Lego's Bionicle line has sprouted this complicated but impressive family movie, Bionicle: Mask of Light, to bolster the toys' mythic appeal. The story focuses on the robotic Matoran tribe from the island of Mata Nui, which is protected by six powerful guardians known as the Toa. Two small Matorans--one a potentially heroic "herald" and the other a historian-witness called "chronicler"--find a sacred mask of light, suggesting the imminent of arrival of a seventh Toa. Identifying that mystery figure proves difficult, however, especially with the evil spirit of shadows, Makuta, attacking Matorans with mechanized-crayfish warriors in a bid to possess the precious mask. This is the kind of out-of-nowhere, dense fantasy that requires one to get up to speed quickly on a lot of exotic detail, terms, history, etc. But Mask of Light is also enjoyable as expressive, CGI animation with thoughtful art design, striking color, and excellent vocal performances. --Tom Keogh

- A fun movie
I'm 31. I have no kids.
I'm an animation student- that was my excuse for buying this.
I liked it. It's fun. OK, I am a big Lego and Bionicle nerd, but still. My wife likes it, so it's not just my excentricities.
Your kids will definately like it. If Lord of the Rings is a little too violent and scary for your little ones, get them this. The storyline is almost- sorta- kinda- Lord of the Ringsish.
Good adventure movie with exciting scenes that aren't too violent for the ... Read More

- Bionicle - Mask of Light
This film, is definitely for Bionicle fans only, and I, being one enjoyed it.
If you are not a Bionicle fan, be warned, it will be nearly unwatchable, the scrpit was not all too great, the visuals were a bit choppy. The story of the film itself is decent, but it will not be understood if you are not a Bionicle fan.
Bionicle fans will be pleased, as long as they aren't expecting theatrical quality. The story keeps true to the storylines previous, and you may find it above ... Read More

- This is awesome!
Out of all 3 movies, I think this one is the best. It is about this Matoran named Takua who finds a mask embedded in stone and he and his friend, Jaller, have been told by the Turaga that they must find the seventh toa. When Takua realizes he is the herald, he refuses the responsibility and tells the Turaga that Jaller is the herald. When Jaller persuades Takua to join him, the Turaga assume that Jaller wants Takua to put the story on the Wall of History. They were wrong. When Makuta tells Takua that ... Read More
