The shot type is an eye level medium long shot. The star vehicles are Emmet, Batman, Wildstyle, Vitruvius, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Unikitty, Green Ninja, Superman, a 90's Lego Spaceman, President Business and MetalBeard. Emmet is an average looking Lego construction worker from the Lego City franchise, he looks so average and normal because of the choices of the producers.

Shows that Jake is unexperienced connoting something could go wrong in the car chase. Diegetic Ambiant noise when the robbers smash the front of the shop thats Diegetic Ambiants  Q2. Editing: More of its from the police POV view so you have a better bond with them. Camera showed in close up shots because you know them better Criminals are showed in long shots and CCTV footage so it makes you not trust them Sounds: Criminals speak agressive lines of dialogue.
