Despicable Me is Super Funny and it will make the whole family laugh.If you have watched Despicable Me, You saw that Gru was evil, Gru (Steve Carrell) is the greatest villain in the world. Or at least he was until someone managed to steal the Great Pyramid of Giza and replace it with an inflatable substitute under the nose of the entire world. There's also a lot of sweetness to Despicable Me. The girls are cute, especially Agnes, the little unicorn-obsessed girl who bears some resemblance to Boo from Monsters Inc.she's got one of the best lines "It's so fluffy!!!" Despite all the film's weirdness, the relationship between Gru and the girl feels tender and real as it develops.Despicable Me scores extra points for quality animation. I really enjoyed this movie and I honestly think labeling it "average" or "played it safe" is quite unfair. Furthermore, the amount of screen time given to the minions gives the movie it's comedic charm. Without them, the movie would fall short of comedy, and be considered an emotional drag. i can relate tho this movie particularly because i can connect with girls. i grew up with a single parent so i know how it feels to want and search for that love and affection from your guardian.Overall it is a great flick for a family movie night that both parents and kids can enjoy without getting bored. i always say no work is perfect of course this movie could use some critiquing and could have been better, but i have to commend Pierre Coffin for his creativity and diversity displayed in this film.
