Fun for the whole family

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2015)

I think this is an excellent movie. It was teased at in the credits of Despicable Me 2. If you liked that movie you will like this one. Also I feel like this is a movie a whole family can watch and enjoy. So I recommend it for family night.
Some people will not like the Minions because they do not speak English. They do speak some English words, as well as words from several other languages including their own made up "Minionese". So some people do not like this.
I do not consider the following as spoilers because it is in some of the trailers, but some people avoid the trailers because they want no spoilers at all. So the following may contain spoilers:
This movie follows the Minions from the beginning of time/life until they meet Gru, the main character from the movie "Dispicable Me". It shows them evolving as single cell organisms and living in Antartica. The three main minions of the movie include the leader of the group named, Kevin; the joker of the group, Stuart; and the cute one, Bob. They represent the Oldest, Middle, and Baby brother. Growing up in a big family, I enjoyed how they interacted in these roles.
This movie is a Prequel for the two Despicable Me movies. While it focuses on the Minions, Gru makes a cameo at the end. This sets up the relationships between Gru and the Minions in the Despicable Me movies.
