Review: despicable me


Director: Pierre Coffin, Chris Renaud

Release date: 5 August 2010

Genre: Animation , comedy

Casting: (voices) Steve Carell, Jason Segel and Russell Brand

Memorable quote:
Gru: We are going to pull of the TRUE crime of the century... we are going to steal the MOON!
and
Edith: Are these beds made from bombs?
Gru: Yes, but they are very old and are not likely to explode. But don't toss and turn.

Yes?
Usually I’m not a big fan of animation movies, but once in a while you have one thats just better than the others, original, fresh, funny and in our case beautifully weird. The idea and the script were great. The super evil bad guy, who becomes kind of a loving father figure, is great. But the best thing of all this were the characters, Gru, the kids and the yellow minions. Gru reminded me of an eviler version of Dr evil, but in a funny way. Steven carrel who gave his voice for this was just amazing; he gave Gru this evil and scary but still adorable character. The orphans where evil but in a childish way, not on purpose and oops! Loved it. Now the best were the minions, you can’t understand them, but every time you see them they just make you laugh.

No?
I didn't like the character of Victor, the real evil guy; he wasn’t really evil he just tried to be. He was just a kid in a yellow jumpsuit, not to convincing. But I loved his guns and weapons they had a lot of cool imagination.

Well
The movie made me laugh and that’s the most important thing here. The beautiful thing in such an animation is that’s it’s suitable for kids and for adults, everyone gets something to do. Definitely watch this at home when it comes on DVD or something else, just relax and enjoy. Because of all the above I grade this one…


Grade: 7,5

  1. Just watched it yesterday. Very cute movie, but some scenes reminded me too much of "Meet the Robinsons". Keep up the good work, Mammoth!
