Despicable Me 2

I love the first Despicable Me. It was clever and funny. The sequel wasn't nearly as good as the original, but still one of my favorite movies this year. 

The movie focused a lot on its prime marketing creations: the Minions. Those scenes were hilarious even if not always needed. But, the kids stay interested that way. There are plenty of laughs to be had  by the adult audience as well. There are things that that kids won't even understand that we (adults) will think are hilarious. All-4-One, YMCA, and more...

There is plenty of good stuff during the credits and it's actually one of the only reasons to see the 3-D version. 

+ Funny movie for kids and adults

- Not as good of wit and story as the first movie

+ Minions

+ Minions

Overall score: 83 (setting the curve)
