Batman LEGO: La unión de los superhéroes

The box might say "LEGO Batman - The Movie", but it features . . . well, pretty much everyone in the DC stable. This is essentially World's Finest with Batman's rogues gallery and the JLA thrown in. Even so, it being LEGO puts a nice spin on such well-worn story material, and there are plenty of made-out-of-bricks gags. This may have been direct-to-video, but it's another win for WB; the voice cast is great, they use the Elfman and Williams scores (homage-y, not cheap) and the characters really come to life. I liked the friendly rivalry between Batman and Superman, and Batman's constant shaming of Robin.

I had a lot of fun with this and there's plenty of potential with LEGO properties. Where's the sequel? C'mon, while we're young, people! 7/10

And, meanwhile - Back at the Batcave.... Batman kicks some serious butt (with a little help from all his super-friends, of course)....

Even though LEGO Batman's story of over-the-top, superhero crime-fighting pretty much went over the same, old ground, I still enjoyed this particular CG offering a helluva lot more than I did the likes of Christopher Nolan's live-action "Dark Knight" movie-series. I really did.

Besides LEGO Batman containing some often-humorous one-liners (nicely delivered by both Batman & Superman), I also got quite a delightful kick out of the LEGO-look of all the characters.

From having some very amusing facial expressions, to their squat stature and stubby legs, I'm actually looking forward to checking out other LEGO movies once they become available through my city's library system.

Of all the superhero characters featured in this picture's ultra-violent, fast-paced story, it was Flash, in his brief, but pivotal appearance, who I liked the most.

This is a film adaption of the Lego Batman 2 video game that I enjoyed years back. I have to say, I love how the movie improves on the video game at least. I'm just going to mention a few of my favorite improvements:

1. Bruce Wayne actually giving his speech at the "Man of the year" awards.

2. Lex and Joker being equal threats. I hated how Superman was out for the count on the final battle of the video game and the others took down Lex without him.

3. Adding Catwoman. She is my favorite Batman character, and I'm glad they gave her more screen time.

This happens to be the best Justice League film so far, the reason being is that if you want origin stories for these characters, you just need to watch the animated shows that the characters were based on in the DCAU. They also happen to get the personalities of the villains correctly, which is something that the modern DC Extended Universe fails on miserably. Overall this is a great fun movie and possibly, the best Justice League film made.

At first I thought this movie would be kind of like "The Avengers." The movie turns out to be very different! All the Marvel superheroes and everything else are made out of Legos. It is more focused on Batman as a man and other heroes like Robin, Super Women, Super Man, the Green Lantern and many others.

This move has a mix of comedy which I've noticed is in every Lego movie. It has action, adventure, great actors and even a lifelong lesson - sometimes you can't do things all by yourself, you need help. There are some pretty cool structures and machines. All these structures are built out of Lego bricks so you can really build them yourself if you knew how!

The adventure begins when Bruce Wayne wins the "Man of the Year" award. If you don't know who Bruce Wayne is, he is Batman undercover. Then, the Joker commits a crime and Batman and Robin have to capture him once again. As they are trying to achieve their goal, Superman helps him. Batman gets annoyed with Superman but, at the end they work together and call in all the superheroes to defeat the Joker! If you want to know what happens at the end you must watch the movie.

What I love about this funny, action-packed film is how it shows the relationship between Robin and Batman as somewhat difficult. This isn't very good for a side-kick and a hero. At the end though, they become good friends. Also, it shows all the heroes' powers like Superman's strength and Batman's throwing skills. The best part for me is how everything is made out of Legos. And, as in most Lego movies, there are cool animations, good actions and great voice-over actors.

My favorite scene is when the bat cave gets destroyed. It's action packed and shows Joker's "funny" side with his strange humor and his pie bombs. Superman helps them. But, the Joker and his partner Lex, who is running for president and using Joker to win election, gets away. Would you like to know how he was able to defeat Superman's power? Get a copy of this wonderful film and find out!

I recommend this film for ages 3 and up. There's really no violence or harsh language in this movie. "Lego Batman the Movie" is extremely kid- friendly. I give this movie 5 out 5 stars. You can find it on DVD everywhere now.

After watching this film for the 10th anniversary on my digital hard drive for Bricktober here's my spoiler-free review of LEGO Batman: The Movie - DC SuperHeroes Unite! As usual, I'll be talking about my thoughts, comparing this with the game and my favourite moments & my conclusion/rating! The movie follows the same plot as the LEGO game and features returning voice actors like; Troy Baker as Bruce Wayne AKA Batman, Clancy Brown as Lex Luthor etc. Just like the game instead of watching cutscenes on YouTube, you're watching a full-feature short film! My favourite moments are; the music that was used from the Tim Burton 1989 movie scored by Danny Elfman and the action scenes! Overall I believe that kids will enjoy this film equally as The LEGO Batman Movie! That's why I'm giving this a 6/10! Go watch all the cutscenes on YouTube for LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes or watch the movie either way you'll have a good time entertaining yourself! ;-)
