The Lego Movie 8/10
The
Lego Movie was very cute. I feel weird even saying that but its true.
Its so hard for me to watch most CGI films nowadays because they feel
like they have no soul to them. To me there is nothing like watching
an animated movie that was hand drawn by people. But its difficult
for me to even bother watching these new films because I'm an old
man. New things scare me. It takes a special something for me to give
a new CGI film a try and this one did because it has Lego's. I never
had them and when I played with them I was terrible. But still.
Lego's.
It
amazed me that this was able to make me give a damn about a main
character, Emmet, who is the plainest Lego toy. He's really nice and
tries to be nice to everyone. The problem is that he is so nice and
agreeable that he doesn't make an impact on anyone around him.
He meets up with this crazy ass action girl named Wyldstyle who believes that he is The Special; a being that has been foretold to help rid the world of Lord Business who wants everything to be the same and still by using this stuff called Kragle which is Krazy Glue with letters missing.
The
music in this is good and there are a lot of funny parts. Batman in
particular is really funny especially a scene where he shows off his
new sound system and plays a song he made that had my ass cracking
up. Its called Untitled Self Portrait that you can hear by clicking here. This is one of those movies I wish existed when I was a kid.
There is a part that I won't spoil but I thought the movie jumped the
shark but it didn't. It made it better and gave me chills...then made
me wish my parents loved me. So then I was sad. But then something
exploded and I laughed again! Check this out if you can. Its been
number one for weeks for a reason.
