Can a movie made of plastic bricks keep you entertained for 90+ minutes? Join us as we humorously journey through our unexpected viewing of The Lego Ninjago Movie. We admit, our decision was purely for the laughs, and let's just say we found ourselves multitasking midway. As expected though, we have to dissect Lego Ninjago, and that means we must highlight the film's star-studded voice cast and praise its animation quality.

But is humor enough to save an underwhelming film? While the infamous "L-Loyd" joke brought some smiles, our excitement dwindles as we discuss the film's pacing, length, and missed opportunities with its talented cast. We hit all the classic beats for this episode, from comparing this to other Lego hits like The Lego Movie and Lego Batman to acknowledging our slightly bitter adult perspectives, we leave no stone unturned—or should we say, no brick unstacked.

Letterbox'd Synopsis:  Six young ninjas are tasked with defending their island home of Ninjago. By night, they’re gifted warriors using their skill and awesome fleet of vehicles to fight villains and monsters. By day, they’re ordinary teens struggling against their greatest enemy…high school.
