Summary
In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Gru, a nasty super-villain, lives in this dreadful house, however within his house is a secret hideout filled with a mini army of minions! However, Gru has his pride hurt when an unknown super-villain steals the Great Pyramid of Giza, so Gru decides to out-do the super-villain, with the assistance of Dr. Nefario, by shrinking and stealing the Moon, an idea based on his childhood dream of being an astronaut. Armed with freeze rays, shrink rays, dart guns, and super evil vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way! Until he encounters three young orphaned girls that will change his life forever. Does Gru really have a "soft spot" for these girls? Find out just how despicable Gru really is in the film Despicable Me!
Thoughts
Despicable Me was an absolutely hilarious yet heart warming film! At the beginning of the film, Gru was portrayed as a "despicable" super-villain, however throughout the film Gru truly became a father to Agnes, Margo and Edith. Who could've thought that a super-villain, as heartless as Gru, could have a 'heart'? The character development in this film was wonderful to watch and I enjoyed the cute little minions as well. The minions, in my opinion, completely steal the show! You may not care much for the story but it's really all about the characters. I Hope you check out this Canadian-made animation.
Extras
Most of you have already heard that there's a "Minion Movie" coming out this Summer, but if you haven't heard, I'm proud to announce that the minions are back and better than ever! Minions are basically a rambunctious bunch of simple minded homunculi that live in Gru’s secret hideout and assist Gru with his evil plans. However, that’s not all! Minions are of similar size and shape, but have unique features to tell them apart, such as height, number of eyes, roundness or secondary features such as hair, eyep size or clothing. Minions wear metal goggles accommodating their number of eyes, blue overalls with Gru's emblem on the front, and small black gloves. These colourful characters don’t just work in the lab, but instead they often play with Agnes, Margo and Edith and goof off from their daily duties. I personally can’t wait to see the minions in this upcoming film! Can you?
