Lego Movie....Meh

I'm gonna give my thoughts on Big Hero 6 tomorrow but for now I'll say this.

 

So I watched The Lego Movie tonight and just like Guardians of the Galaxy I feel I've heard a little too many positive reviews. Of the big animated movies last year, this was obviously the one geared completely towards kids. It's not awesome as I heard many people (even adults) call it. It was simply a fun crazy experience that is best watched with kids ^_^

 

Though I can say one great thing about it, I can definitely say that I've found the impersonation of my future self in Emmet :P The way he acted in the beginning with no friends, nothing special about him, lonely, that'll most certainly be me ^_^

I thought it was enjoyable, but nothing special.

 

Princess Unikitty was cute, and I liked the Emmett x Wyldstyle shipping. And the Everything is Awesome song is pretty addictive.

 

I did think that the second layer to the film (with Will Ferrell's character and his kid) was a clever addition though.

 

I think it's just a shame that the whole message of the film, about being creative and not just following the instructions, seems to be completely lost on the Lego toy makers. Any box of Lego that you buy these days seems completely geared towards building one specific model, with detailed instructions. :(

Some of those look better than most Lego products, but still if you look at the product details they say:

 

Ideas included with the set and online at LEGO.com/classic to help you get started

They can't resist the temptation to throw in a few instructions.

The Lego movie resonated deeply with my inner child. I was the Spaceship guy. I built spaceships left and right for most of my childhood.
