Good fun

Rating: 6/10 (16 June 2014)

Sweet, feel-good movie. Quite predicable and not laugh-a-minute funny, and mostly quite empty for the middle section of the movie, it has a good heart and finished strongly. Probably more a kids movie than an adults movie though.
Thus, very similar to the first Despicable Me: good start, drifts a lot in the middle, finishes strongly with some nice emotional touches.
Animation is great, as expected. The choices of the voice stars is spot- on. Steve Carell steals the show, of course, but the remainder are good too.
Not a classic, but good fun nevertheless.
