Franchise officially ruined.

Rating: 1/10 (29 August 2016)

Despicable Me was a pretty good film. It was funny, kids-friendly and had a very talented voice cast. It's sequel was pretty bad. This? This officially ruined the franchise. There was a little bit of hope after Despicable Me 2, but we all know the next one is going to be terrible. The first few scenes were pretty funny, and featured great narration by Jeffrey Rush (Captain Barbossa). But it all goes downhill after that. The villain, Scarlett Overkill, is flat, clichéd and her one-liners are terrible. You just start missing Gru. I mean, the minions are funny, but the franchise needs Steve Carell. It needs all the human characters from the first one. And most of the humour just isn't funny. Some of it's good, but the rest is just bad humour. This might entertain small kids, but it won't entertain the rest of us. Guaranteed.
