Good exists even in the most evil of hearts.

It's funny how you avoid certain movies for while simply because you get a somewhat bad vibe from the previews that tells you that you probably wouldn't enjoy it.It happens to me a lot.Very often,I come around to finally giving it a chance.Sometimes my initial premonition turns out to be correct,and then there are a few films,such as in the case of Despicable Me,where I end up being pleasantly surprised.In the character of Gru,we see a "villain" seemingly bent on world domination.We get some insight on why he became evil in the first place,then we see him get sidetracked by three adorable little girls.Then,slowly but surely,some goodness bubbles to the surface as he realizes that he has a chance to give to these three children what he never received as a child.Love.A very sweet,evil story.
