The Minions used to be o.k. and all, but now their popularity has gone too far. What was bad about this movie was focusing on the now annoying minions and very surreal parts.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I stood in the pouring rain in California, hailed a cab and wasted twenty dollars of my own money to see this abomination with my family. Let me state to emphasize, THIS MOVIE IS AN ABSOLUTE **** WASTE OF YOUR MONEY AND TIME. No subtitles on the generic minion main characters throughout the entire movie. No Gru until the very end and even then its just his toddler form. But the biggest crime? SANDRA BULLOCK WRITTEN BORING?! That is NOT how you make use of a good actress movie...NO....just no.

Minions need a master find master master dies rinse and repeat until you gouge your eyes out so you never have to see such a retarded movie ever again. NONE of the charm of Despicable Me 1 and 2, all hollow and all the characters ARE NOT....FUNNY. I laughed all of four times, my father fell asleep the entire time and then he woke up at the end and said and I'll never forget this **** "That movie was two hours too long." And I agree.

STAY THE **** AWAY FROM MINIONS THIS MOVIE IS POISON!… Expand

This movie is for anybody without a sane sense of humor, or for anybody has not passed the age of 'Oh cutie!'. The plot is awful and stupid, and the characters don't make any sense.

The movie is ultimately bad. The Despicable me I, II were much more interesting. It looks like this movie was outsourced to some cheap and lousy company. I cannot believe that it was created by the same team.

Los efectos graficos de los primeros 5 minutos de la pelicula excelentes, el resto de la pelicula para olvidar, 2 villanos Scarlett y Herb crudos, desabridos

Realmente una pelicula no puede depender de tanta tonteria y estupideces recurrentes, personajes bobos como los minions, que sirven como acompañantes y dan un giro necesario en las peliculas de GRU, pero mas de 90 minutos REALMENTE FASTIDIAN.

Humor BOBO

Cinepolis en Mexico esperaba salas llenas , sin embargo sus salas quedaron SEMIVACIAS, no fue el boom que tanto esperaban.

La Sala en la que me encontraba se encontraba en SILENCIO, solo uno que otro niño se reia, al final los comentarios de la gente fueron que estuvo PATETICA, CHAFA, GUARRA.

Realmente me dolieron los 53 pesos que me salio el 3D.

If you've ever seen Despicable Me or its sequel, you will definitely remember the little yellow tic-tacs called the Minions. They stole the show in almost every scene they were in, and they were memorable and cute little sidekicks. However,If you've ever seen Despicable Me or its sequel, you will definitely remember the little yellow tic-tacs called the Minions. They stole the show in almost every scene they were in, and they were memorable and cute little sidekicks. However, too much of a good thing isn't necessarily a good thing, and the origin story for the Minions is the perfect example of that. Minions shows what those little bananas did before they met Gru as they journey to the International Supervillain Convention in 1968 and become henchmen to the world's most notorious villain, Scarlet Overkill. The issues with Minions are present from the very first scene and continue throughout the entire film. Much of the humor, as agonizing as this sounds, is supposed to come from the way the Minions talk. That wears out its welcome extremely quickly as you can imagine. Even the jokes that don't concern the Minions are reused numerous times throughout the film, making this movie tedious and repetitive. That could be somewhat forgiven if Minions had interesting characters or a compelling enough story, but unfortunately, this film has none of that. The Minions aren't exactly dramatic characters; they're always the sidekicks, destined to be overshadowed by the villains they serve. Even Scarlet Overkill is a fairly generic villain. She doesn't have any sort of special powers or a unique personality to distinguish herself from other power-hungry female villains. There's never any sort of drama or development with her character. Now onto the unfocused and rushed plot. If you have the attention span of a goldfish, you might find the plot of Minions to be fun, but anyone else will feel like they're being suffocated by the insanity of this film. This movie just never takes a break. There's never a moment where you can calm your senses from the insanity of the previous scene, and it's not because it's some action-packed spectacle. It seemed like the filmmakers were trying to fit as much as they possibly could into each scene so that much younger kids wouldn't be bored. Minions might entertain the least demanding moviegoers and their very young children, but anyone else should stay away from the contrived plot, tired jokes and dull characters littered throughout this movie.… Expand

They trulyThe minions are great sidekicks, and sometimes they have hit such hilarious moments in the despicable me franchise that it was hard to dislike them, they are such good characters for comedic effect. But for comedic effect only. They truly cannot carry their own film, and their repeated jokes and gags get rapidly boring, only appealing to the kind of audience who enjoys raunchy and mindless humour. And that is about everything I can say about minions, because this movie is stretched to such thin material, that I find no purpose in talking about story or character development or moral messages because there are none. I would recommend seeing this film if you are a die-hard fan of this franchise, because if you are not, chances are you will end up disliking this film. (P.S, I would not show this film to a kid younger than 6 years old, sometimes it crosses the line)… Expand

The minions were one of the best parts of the original Despicable Me films, but here they tried to give each one a personality and that just didn't work out, all of the characters were not memorable, I wouldn't have cared in they had all died, that would have done for a better story anyways.… Expand

Obviously, the movie was a way to make more money than they already have. And the publicity of them is SO BAD, they ruined the definition of minions.

I had not seen the Despicable Me movies and so did not have much context for what this movie was going to be about. That said, my wife and I were surprised at how violent the movie is - there is even a torture segment - and there are many times where the characters refer directly to trying to kill each other.

The whole concept of the minions is that they want to find an evil boss to worship. I did not find the movie kid appropriate for my 3-year-old, and I found the humor and plot lacking for adults. So I'm not really sure who this movie is appropriate for. The minions speak mildly amusing gibberish mixed with recognizable words from different languages thrown in randomly. That's the only good thing about the movie. But after about 45 minutes of incoherent minions and an incoherent violent plot, we were ready to be done. I guess buy the toys and do yourself a favor and skip the movie.… Expand

靠著人物的出名來寫出一個慵懶的劇本並不是一個出賣小小兵，吸引大量觀眾觀賞的好方法
能夠深入淺出才是一個解決之道
在電影院中家長牽著小孩，電影院中坐滿慕名而來的青少年們，我必須講出實情
