Failed To Load Title Not really a kids movie fan but I may have to see this |
|
[#1]
My son is into two things in a big way: Legos and Batman. The first time I saw a Lego movie advertised I said "How is this going to be anything but stupid?". Well, It turned out that the first Lego Batman movie they made was actually pretty good. Did not feel like torture the way I expected it to. And yes, my son has been waiting for this one, so we'll be going to see it this weekend.

May take my daughter to it. She is getting older so harder to use her as an excuse to go see these types of movies.

I liked the Lego movie a lot, and I'll definitely watch the Lego Batman.
|

I read a review today that said this is the best Batman movie of all of them.

I liked the first Lego movie a lot more than I thought I would.

Taking my daughter to this instead of seeing John Wick 2. But it's OK, I enjoyed the first Lego movie.

My kid wanted to see Surfs Up.
To this day one of my all time favorites. |

Ok for a 4 yr old? He's both a lego and batman super fan. View Quote There is nothing that will bother a 4 year old but most of jokes are geared for an adult audience. It constantly references all the eras of Batman going all the way back to the 40s so that is all going to be lost on a little kid. This is a highly entertaining film just like the Lego movie which if you haven't seen you really should. |

My son and I really enjoyed the Lego movie and I'm looking forward to seeing this
|

[#17]
My wife and kid saw it and she said it was 'meh'.
She's a stick in the mud though, so I'll still go see it with my other kid. (I saw John Wick 2 by myself.....save your $9....just rent the first one and watch it again.) |

Saw it tonight with the wife and kid. Hilarious. Tons of laugh out loud jokes and older pop culture references. I 'bout fell out my chair at the leg day reference.

I took my daughter today, the movie is really funny. I would recommend.
My 2-1/2 year old was clapping and cheering at the end. |
|
[#22]
Has a SJW vibe along with other positive messages for children. It is no JW2, but it was hilarious.

Went and saw it. My wife and I thought it was meh. I actually fell asleep at one point. We LOVED the first lego movie. This one just seemed like it was trying too hard.
My 14 year old daughter and 8 year old son both thought it was amazing. |
|
[#24]
Its fucking hilarious. A few slow areas but mostly lots of laughs and good entertainment.
Batman likes boxing. Beat boxing. |
|
[#25]
Saw it tonight and it was OK, the Lego movie was better and this one had it moments but wasn't the best.

Wife and I took the 6 year olds and almost 4 year old... They loved it and we enjoyed it too. Not quite as good as the Lego Movie, but better than 99.9% of the kids movies out there. * All of the references were fantastic.
*Good God were the trailers AWFUL. |
|
[#29]
My 10 year old loved it. I Ioved it.
The Lego Movie is also great. |
|
[#30]
Some of my friends who have adopted and do foster care said that the movie was somewhat offensive in regards to how batman treats robin in this movie? Anybody comment on that? Curious if this is legit concern or my friend's wife just being easily offended. (my freedom fries 5.11 shirt sent her into a tirade one time. )

[#31]
We enjoyed the heck out of it.
Definitely the best cartoon movie in a while. |
|
[#32]
My wife ended up taking my daughter. I ended up having to work, wish I had gone to the movie instead. Both of them enjoyed it, I'll end up seeing it on bluray.

The BAT in batman stands for best at teamwork.
This movie was great |
|
[#34]
Hopefully can take the 5 and 9 year old this week.
...and me. I am definately going. |

I know it was meant to show batman in a poor light but now I'm a bit surprised I haven't seen more complaints. |

Saw it Friday night, the boy liked it a lot. I thought it was decent.
|

Took my son to see it yesterday; it was decent. Loved the line when Batman said to Robin "we are gonna punch these guys so hard that words are going to spontaneously appear out of thin air"
Is it wrong that I felt like I was watching a movie about John_Wayne777 the whole time |

Like I said I didn't think about in the moment. I saw as you did for being over the top. Just because I can understand why might think something doesn't mean I agree with it.

It was decent, liked the first Lego movie better.
Lots of nostalgia and gay undertones which they snuck in there. 2 dad's references, letting Robin be flamboyant, the sharing of feelings between batman and joker. |
|
[#44]
I could only stand 30 seconds of the trailer, I can't see myself ever going to a feature length movie of that inanity.
|

[#45]
Saw it with the kids yesterday.
It was great. Very clever, lots of subtle adult humor, references to old comic story lines, and funny jokes. Definitely a thumbs up. |

I know it was meant to show batman in a poor light but now I'm a bit surprised I haven't seen more complaints. That was a tool to show Batman's transition from a self-centered loner (because he's scared of losing someone close to him again) to accepting help from others/being part of a family unit. Anyone who looks at the major plot driver and says "I'm concerned about the way this is portrayed" needs to just avoid movies altogether because they're too busy focusing on what hurts their butt to get the point. I'm not directing this at you but at tornadochaser's retarded friend. |

Pretty good. Was funny but a bit too long. No kids movie should be over 1 hr 30 min. Also got a little too preachy/teachable moments near the end. I don't need a movie to teach my kids anything, just entertain them.

View Quote That's the main reason I liked the Lego Movie better; the movie didn't spend over an hour beating you in the face with the lesson you're supposed to learn. Subtlety is the key to a good movie. |
