As promised, we’re bringing you a short but sweet review of The LEGO Movie which we went to go and see at the Lincoln ODEON.

Basically, it’s great as we thought it was going to be. It isn’t quite as spectacular as all the critics are making it out to be, but in all seriousness it is a great family film.

Even when we say ‘family’ we mean that lightly. There are so many jokes which are suitable for grown-ups in this film that really you should have no shame as a young student or young person in general without children in going and seeing this film.

Only issue is that people seem to be labouring under the impression that it is a film just for kids, so parents are taking their children to see it. This is annoying.

There’s a point in the film where the main character, Emmet, really does hit a jeopardy point and this young child next to us started to cry. It was rather irritating. We wanted to tell the parents to shut it up but then the situation is rather quickly resolved so fortunately the little shit only ruined about 180 seconds of the movie for us.

It does end with the stereotypical American ending which is everyone looking ‘bleary-eyed’ and ‘proud’ as some characters save the day, but it is great. The end is also begging for a sequel, which it looks as though Warner Brothers may have already confirmed. We’re pleased about this.
