first 10-20 minutes, but after that you really get into the groove, and it feels awesome. The voicing is also a little quiet against the background music, but i can cope. Morgan Freeman made it all okay.
This is definitely one of the better 'kids' films I've seen in the past few months - and not just kids will like it, the parents will love it too. GO. SEE. THIS. NOW.
