Good, but Heavily Overrated

Rating: 5/10 (4 July 2014)

SMALL SPOILER AT THE END, but it's really nothing to worry about.
So, basically, from nowhere this movie shows suddenly shows up, and I'm thinking this will be just the commonly considered ordinary good/average kids-movie of the year, but it doesn't quite turn out that way, something's not right. People suddenly starts to over-hype the film and calling it a "masterpiece" and "the greatest animation" and such. I see a trailer of the movie in the theatre and think it looks weird but interesting. I decide not to watch it in theatres, and after watching it online it appears I was pretty much right in not wasting my money on this film. Now I'm gonna say this: I liked the film, as I'm a Lego-fan since childhood and thought it was really funny and promoted a good message. BUT, as the title says, this movie is HEAVILY overrated and not at all deserving of all the praise it has got at this point.
Seriously, 96% approval at Rotten Tomatoes? I'm not really the type that cares a lot about online ratings, but SERIOUSLY?! (the reviewers at Rotten Tomatoes REALLY needs a slap to the face as a wake-up call) Honestly, I'm thinking like a lot of other people, this film is just famous for the moment and will be practically forgotten by the end of the year. It's really startling to think people would actually see this film more than one or two times and call it better than the greatest animated film (aswell as THE greatest film ever) made; the Oscar-winning masterpiece Frozen. No, "The Lego Movie" does not live up to its hype at all. "Everything is awesome", yeah (kinda catchy tune by the way, but it's no "Let It Go"), but there's no chance this film is anything like a "masterpiece". But I guess, being a kids-movie, I guess the film's success/praise should be treated from this perspective. Bottom line, it's a good, funny, and entertaining movie (not great), I enjoyed it, but it's very, very overrated, and I'm expecting this to end very soon. By the way: "SPACESHIP! SPACESHIP!! SPACESHIP!!!" Could be the most hilarious moment in the whole movie.
