Lego Ninjago is the third film in the Lego series and this time concerns the Ninja Force a team of high school kids who pilot giant Mechs and protect their home city Ninjago from an evil warlord named Garmadon but when he destroys their mechs in an attack the Ninjas must travel through a secret forest to uncover the true secret of their power and stop Garmadon once and for all.
Lego Ninjago is sadly a big disappointment of a film and it’s a real shame as I really liked both the Lego Movie from 2014 and this years Lego Batman movie and like those films this one has some nice Lego visuals that do make you go “Wow this looks really neat” and also makes you wonder how all of it was built plus there was a cute Kitty Cat in the film.
But unlike Lego Movie and Lego Batman this movie does not have either an interesting story or interesting characters and after a while I started to get really bored and checked my watch more than once as it all feels very predictable with the father and son reconnecting, the team learning to work together, the big revelation where everything comes into focus which sometimes can work but most times just feels like an attempt to wrap up the plot in a quick manner and the whole learning to love your true parentage which again can work but sometimes like here can feel very patronising.
And so that was my review of Lego Ninjago and it’s a real letdown from the 2 previous Lego films and I would watch those instead, 1 and a half out of 5.
