Featured reviews
So this movie is just a documentary of Pharrell Williams life. But it is done amazingly well. The idea to make a documentary about a music guy in Lego is genius, cause it can visually show what someone is feeling.
The movie was executed well. The pacing is really solid and keeps you intrigued while keeping the story slow enough to process.
Acting is pretty great, Pharrell Williams did a good job but his mom is who stood out the most to me, said lines and made it feel like they were said in that time. Same with the director, his acting was so good and added a lot to the story.
Emotional impact is meh, it's an inspiring story and emotionally ig you can get mad at the bad buisness men.
The cinematography is beautiful. Gorgeous for a documentary. There is more than one great shot in this movie but one of my favorites is a shot from behind Pharrell Williams when he is watching the speakers as they play music and there is like lights coming out of them.
The music is incredible, sound design is pretty good but one of my favorite things about this movie is that it is integrating music constantly and using that to keep flow. It's so dope.
There is a theme of working hard and not quitting which is always good. But there is also some really unbiblical themes which makes me really mad and frustrated (easily one of the reasons I dropped it a rank)
I have watched this movie twice and it's enough, watching it 2 times is good but after that now I'm not super excited to see it.
Really great movie, just a disagreement with themes, seeing cursing in an animated movie isn't fun. But yeah great movie for the family is the kids are over the ago of 12.

A biopic about Pharrell Williams but it's done with legos, cool and original. But you have to ask your self who was this made for? Cause it's to boring to be a children's movie and most adults would not watch this cause they would think it is a children movie. I watched it my self last night and I found my self quite bored, this biopic being done by Lego was the only thing saving this movie otherwise no one would be interested aside from Pharrell Williams super fans. Also I don't know how focus features have been surviving all year, they're the only movie company where the theater has been consistently empty every time I go even piece by piece only had a total of 5 people. The 2 other movies I've seen by focus features this year the auditorium was completely empty and I was the only person in the audioturm, that's very rare for me to be all by my self in a theater.
Piece by Piece is a stunning exploration of creativity through the medium of LEGO animation. The film captivates with its vibrant visuals, particularly the breathtaking sea, speed boat and sunset.
What sets this film apart is its narrative style, utilizing interview voices to weave Pharrell's story within the fabric of the animation. The rhythm of the beat is palpable throughout, making it not just a visual treat but an auditory one as well, creating a deeply immersive experience.
Don't miss it in a cinema. It's made for the big screen with its vivid colours and super sound track played loud!

Well i had no clue that we owe so much to Pharrell Williams.
All the music he has been involved with making for 30 years !
Its a lego movie, not your usually type, but interviews with Pharrell and people in his life and who he worked with, all turned into lego in a fantastical type of way.
Its nothing short of excellent.
I learned alot i had no idea about the music industry, and how people work together, and that Pharrell has had his hand is some very successful music over the past few decades.
It is cleverly done, and the characters even talk about being in a lego movie.
By the end of the movie the whole cinema was hopping, clapping and singing along. It was mostly kids.

The idea of having a Lego movie that documents the life of Pharrell Williams is so unique and creative and it is the type of thing I would love to see more of in Hollywood. The film has some really nice animation and when the animation moves to the music it looks really cool. The movie basically serves as a documentary about Pharrell Williams which is nice and it's really funny seeing all of these legends from the entertainment industry in Lego form, especially Snoop Dogg. In classic Lego movie form this movie has heart and humor, and can be enjoyed by the whole family. I also like how even though this is a Lego movie the film didn't really hold back on some of the more adult elements of Pharrell's story. Morgan Neville did a good job directing and I think this is a pretty solid and entertaining watch.
Did you know
- TriviaAnimal Logic, who animated the prior four theatrical Lego Movies did not return to do the animation for the film, as it would be considered cheating on Warner Bros., despite Lego and Warner Bros. both sharing the rights to the original franchise. Instead, the animation was done at Pure Imagination Studios in Los Angeles, and Zebu Animation Studios in India. Both Pure Imagination and Zebu have previously recreated the style of the original film franchise through theme park attractions, PSAs, and Les Simpson (1989) episode "Brick Like Me (2014)".
- Crazy creditsA disclaimer in the end credits reads, "Not everything in this film is 100% accurate. For example, Pharrell never went to space."
