LEGO BATMAN - Will Arnett (Batman), Zach Galifianakis (Joker) (2/10/17) 1 1

Saw this last night with the lady. There were plenty of happy kids and geeks alike in the theatre. If you're a fan of obscure Batman villains, let me tell you ... this is the film for you.

The Lego Batman movie is about a million times better than BVS and much more enjoyable than most other DC movies.

I watched this with my son and we both really enjoyed it.  This blows away the Batman character in BVS.  They really did a great job of referencing villains and Batman's past incarnations!

This movie was a lot of fun.  Will Arnett is a great anything... but a really great Batman.

[Meeklo]

It was a really good movie. The Easter eggs were amazing and I doubt even the most die-hard Batman fan would catch them all.

Yes, 4 to 5 year olds is the target audience, honestly.

I'd say the target age was people of all ages. My 4th grader enjoyed it, the missus enjoyed it, younger kids in the audience enjoyed as did the adults I saw and heard, including myself.

Looking forward to taking my daughter to see it (maybe this weekend? )

Ok, but the music, and there was a lot of it,  was definitely targeting 4 & 5 year olds. New renditions of 80s pop hits sung by children. Arrrrrrgh...I didn't like it.

Target age is definitely not only for 4 to 5 year olds. 

Best Batman movie yet! Loads of fun. The Lego movie franchise looks to have a pretty long life

It was superb! Very funny and stuffed with almost non-stop Lego action. I'll probably go see it again, it was that good.

I wouldn't take my 4 year old though. It's not a movie for young kids and it's a bit loud.

What about 9 year olds?

9 year olds definitely. They'll have a blast but probably won't get all the in jokes.

my brother called me (niece and nephews in tow) and said this movie was awesome... he is not a geek

If there is one creative team that has figured out how to make an entertaining comic book movie, it is Seth Grahame-Smith and Chris McKay. What a super film that also is packed full of funny lines.

My kids watch this movie repeatedly. Not to say I don't mind getting another chance to watch this again. And it takes some talent to make every character in a film worth watching, including Phyllis the Phantom Zone caretaker. A simple LEGO brick, with multiple color attachments.

It's incredible how many characters and references from comic books they masterfully inserted into this movie without it becoming a distraction. Even with Phyllis she reveals that she only cares for the Phantom Zone, and that she works for the real boss of this region. That's straight out of the comic books.

The movie is delightful.  Great for kids and not bad for an aging comic nerd like myself.   Lots of "winks and nods" to our little group of fanboys.
