Dear Lord, what utter garbage

Lego is a premium brand, be it the kits or the games, yet they produce this?

I managed 30 minutes and gave up, another thread says you have to be 10 to enjoy it, that is far too generous and I would say anyone above 5 should struggle with it.

All the other studios that produce family or kids films and yet they can easily be watched and enjoyed by adults.

But this? It was absolutely atrocious and that was obvious from the first few minutes.

I was prepared to give it a go but after half an hour it became too much, is this really where 21st Century kids are at? Not much hope for the planet.

I accessed it for free on Amazon Prime and I want a refund, where do I go?

Good God, what a traumatising experience.

You must be a very sheltered individual to think that this fun little children's film was a traumatizing experience. You gave zero insight on the film and you just spat out pointless adjectives and nothing substantial instead of telling us why you hated it.

The first 15 or 20 minutes are intentionally shrill and annoying and full of nonsense. About 3/4 of the way through there's a curveball that puts the whole film into context... you can't judge it fairly after half an hour.

Watch it until the end, or admit that you've lost any sense of childlike joy and only know cynical hyperbole.

I wouldn't say traumatizing. But holy *beep* it was loud and annoying. I didn't like it, and I hated the Everything is Awesome song. Just couldn't stand any of it. Seizure inducing movie, from start to finish.

I think you kind of missed the point... Who would have thought it was possible? it's not exactly subtle.

Your dear lord doesn't exist, as doesn't your taste in good movies.

The OP sounds like a moron.

Do you have any talents?
Well, I'm an Alcoholic.

I only made it 30 minutes in as well. It was way too obnoxious for my taste.

That was the point of the first half of the movie.

As with any journey, you can't understand the beginning without looking at it from the end.
