RELATED: Why 'The LEGO Batman Movie' Is Secretly a Rom-Com Even someone like Killer Croc can have a chance to be memorably amusing. The wacky and zippy atmosphere at play means that there’s room for all the toys in the Batman lore toybox to get a chance to be played with. Live-action takes on the character either opt for storylines that can’t handle so many characters or are going for a serious grounded approach that won’t accommodate the likes of Condiment King. What makes The LEGO Batman Movie different, though, also makes it a great time that other Batman features could take some notes from.įor starters, it’s a riot to see how The LEGO Batman Movie utilizes every conceivable figure from the Batman mythos, including the character’s vastly deep bench of baddies. This is a comedy, and a gag-a-minute comedy at that, with whip-fast pacing and a cheeky postmodern wit informing every frame.
Meanwhile, unlike other past animated Batman titles like Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, The LEGO Batman Movie isn’t striving for the dark tone of many live-action projects. It’s disconnected from every other incarnation of Batman and instead a spin-off of the 2014 motion picture The LEGO Movie(hence why Will Arnett reprises his role as LEGO Batman).
Released in February 2017, The LEGO Batman Movie is an outlier in the world of Batman films and not just because it’s animated.
