Despicable Me Audience Reviews

More Review

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

cricketbat Despicable Me features fun characters, fantastic animation and a lighthearted story. I liked it. That being said, it feels like it is missing something. It was entertaining, but the characters are flat and the plot lacks development. Still, it is a fun movie to watch.

adonis98-743-186503 When a criminal mastermind uses a trio of orphan girls as pawns for a grand scheme, he finds their love is profoundly changing him for the better. Despicable Me mixes laughs, action and lots of Spy stuff in a way where it works perfectly. First of all the whole plot with the Moon sounds ridiculous but on screen it works so freaking well done and packed alongside with the chemistry between Gru and this 3 little girls it makes for a real heartwarming animated flick. It's not a movie that was meant to win Oscars or last a life time but it has some great messages for kids and terrific humor plus lots of minions doing their minions stuff that seem to work. (A+)

swilliky Introducing a likable cartoon villain and his iconic, adorable sidekick, Despicable Me birthed a new franchise for Illumination. Gru (Steve Carell) is a villainous character who pops balloons in front of kids and uses his freeze ray to cut in line at the coffee shop. His ultimate plan is to steal the moon using a rocket ship and a shrink ray. With the help of his little yellow minions and the inventor Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand), he can manage most of the work but would still need a loan from the Bank of Evil. Gru has a hard time living up to the villain standard and disappoints his mother (Julie Andrews). When a new villain Vector (Jason Segel) and steals a pyramid, Gru finds it harder to impress the banker Mr. Perkins (Will Arnett) and receive a loan for his rocket.A group of orphan girl Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Edith (Dana Gaier), and Agnes (Elsie Fisher) try to sell Gru cookies but he pretends to be a recording. Gru must first steal a shrink ray but when he does, he finds that Vector is one step ahead of him. The only way for Gru to get inside Vector's lair and past all of the booby traps is to adopt the orphans and send them in with robotic cookies. He finds that having three girls in his house turns out to be more difficult than he thought as they terrify his dog-like creature, goof around with the minions, and touch all of his villainous equipment. He does manage to steal the shrink ray from Vector but has to take the girls to their dance class first.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com

jerry Despicable Me was Illumination's first film and they proved that Dreamworks was not Pixar and Disney's big competitor now. In the 1st quarter I was confused and kind of turned off by the film. In the second quarter I was starting to feel the appeal, the minions were hilarious. Vector really did break the movie for sure, he was so unlikable. In the 3rd quarter things started to pick up and I was liking it even more. By the 4th quarter I knew that it was good. Despicable Me was the cozy not over the top animated movies that we've been waiting for years to see 1st quarter 6.5/10 2nd quarter 7/10 3rd quarter 8/10 4th quarter 8.5/10
