The Lego Batman Movie is a 2017 animated action-comedy film that follows the adventures of the iconic superhero, Batman. Voiced by Will Arnett, Lego Batman is as brooding and dark as ever, despite his colorful, blocky exterior. He spends his days fighting crime in Gotham City, but his night-time routine is a lot lonelier. He returns to his Batcave, indulges in some lobster thermidor, and sits alone in front of his computer, watching romantic comedies.

One of Batman's most challenging foes emerges out of the shadows. The Joker (voiced by Zach Galifianakis) has finally come up with a plan to take down the Dark Knight once and for all. In the process, he stirs up some of Gotham's other villains, including The Riddler, Bane, and Two-Face.

As Robin emerges as Batman's accomplice, voiced charmingly by Michael Cera, he realizes that he must work with the rest of the Batman family, including Batgirl and Alfred, to save the city. But it's not just about fighting bad guys - Lego Batman must learn to overcome his fear of being part of a team, and of opening himself up emotionally.

The Lego Batman Movie cleverly pokes fun at Batman's mythology, putting a comedic spin on the character's intense demeanor. From the opening credits, which feature a self-aggrandizing rap song performed by Batman himself, the film is brimming with witty one-liners and clever references to the larger Batman universe.

Despite the film's light-hearted tone, it is also full of action and thrills. The animation is spectacular, with sleek, futuristic vehicles zipping around Gotham City and colorful explosions as buildings crumble to the ground. Meanwhile, the voice acting is impeccable, with each member of the star-studded cast bringing their A-game.

At its heart, though, The Lego Batman Movie is a film about overcoming one's own limitations. Batman must learn to trust his friends and open himself up to the possibility of love and emotional vulnerability, all while saving the city from destruction.

Although the film is packed with action and humor, it also touches on some deeper themes about what it means to be a hero. Through his journey, Lego Batman learns that a true hero must be selfless, protective, and willing to work with others towards a common goal.

Overall, The Lego Batman Movie is a hilarious and heartwarming film that will please both kids and adults alike. Its clever references to the Batman mythology, combined with its fast-paced action and underlying themes of love and friendship, make this film a must-see for superhero fans of all ages.

The Lego Batman Movie is a 2017 animated movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 44 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.3 and a MetaScore of 75.
