Lego Movie Review (Spoilers)

Was lucky enought to check out the Lego Movie at the weekend in a super early preview. It is an awesome movie, animation is very cool and the look of it is fantastic, plenty of Lego references for young and old, !!SPOILER ALERT!! President Business is trying to make sure everything stays perfect using the Kra..Gl.e or Krazy Glue as we know it. Only the piece of resistance (which we discover is actually the lid of the Krazy Glue) can stop him. Much later in the movie we discover that the whole thing is being played out by the son of Will Ferrell (in the movie not actual son) in a very large basement filled with lego diaramas, City, Wild West, Space Etc. Will Ferrel (Dad) does not want his lego models played with as in his mind Lego is not a toy, so, he intends to glue everything in place to stop his son mucking around with it. Very clever and enjoyable movie. We see Lego being used in very creative ways by the master builders and the message being pushed here is very much that Lego is whatever you want it to be, throw away the instructions and build whatever you can imagine. This is where all the 2 in 1 sets come into play with the citizens of the city building all kinds of flying contraptions from standard vehicles in order to fight Lord Business. The movie is fantastic and for me promotes the real meaning and message of Lego.....that is is whatever you can think of.
