The Lego Batman movie disappointed me big time! Rather than what could have been a deserving spin-off of the Lego Movie, it has been presented as a parody on Batman promulgating "teamwork". It is therefore, not a movie 'for-all-ages' and would enthrall only kids, as I witnessed in the theater too.
Although, not all is wrong with the movie. It has some delightful cracks at the Batman mythos and a running gag on Iron Man. Introduction of characters from other franchises is always welcome, Voldemort, Sauron and King Kong for example in this case. The animation, like previously, is spot-on and the wide variety of Batman Rogues' gallery is also appreciated.
But quite frankly, the originality and freshness of its predecessor is missing. Phil Lord and Christopher Millers, the original directors could not deliver us the same awesomeness as producers which they did as directors. The plot is quite predictable, and the action sequences is a tad bit on the excessive side.
A movie kids would love but not all adults.
My Rating - 6.7/10
