The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part - Another Fun Movie from the Lego Universe

I was kind of looking forward to this movie after my wife and I saw its trailer few times earlier as it reminded us about the funny characters in the first movie. So when it finally premiered yesterday, I was quite happy when it had a 7PM show in the theater near our home which would be easy for us to go to. Well we should start with the movie now.

Brief Story Line

After the events of the original movie, the city Bricksburg had been having multiple attacks from Duplo invaders for five years which made the city became ruined and the citizens very tough. Except for Emmet (Chris Pratt - Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Passengers etc) who remained very positive and still thought everything was awesome, despite his girlfriend Lucy (Elizabeth Banks - Pitch Perfect 3, Walk of Shame etc) who wished for Emmet to become more mature. 

The LEGO Ninjago Movie - Another Movie Based on The Popular Lego Bricks

It has been almost a week since the last time I saw a Hollywood movie on its premiere date. I have been on a short "hiatus" from watching new movies in theaters as I could not bring myself to do so due to the new movies were not that new and exciting. Anyway yesterday there were 2 movies premiered in Indonesia which was quite surprising considering both were truly new and were not even scheduled to play in US theaters till Friday. Actually my wife and I were looking forward to see another movie, but the cinema where we wanted to go to, did not show that one at our usual preferred schedule 7PM. So we went to see this movie instead. And what was the movie all about? Let us find out more.

Brief Story Line

In the city far far away called Ninjago, there was a boy who just turned 16 named Lloyd Garmadon (Dave Franco - Nerve, Now You See Me and its sequel etc). He was not feeling excited on his birthday due to his father was the most notorious evil villain Garmadon (Justin Theroux - The Girl on the Train, The Leftovers TV series etc) who tried to conquer Ninjago all the time. Lloyd's mother nicknamed Koko (Olivia Munn - X-Men: Apocalypse, Ride Along 2 etc) tried to convince Lloyd to enjoy his day but it was very challenging with everyone being so judging to him.

The LEGO Batman Movie - The Other Side of Batman, Like You've Never Seen Before

I had another night of enjoying the premier of new movie yesterday with my wife. It was originally intended for us to see this movie today, but since I was able to finish my meeting earlier than I anticipated and my wife also finished her trying of new places quite fast, we decided to go for the latest show at 9.25 PM at Setiabudi XXI, the cinema nearest to our home. The really funny trailer to the movie was the main reason why we were really interested to see it as soon as we get the chance. Anyway, I won't be writing too much on this part and get on to the important part, i.e the story line. Be warned though that this time around, I am unable to write the brief story line without revealing some of the plots since that trailer only revealed very little information. So for those who prefer to be completely surprised, then you can skip this part and go straight to my views below.

Brief Story Line (warning possible spoiler)

Gotham city was under attack by Joker (Zach Galifianakis - Hangout trilogy, Keeping Up With The Joneses etc) with the help from his sidekick Harley Quinn (Jenny Slate - The Secret Life of Pets, Zootopia etc) and lots of Batman's enemies such as Two Face, Riddler, Scarecrow, Bane , Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Clayface. Joker was very sure that this time around he would be able to capture Gotham since he got a whole army with him plus a large amount of bomb that were put underground of the city. To Joker's surprise, Batman (Will Arnett - The Nut Job, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows etc) showed to the location of the bomb to fight Joker's army all by himself. As usual, Joker and team were able to escape from Batman as he had to choose to save the city. Joker was very disappointed though, since Batman never considered him as his greatest enemy and ran away with his heart broken.
