very enjoyable animated movie

Rating: 7/10 (3 July 2011)

This is one of those animated movies that adults along with kids will enjoy. It is cute and funny and has a decent plot. The opening is great with how we learn the pyramid had been stolen: a brilliant idea. Then we meet super villain, Gru, whom needs to come up with an idea to top the pyramid napping. He is planning to steal the moon and hold it for ransom. To do this, he needs a shrink ray, which nerdy villain, Vector, has stolen from him. Gru adopts 3 cute girls in order to use them as a distraction to get the shrink ray back. But of course, being around the girls begins to change Gru and he begins to enjoy their company and being a dad. So, there are many cute scenes with the girls, like the fun park, the bedtime story, playing with the minions. Eventually, Gru must choose the girls or the moon and have a final battle with Vector, before realizing what's most important in the end.
FINAL VERDICT: Very funny, and entertaining. Worth a movie rental.
