Lego DC Batman: Family Matters

After being bored with a board meeting after stopping Solomon Grundy from stealing a magic staff, Bruce Wayne puts a new machine revealed, Brother Eye, in charge, as he proceeds to sell Wayne Tech. However, this leads to Two-Face buying the company, and plotting to use Brother Eye to take other Gotham and destroy both Batman and Bruce Wayne. Also, Red Hood has arrived to challenge the Bat Family.

While some people may not like this, this is actually a good film for kids who are not yet ready for films like the ones in the DCEU or the Dark Knight Trilogy. As a result of this being a Lego DC movie, they did change Red Hood's origin story to be more kid-friendly, however, seeing as the Lego DC films are part of their own continuity, it should not be a problem. Also, the movie has some good references to classic Batman shows and cartoons (one scene has the bat poles from the 1966 Batman series, complete with automatic suit up, and another scene has a Grey Ghost playing as Batman and Two-Face duel with swords, a neat reference to the episode from Batman: The Animated Series).

However, there can be some annoying things (Nightwing and Batgirl keep bringing up a missed text that got them on non-speaking terms, which they never shut up about), but this is a good DTV movie and one that is perfect for younger kids or anyone into Lego or superheroes.

Decent movie, stopped paying attention early on, still alright to watch though. Couple good jokes

LEGO DC Batman: Family Matters (2019) is a movie I recently watched on HBOMAX. The storyline follows a villain known as Red Hood who wants to tear apart Batman and his friends - Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl and Alfred. Red Hood will be aided by Two-Face, Scarecrow and other legendary villains. Can Batman and team stop this mysterious villain? This movie is directed by Matt Peters (Lego DC: Aquaman) and contains the voices of Tara Strong (Loki), Christian Lanz (Coco), Troy Baker (Batman: The Long Halloween), Tom Kenny (Transformers) and Jason Spisak (Piranha 3D). The storyline for this is very entertaining and does a great job of delivering Red Hood while mixing in other key members of the Batman universe. The animation is excellent as is the dialogue. The fight scenes are awesome and I loved how the Scarecrow was depicted. The Bruce Wayne vs Batman conclusion was also clever and well executed. Overall this is an entertaining film worth your time that I would score a solid 6.5-7/10.

It is a funny movie. The characters are presented in a friendly way inviting various quality jokes. Batman wears his traditional costume (Adam West type) and it's a welcome tribute. Here the main generator of jokes is Batman and that is appreciated; the current way of presenting the character as a traumatized and vindictive being is far from the character we grew up with. Ideal to watch and have fun.

Lost interest when heard batman's voice was different...
