The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part Reviews
It’s like being on a rollercoaster that you don’t want to get off of.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 14, 2024
The first film’s narrative was intrinsically tied with building things and creativity, ideas heavily associated with Lego. This just feels like a generic kids movie adventure that would work with or without the Legos.
| Original Score: 4/10 | Jan 22, 2023
There are smart ideas being worked out here, but the direction doesn’t feel as if it utilizes them fully this time around.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 4, 2022
It is so much... you smile the whole time.

It's not just some throwaway cash-grab movie that's made just for children; it's not the most revolutionary thing in the world either, but it did put a smile on this face from start to finish.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 3, 2021
Ultimately, The Lego Movie 2 proves to be endlessly inventive and extremely funny - and there's more than enough for brick lovers of all ages to enjoy. For the most part, it seems that everything is still pretty awesome.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 28, 2021
You can't really fault Lord & Miller and their team for going all out in an attempt to entertain us, but The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part is more of an exhausting experience than a truly enjoyable one.

The Second Part is still a testament to the creativity that has blessed big-budget animation and children's programming in recent years-but everything can't be awesome forever.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 28, 2021
Quirky, fast-paced and incredibly detailed ... Charming to no end.

The forgettable Lego Movie 2 is one big tiresome letdown.

I was surprised at how well-written and clever the script was. Because of this, I believe audiences of all ages can enjoy it due to the array of cultural references and adult humour.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 19, 2020
Trust me, parents. You'll be seeing this film more than once.
| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 13, 2020
Even if the story gets a bit too meta for younger audiences to truly grasp, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part will still thrill them with its non-stop action. And best of all, it will make your kids beg you to buy them Legos when the lights come up.

[W]hile the first movie threaded its pointedly ersatz ethos into a much grander milieu, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part keeps its ideas as separate as its characters.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 28, 2020
The 2014 original was better as a one-time surprise that no one saw coming, rather than a building block for an entire franchise. ... If "everything was awesome" the first time, everything is now just average.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 24, 2020
I notice the absence of the spark, the sense of humor and the surprise effect that made the two previous films so entertaining. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 5/10 | Jul 20, 2020
The Lego Movie 2 is certainly a quality work as far as its pure entertainment value, but I wish the filmmakers has devoted slightly more screen time to what gave the first film its heart.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 16, 2020
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part explores much of the same territory as its predecessor, but the returns have diminished somewhat.
| Original Score: B | Jul 8, 2020
With simple jokes, references and impeccable comic timing, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller keep the LEGO magic intact. [Full review in Spanish]

When the movie ignores the, "Look, it's your favorite childhood toy come to life! How cool is that?!" factor and concentrates on being funny, there are some really good moments.
