Lego DC Comics Super Heroes: The Flash

When you watch this expect a Lego Movie. The Flash is funny, and entertaining. Filled with jokes, and easter eggs. The Flash has to find out how to properly use his powers for himself and the good of team. I got a lot more than I was expecting from this Lego Movie.

Heavily featuring the Justice League, this fun little meta adventure follows Flash on a journey of self discovery. Silly, sassy, with all your favourite voice actors and all the self-aware nods Lego usually brings. Lots of familiar DC faces and places, it's no Citizen Kane but it's a ball.

This film has Flash as the protagonist and this film insists on exhibiting him as the buffoon of the group. Apart from this, the rest of the superheroes demonstrate their incapacity against much less powerful villains, which raises doubts about their individual and group efficacy. Flash faces a space-time challenge and will finally be able to overcome his great problems and make it easier for good to triumph. The film manages to suggest science as something attractive to children and also facilitates a series of humorous and pleasant moments that make this film recommended for the whole family.

With the LEGO movies there is a definite divide in quality between those they release in cinemas and those that go direct to DVD. While this makes sense it is definitely something to be aware of when watching this movie. While the cinematic releases look to satirise and question, the B-team LEGO movies are much more straightforward affairs.

There is definitely still humour and a bunch of references to DC characters and storylines, but most are pretty basic and the humour is much more child orientated. Think of this as the difference between watching a Pixar movie and one from Dreamworks. Both mostly look the same and are at least in part marketed towards kids, but one actually has some substance behind it and can be enjoyed by adults as well, and the other is pretty much kind of fun at best.

Overall there is nothing wrong with this movie, especially if you are looking for something to entertain the kids on a rainy day, just don't expect anything more from it than that.

Sure its really good but its not like a AMAZING FILM BEST FILM EVER movie. But I do for sure recommend this.
