Go in with an open mind

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2014)

I am a college student and The Lego Movie came to our in residence hall theater so I was delighted to finally get a chance to see this movie. I loved the beginning and the lovely CGI that appeared to be stop motion. Also the star power gave this movie an added bonus because it was fun to try and figure out the actor behind the animated Lego character. The social commentary was excellent and now you may be wondering why I am not giving this movie a 10. This is because I went in already assuming this movie was going to be great therefore when it was stunning I was left without some of the aw that I thought I would have. Also it felt like the whole theater seemed to force themselves to laugh at the jokes just wanting the movie to be as great as they hoped which toke something from the film. Overall the messages were great and it was quite funny, the end dragged out a bit to long for my sake but still a great film which I recommend.
