i was (and still am) a huge Bionicle fan, but I have to say this is a really great film. It is a perfect introduction into this world - it's very accessible for younger kids and there's definitely enough action and awesome looking animation for older kids. The story is not incredibly complicated, so you don't have to be an expert on the 'mythology' to watch this movie - you can just put it in and go. I'm sure we'll get to learn more about the origin of the Hero Factory and other characters as time goes by and LEGO begins to tell us more backstory, but this is a ton of fun from start to finish. The animation looks fantastic and you can tell there has been a lot of effort put into this movie, it's not just one of those junky DVD movies that other toy companies put out just to sell toys. This is a first class production with a good story, really fun characters that is totally worth watching. Also, it's got a great cast, John Schneider (Bo Duke!), Henry Winkler (the Fonz!), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker!) and Malcolm McDowell!!!! Kudos to LEGO for keeping the quality bar so high in its productions (Bionicle, Clutch Powers and Atlantis - which is included as a bonus on the DVD!). Read more
My wife and I had the pleasure of keeping our 5 yr old Grandson for 11 days and He(and I)watched this LEGO Hero Bot movie 2-4 times a day. He loved it and so did I. It has really goog writing for the genre and visuallyand action wise is perfect. We rented it from the library by chance, but I ordered him this one and the one other available as soon as he was going to leave to take to him as surprises. He is a really good athlete for his age and quite smart. The point is , these are not "dumbed"down. Great price and value and perfect for 4-10 yr old boys and girls who are into this type movie. I am a Pediatrician and nothing you would not want your child or grandchild to see. Read more
This was a good movie, the kids enjoyed it an all ages can watch it. It was bought as a gift and ended up being used on multiple occasions during gatherings with kids, the kids tend to watch this and use their indignation to act it out later so it also helps them to exercise. I recommend the lego movie series and would by again in the future if the need arise. Read more
From my 4yr old girl on up to my 10yr old boys,all my kids enjoyed this movie! It was full of exciting action and had some funny humor here and there too. Good animation. Interesting story line...rookie "Hero" is a diamond in the rough and works his way to the top...it even kept my interest :-) Read more
I bought this for my son's 8th birthday. He has all the Hero Factory robots, and I knew he would love this movie. I was not wrong. I believe this is the Nicktoons miniseries from Fall 2010. We did not catch it on TV, so I am glad that LEGO put it out on video. This has been watched at least 4 times in the week that my son has had it. The LEGO Atlantis short movie has probably been watched 10 times. Overall, this movie is a hit, and I highly recommend it. Read more
