The wizard Vitruvius attempts to protect a superweapon
called the "Kragle" from the evil Lord Business. He fails, but
prophesies that a person called "the Special" will find the Piece of
Resistance capable of stopping the Kragle.
Eight and a half years later, an ordinary construction worker
named Emmet Brickowski comes across a woman named Wyldstyle searching for
something in the construction site. When he investigates, he falls into a hole
and finds the Piece of Resistance (revealed to be a Krazy Glue cap). Compelled
to touch it, Emmet experiences vivid visions and passes out. He awakens in the
custody of Bad Cop, Lord Business' lieutenant, with the Piece of Resistance
attached to his back. There, Emmet learns of Business' plans to freeze the
world with the Kragle (revealed to be a tube of Krazy Glue with the label
partially rubbed out) at "Taco Tuesday". Wyldstyle rescues Emmet and
takes him to the Old West, another "world". She explains that the
every "world" used to be connected with people from different
"worlds" helping each other in everyday activities. However Lord
Business abhors the thought, and constructs walls to separate all the
"worlds".
In the "Old West", Wyldstyle introduces Emmet to
meet Vitruvius. She explains that she and the wizard are Master Builders,
gifted people capable of building anything they need without instruction
manuals. She further explains that due to Business' disapproval of such
anarchic creativity, Master Builders are actively hunted down by Business, led
by Bad Cop. Although disappointed to find that Emmet displays no trait
possessed by Master Builders, Wyldstyle and Vitruvius are convinced of his
potential when he recalls visions of a humanoid deity called "the Man
Upstairs", the person who is said to be the creator of all the
"worlds".

It was funny, sad, meaningful, boring... overall okay lah! The moral of the story is teamwork with every single person is uniquely creative in their own way. Yeah... I get that. Watching those Legos come to life was cool but it somehow lacks a certain zest. The whole movie was like a roller-coaster ride... at times it was exciting and at times it was dull. Like I mentioned earlier... overall okay lah!
