This is the second movie and series of all time, only the MCU (Morbius Cinematic Universe) is better.

There are very few criticisms i have of this movie and would probably have to watch it again in cinema in order to find the smallest misconceptions in the movie, which is probably gru's weapon not malfuncioning which is incredibly minor. I must say this move is a must watch, I'm not even saying this as a joke or a meme you must watch this its a breathtaking experience. Easily a 10/10 Expand

This is the movie of all time. This movie is greater than Morbius. Make sure to watch this in your business suit drip. Minions and gru acted so well in their poignant performances, and it is evident that this live action film used no VFX. 10/1

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. E-Value: 8
Acting: 8
Plot: 7

The story of the Minions’ past continue in this instalment where they are join by their current boss which they later continue serving him in the future Despicable Me instalments, Felonius Gru (Carell).

Seven years after the events of the first movie, the Minions (Coffin) have been serving Gru as their loyal minions to help him achieve his dream of becoming a supervillain. One day, Gru receives an audition invitation to join a supervillain team called Vicious 6 which is now lead by Bella Bottom (P. Henson), after the death of the team’s founder, Wild Knuckles.

Gru attends the audition but the outcome is very poor because the Vicious 6 look down on him for being a child. Eager to prove himself and them wrong, Gru steals the Zodiac Stone which the Vicious 6 stole it years ago during a heist. As he is being chased by the Vicious 6, Gru gives the stone to Otto, one of the Minions, and they will meet back at his hideout while he along with the other Minions: Kevin, Stuart and Bob distract them.

Back in the hideout, Gru and the other Minions are furious to find out that Otto has trade away the Zodiac Stone for a pet rock with some random kid at a birthday party. To make matter worse, the stone is now under the hands of kid’s uncle, who is now on route to San Francisco. Gru goes after the stone while elsewhere, there is another person who wants the Zodiac Stone as well besides the Vicious 6.

Compare to the first Minions movie, this movie improved in many ways. For one, the movie not only focus on the Minions as the main protagonist but also include Gru in the role as well. In addition, this movie feels much closer to a Despicable Me movie. Neither the Minions nor Gru steals the spotlight each other throughout the movie. Gru has a great character developments in this movie and his interactions with the Minions is still heartwarming to watch on big screen. The humours in this movie is much better and improved than the previous movie.

In terms of animation, Illumination still have done great job in that department and suffer no downfall. The casts have done a great in the voice acting as well especially Steve Carell, who still retains the charm of voicing Gru. Let’s not forget about Pierre Coffin, who once again did a great job in voicing all the Minions. The plot of the movie is fine and easy enough to follow without any complications.

Despite the improvement from the first movie, this movie have major mistakes. First, there is a continuity error in this movie. Gru is said to be an eleven years old boy in this movie but he still looks the same like he was at the end of the first movie with no sign of aging at all. Next, the other members of Vicious 6 are generally flat characters and generic henchmen. Not only they do not have many lines but they are all voiced by well-known celebrity actors. This is really a waste of their talents in such a small role. The studios should have gone with lesser known actors instead of hiring celebrity actors.

Nevertheless, the movie is still fun to watch. Kids will definitely enjoy this movie. You can bring you kids to watch this movie on the weekends. Even if you are not a kid but have watch all Despicable Me movies, you should definitely catch this one.

I wasn't a fan of the firstWhile I'm not a fan of Illumination and their many bad movies, The Minions franchise is always an exception from me. Something about the movies feels nostalgic and funny, and not a waste of two hours of my life. I wasn't a fan of the first Minions movie, so I wasn't interested in this one at all. The Rise of Gru is much better though, as it features more Gru and it's not just all Minions. The story is pretty good, but it has some plotholes. Then again it's an Illumination movie, plotholes are bound. There's a lot of fun parts in the story that are just super weird, but really good. The animation is a massive highlight in my opinion, it looks SO fresh and clean. The characters look creative and different, and it plays the idea of the mid 70s very well with costumes and songs. The soundtrack is good, but it's nothing to write home about other then some pop culture references in songs and the medley playing every now and then. Honestly the action is a pretty good highlight of this movie, the fight scenes for some reason are pretty entertaining. My only flaws are the pretty solid-sized plotholes, the McGuffin not being used much, and the comedy isn't too good at times. But this is enjoyable for people who like the Minions franchise and for kids. Highlight is definitely the animation and the callbacks and references to previous films. I'd go see this movie, the hype for it and memes from it are golden. Expand

Surprisingly Strong

After being delayed a WHOLE TWO YEARS, Minions: The Rise Of Gru is finally here and I am very happy to report that this film exceeded my expectations as this entry in the franchise still has Beautiful animation, Fantastic voice performances, Fun action, A nice balance between the Gru and Minion plots (50% a Despicable Me prequel and 50% a Minions sequel), Genuine heartfelt moments, The 70s look and feel is gru-vy (No pun intended), and of course the Minions are absolutely hilarious and are definitely at their funniest since at least the second Despicable Me. Overall, Minions: The Rise Of Gru is a massive improvement over it’s 2015 predecessor and the best film in the franchise since Despicable Me 2 and If you want to simply have fun if you’re feeling down, I think this film will help cheer you up.

Because, as it stands now, this was just not my thing. From the inconsequential and disjointed storytelling, to the elementary jokes, I honestly found myself treasuring the fact that this thing was under 90 minutes. That isn't to say you're less of a person or filmgoer for enjoying this. If anything, the fact that movies like this are enjoyed by so many and disliked by far less is a testament to the prevailing element of subjectivity in this art form. I look at a scene involving the titular characters absolutely butchering the Rolling Stones's "You Can't Always Get What You Want" as an affront to the ears, while others regard it with jollity. That's life. Either way, there's no end in sight for these films. The powers-that-be will keep making them and I suppose I'll keep giving them a shot. Didn't work out for me this time, however.

The Minions have the problem that their fame after their appearance in Despicable Me forced them to be over-exploited.
They were precisely what their name meant. They were funny, colourful, flashy characters and became one of the standout elements of the film, while it was understood that they were just comic relief.

2015's Minions proved they couldn't sustain a whole film and now with The Rise of Gru, which could basically be called Despicable Me 0.5, they fix that issue with Gru's addition because he represents someone at the centre of the narrative taking the lead.

What follows is more of the same. A formula that doesn't dare to change anything and not that it needs to because, despite its flaws, Illumination Entertainment seems to know who they are making this film for.
The animation is impeccable and the humor will work more than well for its target audience.

Because that needs to be emphasised to the professional critics who think the characters should have given more for the older audience.
And it's not about treating kids like idiots with silly jokes, but this is still a kids' film, and they just want to have a good time with characters they have fun with, and Minions: The Rise of Gru delivers in that regard.
My 4-year-old niece was the best proof of that.

If you're over the age of 10 and you were expecting something more transcendental from characters who just talk gibberish and have a childlike behavior, that's a problem of your own expectations.

There isn’t a ton to say about this movie as it’s a stereotypical Illumination movie. Animation is weird, voice acting is fine, humor isn’t that funny, and feels like like a cash grab which a decent majority of this film feels like. This is one of the “better” movies that Illumination has put out though. There are some moments here where the film is actually kind of funny. The airplane stuff would work as a fun short film if they released that on its own. The film got a ton more unintentional laughs out of me though. I was laughing at how stupid the film was which definitely wasn’t the intention of the studio but it definitely did make the film much more enjoyable that way. Its got some fun moments sprinkled ever so sparingly thrown out but it’s not worth watching the whole thing for it as when the film isn’t on the minions then it’s dreadful. I don’t care about Gru or the villains at all and their dynamic is incredibly weak and Alan Arkin’s voice acting for Wild Knuckles is dreadful. The story itself is incredibly boring as well but thankfully the somewhat funny moments here and there don’t make it a chore to sit through. Plus the film is short anyway so it won’t feel too long. If you really want to watch this film then definitely watch it with friends as it will be 100 times more fun watching it that way than watching it by yourself. Expand

Very cute, but another instance of a movie studio taking a successful franchise and stuffing politics into a sequel hoping people will tolerate it.
The first Minions move seems like that it is going that direction, only to have the most awesome supervillain in the world, who is a woman, get her butt kicked by a tiny male child at the end.
Pretty much the same punchline is at the end of this movie, but apparently they had to stuff wokeness into the rest of the film to compensate. So both the end AND the beginning of the last sentence are reasons why this movie is 'no good' on the whole.

I used to hate minions but I Gru up. Truly the filmest movie ever 100/10. The moment when Gru said "Minions, it is time for me to rise" gave me goosebumps. It was undeniably marvelous.

Minions: The Rise Of Gru

This new minions movie can best be described as pure ridiculous fun. The movie is fast paced, and doesn't give room for dull moments.
The story is very smooth and unpredictable, and fun as hell.

The minions are at their peak, dishing out beautiful and memorable moments from start to finish. The chemistry between the minions is also noteworthy. The fight and action scenes are well done, and also enlivened by the brilliant visuals. The comedy is well-timed.

It also delivers a splendid backstory as to how Gru became the villain he is. It's also fun to see the little Easter eggs scattered throughout the movie that help allude to former movies in this franchise.

In all, Minions: The Rise Of Gru is a very fun and entertaining animation for kids, and also for adults.

8.5/10

I hated the first Minions movie for being so boring and unfunny, I expected this second part to be another forgettable crap but in the end it turned out to be quite acceptable.

Typical minions story, but from a different perspective. The ending wasn't who knows what, but the story was interesting with all the turntables. There could've been more added to the story

The movie can stand on its own two feet, it's dumb fun for kids that will kill a few hours, Illumination has mastered the art of making movies I wish to describe as "pretty corpses" in that while the animation, sound design and everything regarding the film's production is of an admirable quality, it still seems plastic and lifeless. This is a corporate movie that got pushed to success by a TikTok trend. Expand

This is the (2nd) greatest movie ever made.

Unironically though, it was a waste of a tuxedo. I laughed 3 times, which was 3 more times than I was expecting to. The comedy was mainly dry, full of screaming, toilet humour and kid-friendly violence, all of which I love if it's done right, but I'm sorry, this was executed awfully.

For a modern kids movie, however, the few jokes that land and the classic characters do make this better than average. I'm just sad that in a world where people exploit kids' short attention span and low bar for comedy, children's movies are getting less and less effort put into them. I'm dissapointed that this movie can be considered better than average; take your kids to see a Disney movie instead.

TL;DR- this movie is better than the average kids movie, which isn't saying much. Only go for the meme, or if your child won't stop kicking you in the shins until you go see it.

The good parts are the animation, so fresh and clean, the humor, as always funny, and the characters. Unlike the first Minions movie, however, is not that all about those lovable little yellow freaks, it's also about Gru, and the film balances both of their subplots. Talking about subplots, there are 3 on this movie (SPOILERS AHEAD): - The Minions try to learn kung-fu to save Gru
- Gru bonds with his idol Wild Knuckles when the latter kidnaps him
- The Vicious 6 (main villains) plot revenge against Gru for stealing the film's MacGuffin: the Zodiac Stone
The Rise of Gru, as I said, balances those three subplots nicely, and the franchise's new formula seems to always suprise people despite being REALLY obvious: a villain wants to rule the world with a MacGuffin, someone will go missing, and the protagonists set off on a quest to master some kind of art or self-discover their lost past. This movie's action is amazing for an Illumination movie, as well as those references to Despicable Me and the depictions of 70s pop culture. However, like any movie, it has ONE SINGLE thing that is not bad, but could have worked better: The MacGuffin is not as important as it seems; rather, the film focuses on those 3 subplots I mentioned earlier. Final veredict:
Minions: The Rise of Gru might not be at the franchise's top standards, but its fresh animation, humor and generic but well-working plot makes it worth watching.
