Reviews:
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he chief target is the Dark Knight himself, hilariously voiced by Will Arnett as a grumpy churl and preening egotist that helmer Chris McKay delights in undercutting at every opportunity." - 02/04/2017 Total Film

4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his gag-packed, knockabout action-adventure has a lot of fun with the character....It is relentlessly, consistently funny..." - 02/04/2017 The Guardian

"[I]t’s kicky, bedazzling, and super-fun. The second thing to say about it is that, like THE LEGO MOVIE, it’s a kiddie flick that’s been made in a sophisticated spirit of lightning-fast, brain-bursting paradox." - 02/04/2017 Variety

"[The filmmakers] find no shortage of satirical targets, taking sly aim at everything from SUICIDE SQUAD to Donald Trump’s taxes....Performance-wise, Arnett certainly gives it his disaffected all..." - 02/04/2017 Hollywood Reporter

"Director Chris McKay and his six-man writing team also throw in a lot of references to Batman lore." -- Grade: B - 02/06/2017 A.V. Club

"[I]t draws upon decades of Bat lore for its inside jokes and cultural references that zip by faster than any souped-up Bat vehicle." - 02/09/2017 RogerEbert.com

"[A]n impish, big-hearted parody that also happens to be the best Batman movie since THE DARK KNIGHT..." - 02/09/2017 Los Angeles Times

"[T]he star of the show in every sense is Will Arnett, reprising his entertainingly growly Dark Knight from the previous movie....Arnett’s voice work is pure Christian Bale parody, of course..." - 02/09/2017 Boston Globe

"[P]retty irresistible. It’s silly without being truly strange or crossing over into absurdity..." - 02/08/2017 New York Times

"[I]t’s a wry piece of meta-commentary that deconstructs everyone’s favorite moody hero using the anarchic animated style of the Lego world." - 02/10/2017 The Atlantic

4 stars out of 5 -- "It’s a film dense with jokes, the writers riffing successfully on both this sullen and arrogant iteration of Batman and the character’s rich and varied history." - 02/07/2017 Empire

3 stars out of 4 -- "Will Arnett may have found the role of his career voicing the growly Dark Knight as a delusional, ego-centric freak willing and eager to mine laughs out of his own psychosis....THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE rises on its own goofball spirits." - 02/08/2017 Rolling Stone

"THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE looks and feels like it could only have been put together by a roomful of mad geniuses, moving in a ballet of well-choreographed creativity: It’s simultaneously epic and humble." - 02/09/2017 Washington Post

"[T]he family-friendly animated superhero comedy maniacally blisters the screen with loving homages to past Bat-flicks, wacky baddies, wickedly clever references and one very unsubtle message: Don’t be a jerk, be a pal." - 12/26/2017 USA Today
