The LEGO Batman Movie

Hosted by Joe Morgenstern Feb. 10, 2017 Entertainment
The LEGO Batman Movie targets the familiar universe of superheroes and extravagant villains, with a subplot reminiscent of The Incredibles -- society has come to see Batman and his ilk as vigilantes who need to learn the value of teamwork.

The frantic pace of The LEGO Batman Movie can drive you beyond distraction to the brink of dissociation. It's really funny, though, an animated send-up of comic-book epics that vanquishes solemnity with the power of supersilliness.
