The Lego Movie


And here I was thinking Pixar was the only company with their animated shit together. The Lego Movie is such a blast I couldn't get enough of it. The visuals are an absolute dream here. All of the colors and tiny details (even their showers are impressive) look immaculate and I would be shocked if this didn't receive a Best Animated Feature nomination next year. The music played is ridiculously catchy, all of the characterization is terribly clever (I especially enjoyed The Green Lantern isolation bit) and there's a nice little twist at the end I enjoyed as well. And to add to its' saving graces, Morgan Freeman kills it as Vitruvius, the mentor of the group. Everything is awesome.

3/4
