The Lego Batman Movie, 2017 - ★★★★

I always wanted to watch this again, especially after seeing it so high (No 6) on my films of the year list - was it really that good? Well, perhaps not but it is still very good. As expected I spotted a lot of new things unfortunately one of those was a strong resemblance to Trump. I still think it's the best superhero film of the year (with only Spider-Man coming close) and it's definitely the funniest which may be more important than the story.

The niggles are minor:

I still object to Kong
It annoys me that Barbara and Alfred don't initially wear masks, especially when the photo is taken
The solution to Gotham coming apart is just weird and makes little sense
