Collecting and smashing everything together it can from the Batman mythos, The Lego Batman Movie is exactly what the brand of DC needs. After a rough 2016 filled with endless amounts of unfavorable reviews, directors leaving, and crazy rumors, DC finally has another global hit. Unfortunately, this isn't an entry into the struggling DCEU, instead, it's the next installment into the rapidly popular Lego franchise. Although no Batman film will probably ever come close to the quality of Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy, The Lego Batman Movie does its very best to pay tribute to everything good and bad within Batman's history. Surprisingly, that approach works to near perfection. Perhaps because of my love for Nolan's Batman, I'll never prefer a comedic take on The Dark Knight, but this is exactly what this character needed. Poking fun at things like Batman's weird and sometimes unethical relationship with Robin, Gotham City's habit of being in peril (yet people still live there), the useless rogues such as Condiment King, Batman's unwillingness to work with others, and of course, the ups and downs of the character's theatrical runs. Just as Rogue One was a Star Wars film for hardcore Star Wars fans, this is a film for people who have loved Batman for years, even decades. There are easter eggs and hidden gems that will make even the harshest critics smile. I hate to keep bringing up DC's troubled live-action run of late, but this is such a pleasant surprise. It's the wake up call that Warner Bros needs to realize fans don't always need everything to be dark. Nor do they need to interfere as much with the director's vision. Chris McKay clearly understood Batman, and he gave us one of the best Batman scripts to date. The film isn't without its flaws, though. At 105 minutes, it definitely feels a little long for an animated feature. I probably could have done with a scene or two cut out as the ending battle did feel it was dragging on a bit. Also, because of the nature of a Lego adventure, the animation tends to feel a little too chaotic and even headache inducing at times. There isn't a frame that looks unfinished or flawed, but sometimes this type of animation is a lot to take in. The story is sweet and touching without being overly emotional (finding that perfect balance of comedy and drama), and manages to fit in so many quotable jokes and memorable moments. I never thought hearing what Batman's password is would make me laugh out loud. Nor did I think I needed to see Robin alongside Batman in a feature film again, but they made it work. That has to be what's most impressive, they made things work that shouldn't work in a Batman film, to extraordinary levels. The Lego Batman Movie is the film we deserved and most certainly needed. +Fits in so many tributes & jokes within Batman mythos +Balance of comedy and drama +Doesn't take itself too seriously (ahem DCEU) -A bit long & chaotic at times 9.0/10
