The Lego Movie 2

(G, 107mins)

The Lego Movie was one of the biggest hits of 2014. It used Lego mini-figures and building blocks to tell the story of a power struggle in a kid’s playroom. Chris Pratt did a fine job of voicing Emmet, an insanely optimistic construction worker who becomes an unlikely hero. Elizabeth Banks was his true love Wild Style, Will Arnett the impossibly conceived Batman, and all reprise their roles in this sequel which involves a mysterious attack of Duplo (baby Lego). It’s neither as busy nor original as the first film, but it’s still extremely funny in parts and skates along with giddy and irresistible joie de vivre.
