The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part [Blu-ray] [2019]

The movie is good but not on the level as the first one, mainly on the story aspect. Steelbook is really nice, although I would really liked other characters having a bigger picture since they only appear on the front as a reflection, other than that I like it.

-Feature: Had few funny moments but not as much as the first. They tried way to hard this time around. Pros: -Picture; 3D availability. -Sound; 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio had tons of demo reference, low end frequencies that really subbed the woofers in a really good way. The explosions & pounds are top notch! I up-mixed the surround to DTS:X simulation. -Digital Copy; Yes. Cons: -3D; Lacked even for an OLED where it shines. Some depth but not enough. No pop outs or enough demential effect. -Sound; No Atmos even on the 3D disc which is the biggest led down. The biggest reason I got it thinking both were on the 3D disc. Only on the 2D disc which defeats the purpose of my buying 3D & not cheap too. It’s discouraging to watch it twice back to back to listen to the Atmos track which should’ve been in the 3D version in the first place. -Digital Copy; limited. Only HD, no 4K Dolby Vision/Atmos full version upgrade. -Slipcover; No lenticular cover. -Gear used for sound & visuals: LG 65’ C6P 4k/3D passive OLED (manually calibrated) 9.2 Onkyo RZ + pre amp for 7.2.4/11.2 (integrated calibrated then manually tweeted with SPL sound level meter & balance/adjust for full dynamic range) Klipsch Reference Premier towers center sides rears dual R112SW subs Polk Audio MC80 8’ quad in-ceiling heights Oppo 4K UDP-203 Monster cables: Premium Black Platinum HDR HDMIs, THX Audio RCA, Digital Subwoofer Cables & Fiber Optic Ultra 1000 Monoprice 14 gauge awg copper speaker wire Nakamichi Speaker Plugs Auralex Acoustic Isolation platforms

This Movie Was Great, Batman Was So Funny I Was Just Laughing Every Time He Spoke. Great 3D Effects Loved It.

Cute sequel, and a nice addition to my collection.

Its just as good as the first one. Catching songs and whole lot of adventure, the kids loved it for sure. Also its fun for even the adults with everything super cool outrageous and amazing! The best part is watching the credits!

Bought the 3D blu ray and it did not come with a 3D disc, only 2 copies of the 2D version. If you’re looking for the 3D, be sure they’ve included it.

The original Lego Movie remains an ingenious, beloved film that brilliantly mashed up humor for both the target audience of youngsters and the adult parents that brought them to the theater to watch it. The Lego Movie 2 is another fun romp with Emmet, Wyldstyle, Batman, Unikitty, and company. As the aforementioned parent to a youngster who loves the Lego movies, and who enjoys them just about as much, who also greatly appreciates the consistent acknowledgments in the humor for us older moviegoers, the Lego Movie 2 largely continues that tradition. It continues, quite valiantly, the same quantity of humor for the parents, but the quality, for the first time among their big budget releases, staggered a bit. It's not all misses, but it's not all hits, either. Hopefully, this is a one-off rather than the beginning of showing cracks in the foundation with the well running dry. In that regard, the effort was appreciated, it was just a shame more of the attempts didn't stick the landing. On the kid's side of the film, my son enjoyed it very much. The efforts here paid off much more than on the aforementioned parents' side, but... and I have to state that it's both to be expected with such a near-perfect film such as the original, AND it's not nearly a "miss" that should be concerning, but even here, the kids' side didn't quite resonate as strongly with my son. Enjoy it, he most certainly did, but the continuation of joy after the credits rolled didn't last nearly as long. I think a good portion of this is due to more predictability. There isn't much here that will come as a genuine surprise, despite several attempts. It's almost all easy to figure out where it's going- again, not due to a lack of attempt (while my son, at age 5, didn't audibly state "he knew that" (which he does at a (non)shockingly high rate, nowadays, lol,)) he also wasn't floored by any of it, and the adults will quickly see the clues, it's just THAT LITTLE of a "letdown" that it's impossible not to compare it, rather than view it as a continuation, to the original. Now, let none of this scare you off. On a whole, LM2 is a worthy film to add to the collection, to keep as one of those rarely listed family films that truly is designed to entertain the ENTIRE family. It has a hard time keeping up with the original, and what film wouldn't? But, considering its pedigree, it can't help but be just a bit of a letdown in that regard. In 4K, and this is also important, some of the best usage currently available is found in animation. Lego Movie 2 looks downright gorgeous, particularly combined with HDR. Plenty of brilliant uses of lighting and color really pop here, and if you have the setup for it, it's the best way to enjoy the movie.

Not as good as the original but a worthy follow up.
