The Lego Batman Movie is directed by Chris Mckay, who is best known for the television series Robot Chicken.
This super satirical story spotlights the Dark Knight's solitary lifestyle, the Joker's desire for his arch-foe's respect, and Dick Grayson's necessity for family. This all culminates into a surprisingly sentimental flick.
TLBM features the vocal talents of several celebrity personalities. This includes but is not limited to Will Arnett as the narcissistic vigilante, Michael Cera as Dick, Bruce's accidental acquisition and ally, Zack Galifianakis as the lovelorn lunatic, the Joker, Ralph Fiennes as Alfred, the careful caregiver, and Rosario Dawson as Barbara, the commissioner's tenacious child. The voice acting is solid across the board. Galafianakis performs an impressive Joker. Probably my favorite of the bunch. He's no Hamill, Ledger or Nicholson, but he's definitely up there.
The funnies find you instantly as the film kicks off with snarky commentary on common movie elements. It pokes fun at this as well as other Batman films, characters, and comic book lore in general. There are many laugh out loud moments, which are truthful testaments to TLBMs comedy prowess.
In a time when all children's computer created productions look identical, TLBMs animation is appropriately admirable. This is apparent in the art style which is unique and vibrant. The animations are staggered to emphasize the clunkiness that keeps the stocky figure's forms. The CG resembles actual Legos and, as a result, feels as a session of child's play, which emphasizes the playful tone of this world that is not excessively self-serious as our favorite Batman films are.
The plot is predictable but still induces true feelings of humor and empathy nonetheless.
This film is heavily focused on the importance of relationships, with the most interesting portrayal of such being the relationship of the hero and his foe, shown in such a fresh and fun manner.
Ironically, the film's main fault is that the jokes are a little too frequent. Overall, TLBM is a fun time.
