Despicable Me

Gru does for super villains what Mr. Incredible did for super heroes! Made for great movie for children and adults alike. At least parents won't feel like falling asleep.

Rated PG for rude humor and mild action.

It’s easy to lose count on
how many 3D animated features have hit theaters in the last year. “Despicable
Me” is just another CG animated film released in theaters with 3D attached to
lure kids into begging their parents to go because “3D is like, so cool!” It
really is a shame that the focus of the marketing for ‘Despicable Me’ is on the
3D rather than on the actual funny and at times touching story. Even the near
masterpiece, “Toy Story 3” has been mired down in a bunch of 3D ads that make
it look like 3D is what makes it a good movie. Isn’t it about time movie
studios stop advertising 3D as the big selling point, and focus on how good the
movie actually is?

3 1/2 out of 5
