The Lego Batman Movie
Well, I mean, it was extremely funny although you were probably already expecting that. If you thought the Lego Movie was funny or share a deep appreciation for dumb little boy humor, you will laugh during this movie. And if you did not think that the Lego Movie was funny and don't share a deep appreciation for dumb little boy humor, you will laugh during this movie.
The Lego Batman is about Batman's basic life style (in a spoof-y honest way) but mostly focused on the character, his loneliness, deep dark secrets, and being faced by his greatest fear; relationships.
Plot was...Honestly I don't even remember the plot. I'm not sure there was a plot. That also means I didn't find anything wrong with it. But it was entertaining and exciting (and hysterical) and very emotional. For me any way, I rate emotion and humor and entertainment above plot. This movie was almost completely built on those things.
Characters were fantastic. Well developed. Lovable. Only character I didn't adore as much was the female character, whom I felt was too much like Wild Style from the Lego Movie, which weakened her character development and made her less special. But she was necessary and funny. Tolerable I suppose.
Only other thing I don't think I liked was perhaps a repeat or two of the same joke.
I'm giving a special round of applause to Robin.
And not only was this movie exhausting in humor, it was also heart wrenching-ly emotional.
Warning! Expect some tears. And don't drink soda while you watch this. You never know something will sneak up on you, and if you're taking a drink at the same time, the results could be hurtful.
On a scale from 1 to 10, I would the Lego Batman a 9
Arrival
Emotional. Silent. Although it was about Aliens, it wasn't so much action as it was gripping, clever, and incredibly well developed in plot.
In Arrival, alien ships land on earth in very random locations, and interpreters work with the government to go into one of the ships and try to communicate with the aliens.
Although the main idea sounds simple enough, the details of the plot were incredibly thought through and mind blowing. I wouldn't be able to summarize it for you.
Acting was good. I thought they had a very interesting line up of actors that I would have never thought of for the roles, but did well and made the movie even more unique. Seriously, who would have thought Giselle and Hawkeye?
Very emotional. Had a great plot twist. Had an ending I might compare to Inception if you have ever seen that. Twas quite sobering.
There's actually not much more to say.
On a scale from one to ten, I would give Arrival a 9
