The origin story everyone wants to see!!

Rating: 6/10 (15 December 2015)

Oh look, a movie based on my least characters from the Despicable Me series.
What joy.
Still, it isn't QUITE as bad as you'd expect. Especially if you're a fan of small yellow creatures being subjected to lots of knockabout humour, and references to 60's British culture.
Oh, did I mention the movie mostly takes place in England during that whole 'hippie' period? I didn't? Well, now I am. HURRAY!
Funny, I didn't spot my mother, anywhere...
We get THE FIRST FEMALE SUPERVILLAIN voiced by Sandra Bullock, a queen FAR more fun than the real thing with the jolly tones of Jennifer Saunders, and a whole load of gibberish spoken by our jaundiced protagonists.
It's predictable humour, but it goes down easily enough, won't give you a headache and the kids seem to like it.
Not that you'd have guessed by the complete lack of merchandising for it at every single store you go in, though... 6/10
