Review: by Leanne
After Anthony and I saw The LEGO Movie and loved it, the decision to see The LEGO Batman Movie was a no-brainer. One of our favorite parts of The LEGO Movie was Will Arnett's portrayal of Batman, and we were certain he would not let us down when he reprised the role.
The LEGO Batman Movie follows LEGO Batman (Will Arnett) as he struggles with his inability to form meaningful relationships with the people in his life. His refusal to commit to the Joker (Zach Galifianakis) as his arch nemesis leads the Joker to go to great lengths to prove just how much Batman needs him. Throw in Batman’s newly adopted son, Dick Grayson (Michael Cera), unappreciated surrogate father/butler, Alfred Pennyworth (Ralph Fiennes), and the new police commissioner, Barbara Gordon (Rosario Dawson), and the adventure reaches new heights of hilarity.
What I Liked:
What I Didn’t Like:
I honestly cannot think of anything I did not like. It was a fantastic children’s movie. It may have been a bit corny, but what children’s movie isn’t?
Summary
The LEGO Batman Movie was a great movie for adults and children alike. The voice acting and script were fantastic.
