Who wrote the terrible script?

Rating: 4/10 (12 July 2015)

So, what happened in the past? "Despicable Me" and "Despicable Me 2" was some of the most successful animated movies of all time. Their featured creatures "minions" became very popular and also gained a lot of cash. So, what to do? Of course they did a spin-off movie called "Minions".
They had the mean but kind minions (slapping each other and so on) and they had the millions of people just waiting to see a funny movie. What they did? They flushed every opportunity of a good movie down the drain.
Who wrote this script? The funny thing about the minions in the first two movies was that they were mean to each other in loving, small ways - slapping each other, tripping each other, sticking out their tongue... In this movie? They failed to show this. In the first two movies they were funny stupid. In this movie they were just stupid. Only twice did I smile at the minions behaviour. The rest of it was actually pure garbage.
The silly plot MIGHT have worked if they would have based the story on what made minions funny in the first place - slapstick humor. Now it just falls flat. Story and jokes are not that funny. I was looking forward to watch this but it really turns out to be a huge disappointment. It was a good foundation to stand on and once again greedy people fails to deliver.
This is truly a bad movie. The script fails the funny minions.
