Bionicle: Mask of Light 2003 Review
15 April 2021
"Unity, Duty, and Destiny." Bionicles were my absolute favorite thing throughout my entire childhood. All the iterations of these beloved toys I adored, all the way up until they were canceled and replaced with the less superior Hero Factory line. I collected every figure in every era, so it's an understatement to say I cherished this film as a kid.

That all goes to say this was not nearly as good as I remember it being. The animation, script, voice acting, and fight scenes are all comically bad.

I wish they went for more of a Lego Movie approach and made the world / characters actual Bionicles, especially for characters like Makuta who honestly has almost no resemblance to its toy counterpart, it just would've made the movie that much better.

Part of this film will always have a special place in my heart because of my love for the Bionicle line of toys and pure nostalgia, but this is honestly a terrible movie.
