Despicable were the ones who didn't find this movie hilarious!!!

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2010)

I went to see this movie just yesterday with one of my best friends. I was actually surprised at how empty the theater was (we got great seats, to say the least), especially since it only came out the other day. I guess people were just out seeing that God forsaken teen flick "Eclipse". Well boy were they missing out! My friend and I sat through an hour and a half (I think) of funny comments, changing hearts, and confusing (but impressive) accents. When I say the accents were confusing, I simply meant GRU'S accent. Was it French, Russian, or German? I couldn't tell, but I have to say that it annoys me more now than it did while I was watching the movie. I would suspect this is because...well, because it was a great movie! I found myself thinking time and time again that Gru was not meant to be an evil genius! No, he was destined for something else, something fatherly. And this is exactly what happens. Without those three little orphan girls (Margo, Edith, and Agnes), there would have been no (interesting) storyline. Gru would never have gotten the shrink ray, he never would have had his heart stolen by those adorable little girls, he never would have developed as a character. That being said, I find it suffice to say that the despicable people were the ones whose hearts didn't warm at the sight of the little girls, were the ones who found this movie a waste of time and money, and were the ones who didn't find this movie hilarious!
