Children's animated adventure, introduced with a short live action backstory where Marla (a teenage girl) gets her own passport and wants to travel. Late one evening Marla is babysitting Charlie (her brother), there's a knock at the door, and the police are there. We realise their parents have been in a tragic road accident.
The plot jumps forward 4 years and Marla is responsible for Charlie, her traveling ambition has been shelved. Charlie has a squabble with Marla and runs off, Marla is able to track his whereabouts via a phone app. Marla finds Charlie at a games convention and they are both sucked into a colourful, animated Playmobil adventure.
They get separated, the plot switches to a rescue mission involving several characters in different action and chase scenes with some musical numbers.
This is aimed at very young audience, the movie won't appeal much to parents, especially as there are much better Lego movies to compare with.
I laughed twice. Mya (our granddaughter) liked it, she's 9 years old. Stay in your seats for a short post credit scene, taster to a potential for a sequel.
