First off, this wasn't THE LEGO Movie (And few movies likely will live up to that accolade). The Ninjago Movie was just a movie made with LEGO. If you've ever touched a brick you'll likely enjoy this movie. If not, you're less likely to.
This isn't a groundbreaking film. I doubt it's cannon for those who are familiar with the Ninjago story line, this is a big rewrite of events. But it fits that cozy realm of watchable and entertaining.
You don't have to be a LEGO fanatic to get every inside joke, but having the childhood experience of play helps. It'll make you laugh a few times, and there are indeed lots of colors. Why professional critics think that's a bad thing is beyond me. megashare9.me
This movie likely isn't for everyone. And I doubt it was intended to be. It's a kids film and stays comfortably in that realm while not boring adults to death - which is more than can be said about a number of other films for 'grown ups' in 2017.
It'll please the little tykes and meet with their approval

Fresh off the success of The LEGO Movie and The LEGO Batman Movie comes The LEGO Ninjago Movie, about an elite ninja force fighting an evil warlord by night and existing as unpopular high schoolers by day. The kids are sort of like the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, in that each of them has a distinct color scheme and elemental theme going for them, like fire, water, ice(?), earth, and lightning(?).
The de facto leader of this young crew is Lloyd (Dave Franco), whose color is green and whose theme is also green. (It's explained later.) Together, the team fights the ever-invading forces of Garmadon (Justin Theroux). The name of the city Garmadon wants to conquer is Ninjago, which looks like it should be pronounced like "Ninja Go!" but really is pronounced with the emphasis on the middle syllable: "NinJAgo." Anyway, the big secret that Lloyd and the gang hide, aside from their real-life identities as high school students, is that Green Ninja is – dun dun DUN – the son of Garmadon. Lloyd the teenager, on the other hand, is well known as the warlord's kid, and man does he bear the brunt of their ire. Kids sit on the opposite side of the bus from him. People boo him. He just has to deal, because it's what being a kid is all about, right? Now Lloyd, being a teenager, is just slightly resentful that he has had an absentee dad, so after one of the many battles with Garmadon, he takes things personal and unleashes holy heck on his nemesis. Oh, I should mention that although each of them calls himself a ninja, they're just kids in mech suits. Totally not ninja like at all. This leads to Garmadon coming back with a vengeance, and well, I think you get the idea. Someone is going to learn a Very Important Lesson here. hulu blacklist
And if that were all that was to this movie, I'd say let's leave it to the kids and never watch it, fellow grownups! But the movie does inherit a bit of the sly humor from its predecessors. Remember how, when guns were fired in The LEGO Movie, the characters would make "pew pew pew" sounds? During one long battle scene, Garmadon actually fires sharks from (presumably) a shark cannon, and each time a shark is shot one hears "dun dun dun" aka the theme from Jaws. Later on, a bigger enemy is revealed, one that dwarfs Garmadon in destructiveness – a tabby. As in a real cat. If you've ever wanted to see a cat demolish LEGOs that you didn't have to pick up, now's your chance.
I found a lot of The LEGO Ninjago Movie to be entertaining. What it lacks in creativity it makes up for in sincerity, as it never gets terribly maudlin. The characters are fun, and both Franco and Theroux really sell them well. Movie's good for kids. Rest of us can wait for home video, if at all.
Great movie for father-son cinema trip

Walking to cinema with my 5yo I had big doubts if this will not turn on like Lego Batman. An overly dynamic film with nothing but gags. To tell the truth I was physically tired after watching Batman, due to all this chaos that was happening there. Ninjago is totally different movie and as a family movie it works better than previous two Lego movies, maitaining dynamic action sequences. What one NEEDS to know is that this is a complete restart of Ninjago universe (like with Spiderman movie series). Although characters are the same, whole story, origin, background is different. Can you imagine Ninjago without Spinjitzu? You'd better, because only time we will hear about it will be in a joke scene.
This is a new generation's dawn of Ninjago. It can easily turn into a series. What I regret is that movie does not relate to TV series. Basically you can be totally fresh in Ninjago universe and go watch this movie. My 5y did not complain though.
Cute movie made for kids

I loved the previous lego movies so I went in to this one not knowing it's from a TV series for small children. To be honest it does stand alone and if the kids in the theater weren't pointing out things from the show I wouldn't have even known about the series.
It does appeal to children under the age of 10 as the whole movie is written in away that makes it seem like it's happening in an 8 year old's mind. From the kindda corny dialogue to the super obvious "hint hint" that was happening... also sharks, why would a mech shot sharks and crabs at you.... meh whatever.
It was corny, it was a bit too obvious but in the end I wasn't the target audience for this movie and I still had fun with silliness and some of the jokes in it come at you from left field. There was more then one child in the theater pretending to do karate while the movie was going on and once the end song started so I'm going to say the they had their audiences attention.
A good movie for a family night with the little ones.
Jackie Chan has never been better!?!

This movie is a cinematic masterpiece. Growing up watching the show ninjago how couldn't anyone be so excited for the movie. Following the characters the ninjas on a quest to save the lego realm from breaking into a million pieces. In order to save brick city the ninjas have to team up with batman from the lego batman movie to defeat insert evil name. Not only is it a fun watch for kids but a pretty neat experience for all ages. If I had one complaint however it would be too much ninja not enough lego. Also I didn't like the different voice actors and character models. But overall this movie is an 11/10 masterpiece. Can't wait to actually see this movie it's going to be better than the emoji movie for sure which was only a 10/10. At first I thought Jackie Chan's best movie was rush hour 3 but now it must certainly be this wonderful delightment of a movie.
