The Lego Movie is a perfect family film. I love how they purposely dropped the frame rate to make it look like stop motion; I honestly thought it partly was when I first saw it. The story, while a bit simple, is compelling and interesting. The acting in this film is beyond perfect. I mean talk about getting THE best people to voice these characters: Chris Pratt as the ordinary doofus whose supposed to be the big hero but has no idea what he's supposed to do; Elizabeth Banks as the kick-ass love interest; Morgan Freeman as the wise old wizard; Will Ferrel as the goofy villain; Liam Neeson as the goofy side villain, Will Arnett as Batman (no explanation required, it's Batman); Allison Brie as the sweet girly girl who has a pretty psychotic bad side you do NOT want to get on; the list goes on. The humour is on point and had me laughing every time they made a joke. It's a very quotable movie; I honestly irritate my family when we watch it by quoting everything. It has a surprisingly neat twist and a very heart-warming ending. Overall, a great film, very funny, and one of my favourites.
Hilarious, heart-warming, and beautiful
