Controls could be better – The LEGO® Movie Video Game Review

I'm enjoying this game. It has a wide variety, much more so than usual Lego games. It isn't just walking around, sometimes you are sliding, flying, controlling carts, etc. Unfortunately sometimes that variety gets confusing and you have levels where you are unsure what to do at first but eventually you figure it out. Unlike most Lego games, when you die you have to restart the level. It's not that big a deal, though, I haven't died very often playing. There are clips from the movie at the beginning and end of most levels. That makes it more enjoyable. The "Everything is Awesome" song plays at the end of each level as it tallies your score. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the controls. I often find it difficult to get my character to do what I want it to do. One of the more difficult challenges was the moving platforms on the cloud level where you had to move precisely between them. It took me quite a few tries to get it.
