Okay maybe not but at the very least it's a very high bar to set. The Lego Movie is not only the must see film of the late winter season, I'm going to go ahead and call it now it's the best family-oriented film for all ages of 2014. I honestly couldn't have been more wrong about a film in my life. In addition, The Lego Movie managed to muster a staggering 93% on, an unheard of fresh score in the February film graveyard.
