Lego DC Batman: Family Matters

Although Troy Baker and the rest of the cast are giving their best to deliver great performances - it's not enough to save the movie from it's terrible writing, which includes the story, characters and dialogue as well as the mediocre and forgettable music.

While the animation is not as appealing as the theatrically released LEGO movies in "The Lego Movie" franchise - it's still very impressive to look at, even if people complaint that it looks more like a low-budget movie or a video game quality cutscene that the LEGO games have today. The sound is great, but it does include some stock sound effects that can be found in many terrible animated movie (also in comedy movies) and the cinematography is also great, however there was a moment where Batgirl falls from a great high in her hallucination, which was caused by The Scarecrow and for some reason they cut to six different shots of the same falling and it looks very bad.

Overall it was a enjoyable movie, but contains flaws, which can really ruin the experience for a lot of people and i don't think that many would want to watch it again after the first viewing, but even with it's problems - i'll still revisit the movie again in the future and "LEGO DC: Batman - Family Matters" gets a 4.6/10.

The amount of people over analysing this movie is ridiculous.

It's LEGO for chrissakes, it's literally made for ten year olds, yet most people reviewing it here would think it had been entered for the Palm D'or at Cannes!

Stop trying to sound like you're writing a dissertation for a degree in negative film criticism and maybe watch something in your comfort zone, as films that are made for children don't seem to be your thing.

Oh, and giving a movie a low score because you didn't like a particular voice actor is not the point of these reviews, it's childish and unnecessary. It lowers ratings, and puts off people who would otherwise watch it, i.e children, who it was intended for.

My kids, who DO fit the target audience loved it, and I thought it was quite funny too.

If you're ten, then you'll love it, if you're a disgruntled twentysomething who thinks their opinion is of great importance and must be shared with the world, then you're probably better off with whatever's being shown at Montreaux or Sundance.

If you an adult hoping this will keep your attention, it's a LEGO movie... you should know what to expect. It's appropriate for my 9 yr old and that's about all that matters.

It's hard to say what the point of this movie is. It lacks the grit of the animated Batman movies with similar stories, and has at best a very tame version of the satire of the mainstream Lego Batman movies, or even the games.

You could say it is a good entry level film for kids, but it does really require at least some knowledge of the Batman universe due to the multiple characters who don't have any sort of introduction. The story definitely assumes that you know your Batman and yet doesn't try to do all that much original.

Having said that it is not a bad movie, it's a fine story and will definitely entertain any child fan. If there werent multiple other better versions of this then it would probably be pretty good, but as it is, it just seems unnecessary.

It is a funny movie. The characters are presented in a friendly way inviting various quality jokes. Batman wears his traditional costume (Adam West type) and it's a welcome tribute. Here the main generator of jokes is Batman and that is appreciated; the current way of presenting the character as a traumatized and vindictive being is far from the character we grew up with. Ideal to watch and have fun.
