BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
swilliky Introducing a likable cartoon villain and his iconic, adorable sidekick, Despicable Me birthed a new franchise for Illumination. Gru (Steve Carell) is a villainous character who pops balloons in front of kids and uses his freeze ray to cut in line at the coffee shop. His ultimate plan is to steal the moon using a rocket ship and a shrink ray. With the help of his little yellow minions and the inventor Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand), he can manage most of the work but would still need a loan from the Bank of Evil. Gru has a hard time living up to the villain standard and disappoints his mother (Julie Andrews). When a new villain Vector (Jason Segel) and steals a pyramid, Gru finds it harder to impress the banker Mr. Perkins (Will Arnett) and receive a loan for his rocket.A group of orphan girl Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Edith (Dana Gaier), and Agnes (Elsie Fisher) try to sell Gru cookies but he pretends to be a recording. Gru must first steal a shrink ray but when he does, he finds that Vector is one step ahead of him. The only way for Gru to get inside Vector's lair and past all of the booby traps is to adopt the orphans and send them in with robotic cookies. He finds that having three girls in his house turns out to be more difficult than he thought as they terrify his dog-like creature, goof around with the minions, and touch all of his villainous equipment. He does manage to steal the shrink ray from Vector but has to take the girls to their dance class first.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com
Miguel Neto Despicable It was a surprise to me in the year it was released, it looked like it would be a regular animation, but in the end it proved to be very good, and one of the best films of 2010, with a great voice cast, Steve Carell, Jason Segel, Russel Brand, Julie Andrews, Will Arnet and etc, and a good direction by duo Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin, the animation is very well done, the soundtrack is cool, and the characters are very charismatic, Gru and the kids are my movie favorites, Minions have people who like them, but I particularly can not stand them, the script has some glide, not all the jokes works, I could not like the Minions, even though they have some cool moments, and the animation loses a little strength in the 3 act, Despicable Me has 1 and 2 very good act, and a 3 of ups and downs, is a very good animation, I recommend. Note 8.0
zkonedog After pretty much working my way through all the Disney/Pixar animated films, "Despicable Me" was my first venture into Universal territory. The filmmaking styles are most definitely different, although I would argue that Pixar still holds a big edge.For a basic plot summary, "Despicable Me" tells the story of Dr. Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), a supervillian trying to stay on top of the supervillian world. While dueling with the young, up-and- coming supervillians, Dr. Gru gets involved with a trio of orphan girls who eventually lend him some basic humanity.Clearly, Universal utilizes a completely different formula than Pixar. Here, the animation is a little goofier and the action almost never ceases. A bit of emotion is still injected into the film, but nowhere near Pixar levels. In this case, the never-ending action gets a bit tiresome and the emotion is actually a bit too little, too late.Overall, however, "Despicable Me" will entertain all children with its fast pace, quirky humor, and abundance of sight gags. For folks any older, though, it just doesn't measure up to the Pixar stable of emotional depth and all-ages humor.
