![]() The reason I bring him up is because he has been instrumental in the movies and to not even give him a shout out I think is a missed opportunity. He could have been younger and awesome to see what he was doing in the 60’s. If they weren’t planning on making another Minions movie then why didn’t they throw in Dr. I want to tell the directors that they forgot something. What did she do to earn the spot of top villain? Nobody knows, its just a title as easily won as grabbing them red gem out of my hand… I did like Herb. She was nice then she was bad, then nice then crazy. Scarlett Overkill was a little bit over kill. Nothing new here, same old antics, same old banana. The minion characters were written pretty plain even though each one of the 3 stood out on purpose. Don’t introduce a young Gru until the final 3rd movie! Winner! No, it’s like they felt this movie had no legs. Take them way back and track their adventures. If it were me, I would be looking at this as a series of movies. We basically jumped right into 1968 and they just so happen to meet the Villain just before they meet Gru. I thought the evolution of the Minions was super interesting but it went by way too fast. I wished they would have spent more time on the days before Villain-Con. How was that plot? It was interesting to see what the Minions did pre-Gru. Michael Keaton was in this movie!? He played Walter somebody? I didn’t even know that! The only casting I was happy with was Steve Carrell as young Gru. ![]() So, in this case why not pay some cheaper actors for the job that they did anyway? Why? because Sandra and Jon put little denim butts in the seats that’s why. ![]() I don’t really find Sandra Bullock to be a great villain-ess, but she hardly sounded like Sandra and I knew Jon Hamm was in this movie but couldn’t peg him until I IMDB’d it. I have no problems with the acting but I do have to say why use these actors/actress if you’re going to make them so different than what we can expect. With Sandra Bullock and Jon Hamm leading the charge you would figure that the acting is top notch. For example, Bob’s eyes & hair, & Kevin is a different Kevin from the first film. Ok, they aren’t singled out as much but there are some changes made to them to make them more unique. It doesn’t help me feel like there are hundreds of minions that could do the same job. Can we go back now? Even though you singled out 3 Minions and made them stand out as individuals. I’m glad we get a taste of what that would be like. Like everyone else it made you wonder why they just don’t have their own movie. I’ve always thought the Minions were the highlights to the Despicable Me movies. Spoiler Filled Review: (read only if you HAVE seen it and don’t care about spoilers) Although it made a TON of money in the box office so, millions of people can’t be all wrong… right? Unfortunately, the Minions cannot carry an entire movie by themselves. Lacking that specific touch that Gru has. How does this movie rank against the Despicable Me movies? It comes in 3rd. The kids will love it and you will like it. Seriously, there is one goal here and it is to find out that one thing that happened to the minions to bring them to where we know them today. You’ve seen the Despicable Me movies right? Well, have you ever wondered where the Minions come from and how they long to serve the most evil of villains? This movie points you in the right direction. Spoiler Free Review: (read if you have NOT seen this movie) Starring: Sandra Bullock, Jon Hamm, Michael Keaton
