Lego DC Comics Superheroes: Justice League - Gotham City Breakout

A very lite, laid back movie. It has funny moments, a nice array of Batman Franchise characters & is pretty average. It's a one time watch, nothing too special but definitely ok. It deserves a solid 6 stars.

Batman and new Robin are taking on the villains of Gotham. Batman catches Nightwing leading to his surprise birthday party. The Justice League has a gift. They are taking over Gotham City crime fighting while Batman finally agrees to go on vacation with Batgirl and Nightwing. Neither of which goes very well.

The Batman part is mostly fine. It has moments of fun. The Superman vs Joker fight is probably the highlight. It has the most potential. I would have liked something even more silly. I can think of a lot of different tricks for Joker to play on Superman. This is fun. It could be funnier. It's fine for Lego TV.

This is an unbelievably bad film. The characters are written completely wrong. Since when did Superman struggle to take on a few villains whom he even declares don't have any powers.

The script and story is such a mess and doesn't even make sense. They say it's Batman's 1 year anniversary of being Batman but we have characters like Batgirl, Justice league, Robin has already become nightwing. Batman Year One must have been busy according to the writer of this film.

Easily passable. Not worth wasting your time on this one.

This film fails on several issues: one of them is on the superheroes' own credibility. Superman is presented as a fool one who doesn't know what to do. Cyborg and Wonder Woman the same. Then Robin appears in the most surprising way as the savior of the situation. Meanwhile Batman goes on a journey to his past where despite the emergence of a single funny character is not enough for sustain the movie. It's not the best Lego movie about DC characters, it's actually one of the worst.

Possbily my favourite Lego DC Batman/Justice League DtV so far. Standout locations are Gotham, Arkham Asylum, and Joker's Fun House, whilst Madam Mantis's island Dojo looks good. Lost my attention a bit when the action moved to the 'underground kingdom', but the rest easily made up for it.

Introduced Nightwing and Batgirl, along with Beast Boy and Starfire flying the flag for the Titans.

There's a nice nod to the first foot chase with Red Hood in Batman: Under the Red Hood in the way that a certain character makes his first appearance here and how Batman deduces who he is. Some great reproductions of the covers of Action Comics #1 and Detective Comics #27 too - in Lego of course.

7.5/10
