A few nights ago the kids and I went to the theater to see the movie Despicable Me 2. I was a little concerned because we haven’t seen Despicable Me before, but guess what, it’s ok. We didn’t need to see it, the previews told us all we needed to know to see it. We watched it in 3D and I loved it. The whole family loved it. We left the theater with everyone talking about the movie and how they can’t wait for me to get it for the house. Meaning, they expect us to get it on Blu-ray when it’s released. They would probably be happy just going back to the theater too. LOL…
The effects were amazing. There is a scene in the movie where they were blowing bubbles and they looked so real like you could pop them. I was really impressed with the 3D effects.
In Despicable Me 2 Gru is recruited by the AVL (the Anti-villain League). They need someone that thinks like a villain to help them catch a villain. He tries to tell them no, but I think it’s his children that convince him that he needs to do it. And he was excited to tell them about it. His girls are really excited for him and the movie that they made was so good. It has rockets, cool cars and a lipstick Taser.
Oh and of course minions, lots and lots of minions. Minions that clean, Minions that care for the kids, minions that cook and minions that just do everything. I love those minions just like I love my minions. And my minions loved Despicable me.
I’m really not a huge fan of rehashing the story for you, but what you need to know is that it’s a great family movie and appropriate. No language, the humor is clean, I mean there are bottom jokes. If you have kids you know that but humor is already coming out of their mouths so this movie is so appropriate. I can’t think of anything negative to say about it. What I can say is YOU HAVE TO GO SEE IT!

I wasn’t really a big fan of the first one so I think we’re gonna pass on this!
me and my kids loved it! We were big fans of the first one but hands down this one was better!
I am so excited to see this movie, I was a huge fan of the first!
The first one was extremely funny. You are really missing out by not having seen it. There is a big chunk of the store line you missed on how he met the girls or “gorls” he would say. haha. My kids actually enjoyed the first one more but still got laughs out of the 2nd one. Thanks for the recommendation. 🙂
