The little yellow fellas are at it again, in a story that tells a bit about Gru’s child years. The movie looks great, the animation is really realistic, Gru’s a pretty decent character and the minions are insanely funny. Plus, there are a ton of 70’s references. A great bonus are the voices, which are not only well done, but the cast is filled with A-listers: Steve Carell, Michelle Yeoh, Pierre Coffin, Alan Arkin, Russell Brand, Jean-Claude Van Damme (as Jean-Clawed), Dolph Lundgren, Danny Trejo, RZA, and many others.
Maybe it’s not a great movie, but definitely a good watch with the kids. Six popcorns.
