Using careful aesthetics to separate brother and sister by blues and pinks, Lego Movie 2 sports variety in droves. Some early explosions feature purples, blues, and oranges, this backed by warm lighting. At distance, peeking at massive Lego structures, the seams still show between pieces.īeing a Lego world, this comes doused in color. The way bricks show fingerprints, plastic chips, and fading paint still dazzles. However, any consequences remain hidden under gobs of pure detail. In comparison to top-end, true 4K material, yes, Lego Movie 2 appears slightly soft. Even when traveling through space, there’s always something powering Lego Movie 2 visually including engine exhaust or explosions.Īs with all animated offerings so far, this is a 2K rendered source. Given the deep black levels, intensity reaches blinding tiers. Filled with intense lights ranging from sun to lasers to LED lights.
LEGO MOVIE REAL OR FAKE 4K SERIES
Right in line with the prior series on 4K, this is a dazzler. (Note: An A/V review of the first Lego Movie on 4K UHD is available by subscribing to our Patreon) As the core of this Lego series, it’s holding up its own end.
Regardless, entertainment value is there, requiring a few watches to catch all that’s buried in the mayhem. Lego Movie 2’s instant-on gratification doesn’t seem to think so while selling bricks and brick people.
The frenzied pace and mass of attractive color questions whether a new generation has patience for building stuff. Musical numbers joke about their routine and action laughs at the miniaturization. So instead, the focus shifts to narrative purpose, something meatier to guide this self-admitted predictable fantasy. Lego Movie invented this realm of living bricks and its rules the shock of seeing real world objects pop up doesn’t work twice. That frantic, unstopping pace, the pop culture barbs, some parody, and a bit of satire play in. Apparently Dangervest wants to be a critic too. Maybe that’s some of Dangervest’s cynicism poking through. That’s still unavoidable here – Lego brings families together again in this sequel – and with a wider product range to exploit. In the first movie, seeing Will Ferrell was a surprise reveal, a sentimental and sappy way to sell more Legos while father and son bond over the pricey product. A boy plays with spaceships, girls play with glitter that’s just how things work, and the divisive standard Lego Movie 2 is fighting against. It’s a brother and sister at war, the two unable to compromise or play together. They can’t mix, and that’s the center of Lego Movie 2’s conflict. Boys toys and girls toys? Separate things. Emmet wants to crash a wedding ceremony Finn wants to smash his sister’s Lego builds. In this adventure, Emmet turns from jolly “Everything is Awesome,” to a social construct of what is needed from men.Īs a pair, Emmet and Finn turn into jerks. Friendliness is dropped for anger, kindness for aggressiveness. Emmet’s happiness is exchanged for cynicism. He’s a standard hero – egotistic, brash, and he trains velociraptors. A coming change affects both Emmet and Finn, too-perfectly calibrated between them, coming-of-age as much as it is a way of separating genders.Įmmet pairs with an alter-ego, Rex Dangervest. His chosen brick person is still Emmet (Chris Pratt), happy and positive even as an apocalypse befalls this Lego city. Finn, the child at the end of the first Lego Movie, is nearly a teenager as Lego Movie 2 begins.
