No no no. You can do better...

Rating: 6/10 (29 September 2015)

Well, needless to say, I love minions! From the first time they appeared on screen, I got really really obsessed with them. I think that along with the Penguins from Madagascar and Scrat from the Ice Age they are the best "supporting" figures in such movies.
When the movie was out, I rushed to the cinemas to watch it, along with some other 30 something geeks and of course lots of parents with their children, with the same immaturity I guess but with an excuse at least...
The movie was disappointing. Apart from a few laughs at the beginning, at some point all this made-up language of the minions was too much and it began to tire me. The story was nothing too elaborate or crafted. It seemed like the simplest scenario they could get to get the movie out. I cannot pin point exactly what it was that did not cut it for me, but I think that the language part was quite significant.
I would expect something more adult-appropriate, as let's face it, these movies are not just for kids anymore. It's a really really generous 6/10 from me for this one.
