This makes the movie a fun ride for child, teenager and adult.Īs a standalone movie, I feel it lacks world- and character-building. The jokes in this movie are simple and not too hard to understand, but aren't childish.

These references make for some great laughs. Once again, the filmmakers have some great references to other franchises. It turns out to be a bit cliché, which I felt a bit disappointed about. Sadly, this reveal isn't even close to being on the same level as the reveal of the first movie. It does, however, try to replace the reveal of the first movie, with another reveal. This, luckily, isn't done to an extend where it would be annoying and distracting from the story being portrayed with Lego bricks. The movie accepts this and integrates scene's with real actors in the movie. Because, whilst the first Lego Movie could work with the fact that the audience wasn't aware of the origins of the movie's story (this origin being a child's imagination), this movie had to work with an audience aware of this origin.

Personally, I didn't go see this movie with very high expectations.
