Cute, but I could have waited till it came to TV

Rating: 7/10 (12 July 2015)

I was really looking forward to the minion movie. I fell in love with the characters in Despicable Me. The characters remain cute, and the movie has some very fun moments. As a prequel, the film held my interest. In hind site and given the high price of theater tickets, I could have waited to see this one on broadcast or cable.
If you do choose to go, DO NOT leave before the credits have finished playing! The animators went to town during the credits. These short bits include in-jokes that fans of the Despicable Me franchise will appreciate. One of my favorite segments is right at the very end of the credits. In that "grand finale", the animators and writers did what I consider one of the best an most creative segments of the film.
