Critic Reviews for The LEGO Movie Videogame
The LEGO Movie Videogame's diverse backdrops and heroes devolve into tedium and busywork.
Neither a good LEGO game nor tribute to the movie—at best, The LEGO Movie Videogame is enough fun to be called a functioning promotional product.
That being said, there will be die-hard LEGO game fans who enjoy this release, doubly so if they loved the feature film. It's by no means a bad game, it actually runs silky smooth, looks quite nice on next-gen hardware, and the controls are fluid and responsive; it just doesn't evolve the base formula enough to make it stand out. The LEGO Movie Videogame is better than most movie tie-ins, but for a LEGO game it's passable at best.
It goes completely against the spirit of the movie but at least the game is able to celebrate the creativity of its developers, if not its players.
Funny, colorful, and full of personality, The Lego Movie Videogame not only successfully builds from its source material but is also a great example of why Lego games are so much fun to play.
Shorter than the current crop of Lego games, but compacted with excellent world designs and snappy action
The Lego Movie Videogame re-creates and expands on most of the film's greatest moments.
Visually creative, fun levels, great source material and packed with one of the best casts in gaming history.
