The Bricksburg squad is back in the direct sequel to the first LEGO Movie, and they come in pieces.

It’s been five years since everything was awesome, and now the city is bleak. What was once the beautiful, fantastic Legoland is now an ugly post-apocalyptic wasteland. The citizens have toughened up during this time, but only one remains unchanged, Emmet (Chris Pratt).

That is until an attack on Bricksburg commences. Lego Duplo invaders from outer space have come to wreak havoc on the city, demolishing everything in their path faster than they can rebuild. The heroes try to close the doors to the city, but to no avail. The General Mayhem sneaks in and abducts their fiercest leader, Lucy (Elizabeth Banks).

Taking responsibility for his actions, upbeat and determined Emmett sets out on a quest to get Lucy back. He joins forces with Rex Danger Vest, and the team heads out to the Sister System in outer space ruled by an evil alien queen. Does Emmett still have what it takes to save Lucy and the rest of Bricksburg from total domination?
