The Lego Batman Movie does not, at first, strike one as a sad movie. It's clever, funny, and full of colourful toys. But we have to remember that the movie is based on the tragic character of Bruce Wayne. The movie is about a man, or to be more precise, a Lego figurine, who refuses to let his guard down. When Bruce Wayne is at home alone, he chows down on microwaved lobster and watches sappy movies by himself. He talks morosely to a framed picture of his deceased parents. While foiling the Joker's sinister plans, Batman also slowly opens himself to his new friends Robin and Batgirl.
