WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

harperdiscoveredemail All right, so this movie isn't Citizen Kane. Let's be real. It's a kid's movie. It never tries to advertise itself as anything else. Sure, it's not really deep, but it is amusing. I remember watching this movie as a young kid and enjoying it immensely. Not for its thought-provoking morals, not for its innovation in the animation industry, but for being a fun movie that I could enjoy. Sure, it's light, but not every movie needs to be heavy and deep and thought-provoking.

Dalbert Pringle Clearly nothing more than just a cute "kiddies" picture - The one thing that I liked about this Lego production was the squat appearance of all the Lego characters (and their plasticized hair, too).It was especially when these thick-set characters were on the run that I got my chance to chuckle at the awkwardness of their limited movements. To me, that was about the best thing that this CG adventure tale of bungling heroics and dumb wise-cracks had to offer.Unfortunately, when it came right down to this picture's actual storyline - I'd say that it could've been a bit more original, than what was poorly presented here.I found this Clutch Powers' story to be just stale and predictable nonsense that's been so obviously recycled about 1000 times before. And, due to this, it became something of a chore for me to stay focused and remain interested in what I was watching on the screen.Anyway - Strictly from an adult's perspective - This particular Lego production was, at best, "OK" as far as entertainment goes.

et-89 I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It's very lighthearted and full of staples of the genres, in this case adventure, science fiction and fantasy. From the moment Clutch uttered "rock monsters, why does it have to be rock monsters?" I knew I was going to like this movie, although the highlight for me was "it was a dark and stormy knight". The movie is full of homages to other movies and to fantasy tropes.The story moves quickly between adventure, superspy and futuristic (prison planet) until it settles on fantasy. I found this unexpected, and for the remainder of the movie continued to think it would move on from this. Unfortunately the movie ends with a definite "to be continued" feeling. With one villain of three apprehended it looks like this is supposed to be a trilogy. Will it be continued? I certainly hope so.I enjoyed the animation, and the way the lego world was built. Nothing amazing in terms of visuals, but there was good humorous use of the fact that the world is built from legos.Is it worth going out to the movie theatre to see this? I'd say it's borderline. Give me 3D and I'm sold. Still, I'm definitely hoping the sequels will appear.

samradion Firstly this is a kids movie and has to be reviewed as such. If you're an adult and even an adult fan of Lego you won't get a huge amount out of this. The movie has some nice touches such as a scene inspired by the alien movies and the post-opening intro song is actually pretty good.However it really does seem the main aim of this movie is to sell more Lego than to entertain, they have tried to cram in just about every current Lego range in (rock monsters, space police, city and castle) before rather strangely deciding to base the rest of the movie in the Castle universe.The animation is OK, but not really much better than any of the cut-scenes in a Lego game and the whole movie did have the feel of an extended computer game scene. I couldn't help feeling this would be better suited to a 15-20 minute episode format on kids TV.The voice cast is actually not bad, Ryan McPartlin and Yvonne Strahovski (sic?) are well known for their work together on Chuck and are well cast.Overall a fun kids film to kill an hour or so for a young Lego collector, but ultimately too shallow and lacking lots of the humorous touches that featured in other Lego offerings such as the Lego Star Wars games that made them fun for adults too. Worth picking up when it inevitably appears in the £5 section of your local supermarket, but still a million miles better than the Bionicle movie.
