What to Know

Critics Consensus

Despite ample charm and a few solid gags, The Lego Ninjago Movie suggests this franchise's formula isn't clicking like it used to.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Very silly, very funny and particularly recommended for fans of hokey chopsocky films and kittens. Rated: 4/5 Oct 15, 2017 Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times Lego Ninjago, conversely, can't sustain its central joke over an overlong 101 minutes. Everything is not quite awesome. Rated: 3/5 Oct 13, 2017 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) Just as Toy Story did by featuring an owner of the toys, it reminds us that these films are about play and imagination. Yes, they're also effectively feature-length adverts for Lego, but this is rampant capitalism at its most arch and entertaining. Rated: 4/5 Oct 12, 2017 Full Review Paul McGuire Grimes KSTP-TV (St. Paul, MN) Easy entertainment for the kids even if it's not as original as the others... Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 5, 2020 Full Review Leigh Monson Substream Magazine There is still a lot of the old LEGO charm floating around... Rated: 3/5 Oct 1, 2020 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review When I say this is my least favorite of the three Lego animated films, I don't mean that as an insult... In fact, The LEGO Ninjago Movie is still quite spirited, funny, and fully enjoyable. May 13, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Dave Great fun to watch! Lord Gramadon stole the show!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Audience Member I have a lot to say about this movie, i will try to keep it short. to anyone who didn’t know the lore, the story and characters make little to no sense, while anyone who does know the lore will be disappointed that it diverges so far in every aspect, making this movie look unrecognizable in comparison to the franchise, being most disappointed by the potential this movie had. this movie may have been the worst of the 4 lego movies, but the bay is so high that this still manages to be ridiculously funny as well with good dialogue, great line delivery, and a touching(but slightly fragile), mostly coherent story. 7/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Conrad C The animation team was let down greatly by whoever wrote the dialogue. Snappy combat scenes are separated by cringe-worthy lines and round after round of awkwardly matching the ninjas with their elements. The complete disregard for the lore is obvious to non-fans, and a slap in the face to anybody who has seen the series. There's a few great lines (mainly courtesy Kumail Nanjiani's Jay), but there's no doubt you'll walk away wondering how they got this movie so wrong. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Charlie M Insanely underrated. Doesn’t reach the highs of the first Lego movie, or the Batman one on a story level, but it is every bit as funny, and still offers some heart. I was laughing out loud constantly at its clever jokes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/30/24 Full Review Echo G Even though the movie didn't follow the series I still found it funny and entertaining, a lot of memorable scenes too I love it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/21/24 Full Review Wovy P i love this the movie 😍😍 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
