The Lego Movie (2014, Lord & Miller)

So, I went to see 'The Lego Movie' on Friday and oh my days I cannot say enough about how amazing this movie is.

It is a good film for pretty much anyone. It's good for children because well, it's Lego. It's good for Lego people because once again it is Lego. It's good for film people because of how it shows different genre's and makes fun of them by pushing what the genre's do to the extreme. It's good for everyone because seriously who didn't play with Lego?
One thing is the actual story of the film itself. I was scared that because it is so focused on including the different Lego sets that the story might slip in some places but my worry was unjustified because that story never slipped. In addition to this the story wasn't too much of a kids story that has been done a million times (OK, I'll level with you the ending was a bit cheesy but not enough to be annoying). But overall the story isn't one just for kids, it's one that I think anyone could relate to.
The last thing I'm going to say is what absolute geniuses these guys where. I mean I'm pretty sure that the only Lego set they didn't include was Indiana Jones but that is totally made up for by including the Star Wars cameo. Anthony Daniels, the original C-3PO, does the voice of Lego C-3PO in the cameo which I kind of had a fan-girl moment over. Although, I will say the one trick they missed was not having Ryan Reynolds as the voice of Green Lantern because all they did was make fun of Green Lantern and that is what everyone does to the Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern film anyhow. (I do realize that they may have asked Ryan Reynolds and he rejected it for that exact reason)
Overall, I find it hard to have anything bad to say about this film. It is basically the perfect film for practically anyone. Just put down the laptop, turn off the computer and go to the cinema. Just watch 'The Lego Movie', you won't regret it. Promise.
