Overview
An ordinary Lego mini-figure, mistakenly thought to be the extraordinary MasterBuilder, is recruited to join a quest to stop an evil Lego tyrant from gluing the universe together.
Introduction
One day, everything changes for Emmet, an ordinary construction worker.
Emmet is a normal guy that follows the instructions for life, until he is falsely named as the “special.” Emmet meets a lot of new friends that want to take on Lord Business before he tries to use the “Kragle” to end the world. Will Emmet and his friends be able to stop him? Will Emmet become a master builder?
Ripe Apples
Emmet is a very likable minifigure who follows all the rules and is shown doing it. He is a very social person who talks to many people. When questioned by a cop, he tells the truth, though the cop refuses to believe him. Emmet even makes a team that help him stop Lord Business’ plans.
Emmet even goes far enough to show self-sacrifice. In the end he talks to someone and explains why they are doing what they are doing in a nice way. He even offers for this person to join him. Normally people are just against people just because of who they are. but this is not the case.
Rotten Apples
In the beginning of the movie, Lord Business steals the Kragle from Vitruvius, which is wrong. Also Emmet lies to someone telling them that he is the special, but later admits he isn’t.
Also there is a questionable mention of the Maker that master builders have to commit years of emptying they’re mind to get a glimpse of him. The Maker is a human that owns all the Legos. He is referred to “the man upstairs.” This may not agree with some parents. Also one person says to Wildstyle that she has a “heavenly body.”
When it comes to blood there is none. For language there is a few uses of “oh my gosh”. d–g –“, and “butt.” One crude joke is made about somebody putting there butt on someone’s face. There is also a joke about “where are my pants?” on TV where a guy with a shirt and underwear comes on screen, though it’s just Legos so it isn’t a real big deal.
