A few bricks short of a load
"The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part" (PG; ⋆⋆½) should be called "The Lego Movie: The Worse Part." The kid from the close-to-perfect "The Lego Movie" has grown up just enough to be crabby when his little sister wants to play alongside him with her Duplos, setting up a toy battle. Clever, right? But the frenetic movie skitters from action scene to action scene. The Chris Pratt/Elizabeth Banks duo remains very appealing, and the moral is another sweet one. But some of the magic is gone.
