There are big changes brewing in Gotham, but if Batman (Will Arnett) wants to save the city from the Joker's (Zach Galifianakis) hostile takeover, he may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up. Maybe his superhero sidekick Robin (Michael Cera) and loyal butler Alfred (Ralph Fiennes) can show him a thing or two.

Critics Consensus

The Lego Batman Movie continues its block-buster franchise's winning streak with another round of dizzyingly funny -- and beautifully animated -- family-friendly mayhem.

Michael Sragow

Film Comment Magazine

The Lego Batman Movie mostly proves that this franchise has already descended into a disappointing formula. These movies flash a subversive hook, then straighten it out as they streak along.

The result is an ideal movie for the school holidays, one that children of all ages will rock along with (Batman fancies his own singing) and adults will laugh at.

Rated: 3.5/5

Emotion can reside in the unlikeliest packages. But there's not a lot of it on show here. The animation, however, is terrific and fans of the original should love it.

Rated: 3/5

Keith & the Movies

The onslaught of gags can be relentless, sometimes to the point of making them impossible to follow. It’s a shame because the movie has some big laughs (and I do mean BIG).

Rated: 3/5

The sequel is the very definition of too much of a good thing.

It's Arnett's show, taking the egotistical dope who was such a delight in The Lego Movie and making him even more absurd.

The movie was very intense. It was an all or nothing adventure with “no going back” and “no plan B”. Batman’s lonely and reclusive life really hit home in this one.

Audience Member

This is the best batman movie ever made. No representation is truer to his character, or anywhere near as saturated with whimsy. Every second of this movie is perfect, and is dripping in the richness of raw artistic expression. The logistics of Hollywood with budgeting, and executive control are often the Disney that chokes out the Jon Favreau of a situation, so to speak, but this movie is exempt from tarnish. It ages well, does not falter with the context of this postmodern world, and will always be a bat signal leading to the commissioner's humanity, a public reflection and guide to where one might find the childlike wonder within himself.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
