The Lego Movie (2014)
I have to say, this is one rare animation film
that could satisfy audience of all ages. From the opening moments of the
film, The Lego Movie fires an endless array of jokes at its audience from
seemingly every angle. Writers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (who also
directed the film) have an expert grasp of the absurd, and they use it to great
effect, ensuring that every scene is stuffed to the gills with laughs. Many of
the film's best moments are derived from the fact that the characters,
vehicles, and environments are created from Lego pieces: one of the rules
established by the filmmakers was that everything appearing on screen must be
possible to construct in the real world.
The stand out feature of the Lego Movie for me would be the way the Lego
Universe was created. The movie paid great attention to detail making
everything appear as it would made from Lego, including the water and clouds,
and the surfaces people walked on all had the circles sticking upwards a Lego piece
would have. Combined with all the yellow faces, and Lego part during building,
I was convinced action took place in the Lego Universe.
This film has great animation and a great story, it has an all star
voice cast example Morgan freeman and will Ferrell. This film will be up on the
shelve as one of the greatest films ever animated, ever thought about and ever
written. In a box office market where Frozen has dominated the family slate for
over 11 weeks (with an honorable mention for The
Nut Job), The
Lego Movie looks
primed to walk away with 2014′s biggest opening to date.
It is a must watch.
