L.O.L. Surprise: The Movie

An incredibly creative spectacle. All these movies and TV shows that have been produced over the last 20 years for various toys are often of questionable quality, and sometimes they are simply a non-conflicting addition to toy lines and offer stories and environments that kids can emulate in their own playing. But this mix of L.O.L. Surprise and the storyline of Movie Magic is quite something. As always, it sensitively builds on the basic concept of The Revolt of Toys and develops it with today's technology, where even young children can act as filmmakers during their games. It does so literally, because it deals with entering a movie studio/game world with the help of 3D glasses and taking part in the making of a great movie, for which you have to choose a suitable ending from four options. Of course, all variants are available as separate play sets. A brilliant combination of not only genres, but overall cinematic magic that still works in the world of linear broadcasting and VOD. Everything here gets a tribute, including the drive-in theater. Personally, I liked the great villain/hero combination of Ms. Direct and a black and white scene from a haunted castle, lit by Technicolor in the finale. (31/05/2022)
