"Well, children can be cruel..."
Building (sorry) on the huge success of The LEGO Movie, Batman moves centre stage in this frantic, funny, colourful, big-hearted and enormously enjoyable movie. Not only does this film refer to all the incarnations of Batman through the ages, it also takes in a huge number of DC/WB (super)heroes and villains, making it play out on a huge canvas (everything is designed on a massive scale) but keeping it very focused on Batman and his budding family for the emotional heart. It might not have Chris Pratt or a song to match Everything Is Awesome, but The LEGO Batman Movie rolls along at a cracking pace from start to finish, it is well-packed with gags and references, the voice cast deliver the witty script with relish, and it is quite simply great fun.
