The Lego Movie

Senior Staff Pick

Currated by graduating senior staff at the UWM Union Cinema. The first-ever full-length theatrical LEGO movie follows Emmet an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving his LEGO world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers — including an old mystic and LEGO Batman — on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant from gluing the universe together — a journey for which Emmett is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared.
