Details Edit
The movie incorporates a diverse range of existing LEGO themes into a single plotline, including Mars Mission, Space Police III, City, Power Miners, Castle (2007), and Agents. It was developed by Tinseltown Toons and was published by Universal Studios. The trailer for the movie was first shown on the 2853367 BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn DVD.

Plot Edit
The movie begins with Clutch Powers, the most famous LEGO explorer, trying to retrieve an energy crystal from an underground cave. He finds the crystals, but spots a large energy crystal in the cave as well. Clutch pulls out the crystal, which awakens an orange Crystal King, and he is chased through the cave. Just as he is about to escape, the Crystal King blocks the exit with a boulder. Clutch then wrestles the King using the Mine Mech but is thrown out of the Mech, and after that, he spots a pile of LEGO bricks. He visualises what he could build: either a racecar, a hoverboard, or a slingshot. He decides to make a slingshot and gets working. Meanwhile, the Crystal King realizes that Clutch is not in the Mine Mech anymore, so he continues to chase him but knocks over a tower and gets pinned. Clutch finishes the slingshot and launches himself at the boulder. Just as he is about to escape, the crystal reveals itself to be a Rock Monster baby. He puts a stud pacifier in the baby's mouth then builds a stroller for it. Clutch returns the baby and apologizes, and is rewarded with an orange energy crystal.

After this, he drives his Agents car back to the LEGO building in LEGO City (he destroys a construction site on the way there), where he is introduced to a team of three (Brick Masterson, Peg Mooring, and Bernie Von Beam) by his boss Kjeld Playwell that will help him in his next assignment: investigate a recent prison break on the Space Police prison planet X4. They are introduced to Arthur Fol who swears to be Clutch Power's "number one fan" shows them the spaceship he has built for them. He shows them the miniature model [it has a spinner] then when Brick asks how are they going to fit in, Artie shows them the real life version. The group travels to the prison planet in Mars Mission outfits. Bernie suggests that he should guard the spaceship, but Clutch refuses. They can't open the door, so Clutch builds a giant key to open it [Brick says that this is the first time anyone has to BREAK INTO a prison]. Then, while analyzing the base, Brick burps, and Clutch tells him to keep an eye out behind them. One of the prisoners, the evil wizard Mallock the Malign, attacks them and then leaves in their ship. They meet the Space Police watch commander that has sent Kjeld a garbled distress call earlier who explains to them that Mallock plans to harness all the forces of evil together and steal the deceased King Revet's powerful golden sword, now in the hands of Prince Varen. They make a new ship, with a failed first attempt.

After a tip from Kjeld Playwell, the group travels to another planet, Ashlar, that is in the setting of the Castle (2007)story line. Brick tries to parallel park the ship, but knocks over Legohenge, a play on Stonehenge, in the process, which upsets Bernie. Clutch looks for the prince and the rest try to build a battle cart at an old abandoned mine (They meet Lofar the Dwarf which has assumed they're villains but calms down once Peg tells him they are here to defeat Mallock.). Peg finds a dragon and gets burned by its sneeze while Brick and Bernie work on the cart. Clutch encounters Hogar the Troll, who challenges him to three tests that will allow him to cross a bridge, while Mallock tells Skelly and Bonesto find Clutch, who will lead them to the prince. After finishing the three tests, Skelly and Bones find Clutch but Hogar eats him, smacks the two skeletons and runs away (He spits Clutch out after entering the wall hiding the castle.). He finds the prince, who refuses to help. So Clutch returns to his team, who have finished the cart and are about to attack Mallock's castle when the prince comes back and elects to help them, along with his army. Clutch and the prince sneak into the castle while Peg wears the prince's crown and leads the knights against an army of undead skeletons with a large battle that ensues. Clutch and the prince finish off an enchanted suit of armor, but are captured and hung in a cage by Mallock. The knights retreat, and Peg, Bernie, and Brick crash the cart, in which they start to argue. Mallock forces Hogar to give him the golden sword of King Revet, which Prince Varen brought to the Skeleton Tower. If he doesn't, Prince Varen and Clutch won't be seen again. Mallock thinks Hogar is tricking him when he discovers the chest is empty and throws him toward the wall. But Clutch and the prince, whose images are reflected into the night sky, send the team a message using bones: LEGO, which is translated by them as "Build on each other." So Bernie, kissed by Peg, rebuilds the cart into an Off-Road Jeep. Peg flies her dragon in and frees Clutch and the prince, while Brick flies in with a jet pack to finish off Mallock's skeleton guards, Skelly and Bones. Bernie helps Brick by throwing the leftover part (an orange gear) at the two skeletons. Another war ensues. Varen tells Clutch that he doesn't need to find his father, because his dad is with him in his heart. Then they face off against Mallock. The prince arrests Mallock and is crowned king, the skeleton army is destroyed, and the team returns to LEGO City, where they are assigned their next mission, to find another prisoner on the other side of the galaxy.

Notes Edit

 * The name Clutch Powers is a reference to the "Clutch Power" of LEGO bricks. Clutch power is the ability of LEGO bricks to stick together yet come apart easily.
 * The abbreviation of Artie's name as shown on his name tag, "A.FOL", is a play on AFOL, or Adult Fan Of LEGO.
 * Clutch's torso is the same as Indiana Jones', with the LEGO logo printed on his left arm and a red watch on his right wrist.
 * Clutch wears a Power Miners's headgear in the opening sequence.
 * In the movie, Clutch awakens an orange version of the Crystal King. However, in "LEGO City: A Clutch Powers 4-D Adventure", he fights a green version.
 * While Clutch and his team are dressed as Mars Mission astronauts on the flight to Mars, they get there on the Galactic Enforcer, a Space Police III set.
 * Mallock is featured in the set 7093 Skeleton Tower, though his name in that is simply "Evil Wizard". A larger and more elaborate version of the Tower is featured in the movie.
 * Several minifigures make cameo appearances in the closing credits, including Agent Trace, Captain Brickbeard, Doc, Inferno Henchman, Squidman, Space Police III Officer and Troll Warrior.
 * The movie was shown on Disney XD on April 12 ,2011. In it, the word "LEGO" is removed to avoid copyright issues.
 * In the movie, minifigures are referred to as "mini-figs."
 * There is a theme throughout the movie about Burrito platters with extra garlic.
 * Non-LEGO objects like donuts, car keys, etc. appear in the movie.
 * The DVD's cover states that this is the first LEGO movie on DVD. This is not correct, there were severalBIONICLE movies released before this. It is however, the first LEGO movie with Minifigures as the main characters.
 * "Clutch Powers" is referenced in Ninjago masters of spinjitzu when Cole says that Clutch Powers is the one who found the Constrictai fangblade and started the Royal Blacksmiths.

From Wikipedia:
The film starts with the Thunder Driller (from the Power Miners theme) digging up some dirt. In it is a man called Clutch Powers (Ryan McPartlin) and he jumps off looking for a power crystal. He sees a variety of them, but finally sees a large one. He grabs it and suddenly the Queen Rock Monster wakes up and chases Clutch to his Underground Headquarters. Clutch gets the power crystal by shooting himself over the Queen and ends up stuck in a cave. However, the crystal opens up to reveal itself as a Rock Monster baby. Realizing his mistake, Clutch returns the baby to the Queen, apologizing for his action and stating that he only wants a power crystal. Understanding the point, the Queen Rock Monster gives Clutch a real power crystal, allowing him to leave.

Clutch returns to Lego City and hands the crystal to his boss Kjeld Playwell (Paul Michael Glaser) who assigns him some new teammates: Brick Masterson (Roger Rose) firefighter weapons specialist and demolition expert, Peg Mooring (Yvonne Strahovski) a biologist, and Bernie von Beam (Jeff Bennett) an engineer. Using the crystal to power up the supercomputers, Playwell informs of an incident in the Space Police prison planet when chaos occurs regarding to the imprisonment of the three most wanted criminals in the Lego galaxy. He then orders Clutch and his team to investigate the situation at once, despite the team's lack of cooperation and Clutch's intent of working alone. They meet up with Arthur 'Artie' Fol (Jeff Bennett) who is a Clutch Powers fan. He creates a police space ship that will transport them to the prison planet, so they leave in the afternoon. Peg meets up with Clutch and finds out that he had a dark past with his lost father Rock Powers; it is also revealed the symbol in the Space Prison video footage during the attack is the same one in Rock's journal regarding to his last whereabouts. Before Clutch can speak further, Brick interrupts to tell them that they have arrived at the planet. They get into their astronaut suits and they enter the prison building.

They see that someone is stuck in one of the prisoners' cells, but they are attacked by an unseen wizard, who happens to be one of the criminals leading the other two. The criminals then disappear and Clutch and his friends breaks the person out of the cell, revealing himself to be Watch Commander. Clutch and his team attempt to go after the criminals, though the Watch Commander comforts them by stating that he has pulled off the Sparkplugs of all ships to ensure that the criminals will never escape from the planet. Unfortunately, the criminals has taken the team's ship (due to the team having left it open after squabbling with each other) and destroy the other ships, inciting the Watch Commander to berate the team for their arguing and their lack of cooperation. Feeling guilty, Clutch decides to take action and builts a new ship for the team to move on, declaring that a team arguing with each other while being ordered to do their tasks is the sole reason why he always works alone. During the trip back, the team is informed by Playwell that the symbol refers to Omega, one of the two criminals led by the evil wizard, and that the criminals have gone their separate ways following the escape. Playwell also informs that the evil wizard who planned the escape is none other than Mallock the Malign, infamous for terrorizing a medieval planet named Ashlar. The planet's ruler, who was the late King, was informed to having sacrificed his own life to ensure his kingdom's safety and Mallock's previous imprisonment, and has left his son Prince Varen with his powerful golden sword to rule, despite Prince Varen's incapability of preparing in battle. Playwell then orders Cltuch and the team to head over there to capture Mallock. The team manages to get to Ashlar, but their ship accidentally knocked down Lego-Henge (a spoof of StoneHenge). They get off and take refuge in a Medieval camp with extra parts, but not after witnessing an group of armed skeletons marching down the forests, realizing that Mallock has gain a stranghold of Ashlar around his fortress with a Skeleton Army acting as his own forces. As Peg, Brick, and Bernie create a battle chariot, Clutch leaves to get Prince Varen to convince him to fight against Mallock. Meanwhile in Mallock's fortress, Mallock learns of the team's presence and orders his two skeleton henchmen Skelly and Bones to go after Clutch so they can find the prince and the golden sword to finalize his takeover of Ashlar. Back in the forest, Clutch ends up in a bridge but a troll named Hogar refuses to let him across until Clutch solves 3 riddles. Though Clutch gets them all right, Skelly and Bones catch up with him after a failed attempt to trap him, demanding Hogar to surrender Clutch to them at once. Hogar attempts to ward off the skeletons by hypnotizing them, but they don't fall for it, prompting an annoyed Hogar to eat Clutch and runs away to a secret doorway that is painted like an ending forest to escape the skeletons.

Having escaped Skelly and Bones, Hogar throws Clutch out of his stomach on the other side and shows him the way to the kingdom of Prince Varen, telling him about the history of his father and the golden sword. Hogar also tells Clutch that he was the only troll that was on the kingdom's team and that he was assigned to protect Varen. Back at the Medieval Camp, Bernie develops a crush on Peg, who leaves to look for a relaxing land, but later befriends a dragon. Back in the kingdom, Clutch finds Prince Varen and he helps him wield a sword but he fails and gets angry at Clutch. Clutch protests that he was trying to help him defeat the Wizard team, but Varen rejects him, confessing that he's scared of Mallock. Enraged, Clutch goes back to the camp and sees that a dwarf will help them so they set out to stop Mallock on their own.

Eventually, Prince Varen, Hogar, and their knights find out that Clutch was telling the truth and decide to give a shot in their battle against Mallock. Varen and Clutch stow away in the back of Mallock's castle by making Peg a fake Varen. Unfortunately, Mallock plays wise to their moves and traps them in a bone cage outside a lava river and the growing Skeleton Army drove the knights away to retreat. Back in the castle, Mallock makes a screen in front of the clouds to show them that Clutch and Varen will be killed unless the golden sword is surredered to him immediately. Having no choice, Hogar brings the golden sword's case to Mallock so he can free them, only to find that's it empty at the last minute. Enraged, Mallock traps Hogar in lightning and throws him back to the doorway of Varen's castle, leaving him trapped. Varen and Clutch make a message to the team so they can rely on themselves. Bernie gets fueled up by hope and they rebuild their broken chariot. They reunite with the knights and they attack the Skeleton Army. Back in the castle, Peg finally get the dragon to cut down the cage, freeing Clutch and Varen, who then get to the gates, where they find the golden sword that was left earlier, since Mallock didn't bother to search for it. After very much convincing from Clutch, Varen finally decides to face his fear of Mallock to ensure his kingdom's safety. Around the same time, Mallock attempts to lure Clutch into giving the sword to him by promising to lead him to his father, but Clutch refuses.

As Clutch watches Varen using the golden sword to fight against Mallock, Brick uses a jetpack and lands in the eye of Mallock's fortress and fights with Skelly and Bones. Despite Brick being outnumbered by Skelly and Bones, Bernie helps him by throwing a disc at the skeletons and they get killed. Back inside the fortress, Mallock taunts Varen of retaining his title as Prince of Ashlar as he uses his staff to attack Varen. However, Varen finally engulfs enough power from Mallock's staff into his sword, allowing the sword to unleash its full power, much to Mallock's shock. Taking the opportunity, Varen uses the sword to trap Mallock with a glowing chain, declaring Mallock under arrest and himself the new King of Ashlar. Following Mallock's defeat, Hogar is freed from his restrains and the Skeleton army disappears into puffs of smoke, leaving Clutch's team and the knights to celebrate their victory. With peace declared open in Ashlar, Varen is then officially declared the new King, and when Clutch and his team pack up to transport the chained Mallock back to Lego City, Varen thanks him for being loyal and for being part of the team. The team then return to Lego City, allowing the authorities to send the imprisoned Mallock in a cage back to the prison planet. Congratulating the team for their efforts, Playwell tells them that Omega and the other unnamed criminal are still on the loose, and they have gotten reports of the unnamed criminal's location in another planet. Encouraged with a newfound belief of teamwork, the team head onward to a new adventure to capture the criminal.
