The Lego Movie, 2014

The second theoretical animated feature film of 2014, The Lego Movie, is getting praise from the critics! It currently has 22 fresh reviews and is (for the time being) 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. It is uncertain if it will stay 100% all the way, but it does give a surprise to some people. Here is what Rotten Tomatoes critics say about the movie -

Boasting beautiful animation, a charming voice cast, laugh-a-minute gags, and a surprisingly thoughtful story, The Lego Movie is colorful fun for all ages.

The Lego Movie assembles in theaters on February 7, 2014.

A Good Start

The upcoming animated movies are getting some early positive review on Rotten Tomatoes. The Lego Movie directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller duo currently has 1 fresh review on Rotten Tomatoes. Peter Debruge from Variety says:

Phil Lord and Christopher Miller irreverently deconstruct the state of the modern blockbuster and deliver a smarter, more satisfying experience in its place, emerging with a fresh franchise for others to build upon.

My most anticipated movie of 2014, Mr. Peabody & Sherman currently has 2 fresh reviews from Rotten Tomatoes. Mark Adams from Screen International says:

An action-packed animated romp that will attract - and maybe even educate - a young audience, and might even strike a chord with reluctant older adults who recall the original cartoons from the 1960s.

And Andy Lea from Daily Star says:

Witty, beautifully animated and surprisingly educational, DreamWorks' time-travelling adventure should impress kids and parents in equal measure.

So...anyone excited for the upcoming movies?
