The new norm of recent years has been to create children's animation that works on two levels: fun for kids, messages for adults. The successful Lego Movie adhered to the same formula, so they thought to apply it to a Lego Batman movie, but the other way around: a complicated adult message ... addressed to kids. As a result, kids got confused figuring out existential concepts such as 'appreciating your enemy's presence by hating them a lot'; because believe it or not, that's what this movie was about. At the end, my 5-year-old said: "I like Robin more than Batman."
