The Lego Movie: Episode 4

The Lego Movie: Episode 4 is the fourth installment in the WB Lego Movie franchise. The film is directed by Mike Mitchell and produced by Dan Lin, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The film was released on November 5, 2021.

Plot
Emmet decides to film Sweet Mayhem's big party at Wayne Manor in the city of Batman's hometown Gotham City. But when Sweet Mayhem has more than a lot of people at her party and cause havoc at Wayne Manor, it's up to Emmet to find a way to stop her party bash before things go way out of control.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) It's a huge improvement over The Lego Movie 3: Born To Be Wyld. And while that film may have brought back the charm of the WB Lego Movie franchise, this one is a perfect fourth installment.
 * 2) The voice acting is still good.
 * 3) The film can be seen as a family friendly version of Project X (2012), as the characters don't drink beer, alcohol or wine, don't strip bikini's, smoke, have sex nor cuss.
 * 4) The concept of lego figurines throwing a huge party is well executed and not taken seriously.
 * 5) Emmet is no longer dumb than he was in the 3rd movie, especially Batman and Unikitty.
 * 6) The way that Sweet Mayhem becomes a villain is pretty cool.
 * 7) Even without an original score, the songs by different singers are easily catchy. Mostly the A Trak remix of Heads Will Roll.
 * 8) Wonder Woman's enemy Donna Troy decides to be a respectful person by not attending the party and helping Emmet and the gang take down Sweet Mayhem's party.
 * 9) The characters who attend the party have their usual forms from the video game Lego DC Super Villains.
 * 10) Regarding WIR #6, the soundtrack is great, notably the song "Shine Supernova" that plays during the end credits, along with Lego video game animation.
 * 11) Some songs from The Lego Movie 2: The Scond Part return such as Catchy Song and Everything Is Awesome (Tween Dream Remix)
 * 12) It does have a few emotional moments including Emmet trying to make an apology video to Batman and Wyldstyle, and it happens again near the end of the movie, but at that time, he fully tries to apologize despite not being his fault.
 * 13) Sweet Mayhem's defeat is rather cool as she is transported to the same world that Emmet went to in the first movie, but instead she is seen by a bunch of her Duplo friends.
 * 14) The original characters are all likable once again, like Emmet, Lucy, Batman, Donna Troy, Benny and of course, Metalbeard.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Bad Release Date: The film opened the same day as Eternals, but just like A Bug's Life 2, it was saved from bombing at the box office.
 * 2) Unikitty is sadly absent from this movie. Even though it's clear that Wyldstyle said that Unikitty decided to go and try and rebuild her home.
 * 3) Some product placement like Mountain Dew and Oreo's.
