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.… Expand

While I'm not a fan of Illumination and their many bad movies, The Minions franchise is always an exception from me.

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

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.… Expand

This is arguably the best movie of 2022, and I wouldn't be surprised if it gets an oscar nomination like Boss Baby. 10 Bananas out of 10. I will be seeing this movie at least 2 more times.

Uncomplicated movie, able to be enjoyed by everyone. No apparent agenda. Kids movie made for kids, instead of more preachy pandering and virtue signaling.
