Bionicle: The Legend Reborn

Bionicle: The Legend Reborn is a 2009 American direct-to-video science fantasy action film based on the Bionicle toy line by Lego. It is the fourth and final Bionicle film to be released. Distributed by Universal Studios, the film is a stand-alone sequel to Bionicle: Mask of Light. It follows the toy line's 2009 story and features a different set of characters than that of the first three films. The film stars Michael Dorn as the voice of Mata Nui.

Released on September 18, 2009, the film received positive reviews from critics, who praised the animation and voice cast. Despite this, the film was a box office bomb, grossing $52 million against a budget of $35 million and losing over $20 million, effectively cancelling plans for it to be a start of a trilogy of films. The story was concluded through comic books and a web story titled the "Mata Nui Saga".

Box office
In the United States and Canada, the film was released alongside Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Informant, Love Happens, and Jennifer's Body, and was projected to gross $5-10 million in its opening weekend, due to the fact that the last film in the series was released four years ago. The film grossed $4 million on its first day, including $200,000 from Thursday night previews, and debuted with $10.5 million, finishing second behind Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. In its second weekend, the film grossed $5 million, falling to fifth, and in its third weekend, the film grossed $3 million, ranking tenth.
