Before going to any sequel, I always get really worried that it can't possibly live up to the original. This was especially true in the case of The LEGO Movie 2. I was BLOWN away by #1--a totally original story that was visually stunning and had me laughing the entire way through. I was thus SO surprised and pleased when this movie lived up to the first one in absolutely every aspect! It was every bit as original, as funny, and as touching as the first one! Here are the highlights of the movie, in my opinion:
*BRIEF SYNOPSIS (minor spoiler alert): This movie takes place five years after the end of The LEGO Movie, during which time the young boy from the first movie has grown into a teenager. His LEGO building preferences have changed, and his quaint and orderly "Brickburg" has descended into the gritty chaos of "Apocalypseburg" (based on Mad Max). The only one of his vast LEGO collection who's immune to all the grit is Emmet, The LEGO Movie's hero, who's still firmly attached to the idea that "everything is awesome." When an alien invader penetrates Apocalypseburg's defenses and forcibly abducts his friends (including Wildstyle/Lucy, Batman, Unikitty, etc.) to "The Systar System" (the younger sister's room), however, Emmet believes that he needs to toughen up to rise to the challenge of rescuing them. He is aided in this quest by the rugged and mysterious Rex Dangervest. But as the pair of them work to rescue Emmet's friends from the powerful Queen Whatevra Wa'nabi ("Whatever I Wanna Be"), Emmet slowly discovers that not everything is as it seems...
*LEGO ARTWORK: Just like the first one, The LEGO Movie 2 is chock-full of absolutely beautiful LEGO designs! It isn't actually filmed via stop-action with real LEGOs, but you'll often have to check yourself since they go a good ways to make it appear like they did! My favorite LEGO artwork in this movie include Apocalypseburg, the Rexelsior, the wedding cake spaceship, and the music decibel bars that Wildstyle uses at one point to make her escape--super clever!
*SONGS: They obviously knew they had a good thing going with "Everything is Awesome" from the first movie, and I'm SO glad that they decided to add more music numbers to this movie! The whole soundtrack is fantastic, with "Catchy Song" and "Not Evil" being my two favorites.
*HUMOR: I found this movie every bit as funny as the first one, with special highlights being the various references to Chris Pratt's filmography (i.e., as a first baseman in "Moneyball", a raptor trainer in "Jurassic World", etc.) The creators also take full advantage of the many references they have license to make, like when one character refers to Emmet as "a Hufflepuff" and when they provide subtitle translations for the raptor sounds from Jurassic Park. :)
*TRUE TO REAL-LIFE LEGO SIBLING STRUGGLES: Finally, just as The LEGO Movie highlighted the "age-old" clash between adults and children sharing the same LEGOs, this one focuses on the struggle between siblings. Having shared LEGOs with my own siblings, many moments in the show forcefully reminded me of my real-life experiences with LEGO culture.
I would enthusiastically recommend this movie to all fans of both LEGOs and The LEGO Movie. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

The heroes of Bricksburg are back in an epic action-packed adventure to save their beloved city! It’s been five years since everything was awesome and the citizens are now facing a huge new threat: LEGO Duplo invaders from outer space, wrecking everything faster than it can be rebuilt. The battle to defeat the invaders and restore harmony to the LEGO universe will take Emmet (Chris Pratt), Lucy (Elizabeth Banks), Batman (Will Arnett) and their new friends to faraway, unexplored worlds, including a strange galaxy where everything is a musical. It will test their courage, creativity and Master Building skills, and may just reveal how special they really are.
