"Lego Star Wars: Revenge of the Brick" is a 5-minute animated short film that is a combination of Lego and Star Wars as the title already tells us. Actually, apparently, this is a short remake (you will recognize the title perhaps) of the most recent Star Wars film before J.J. Abrams took over most recently. So yeah, what is there to say? I personally am neither a huge Stars Wars or Lego fan without despising either, but I do believe that you need to like both in order to appreciate this short film. One probably isn't enough. I myself thought this was fairly uncreative as it brings nothing new to the table in terms of many aspects, including story-telling and soundtrack too. Visually it isn't bad, also in terms of effects, but apart from the very ending I was also not too impressed as it is basically one space battle scene following the next. It's the first Lego Star wars film written by Daniel Lipkowitz and several others should follow, some of them better than this one here. Pretty shocking to see so many directors working on such a brief movie. I give it a thumbs-down overall. Not recommended.
