Product Description: Vying for the title of “World’s Greatest Villain”, Gru (voiced by Steve Carell) – along with his hilarious crew of mischievous minions – plots to pull off the craziest crime of the century: steal the moon! But when Gru enlists the help of three little girls, they see something in him nobody else has ever seen: the perfect dad. From executive producer Chris Meledandri (Horton Hears a Who, Ice Age), and featuring the voices of an all-star comedic cast, including Jason Segel, Russell Brand, Miranda Cosgrove and Julie Andrews, Despicable Me is “rousingly funny, heartfelt and imaginative”.
****I never saw this movie in theatres, so watching it for the first time was exciting. We’ve seen all the commercials and my kids have been begging to see it. The movie started out kind of boring, but as soon as the minions came on everything got exciting and funny. Now there aren’t to many funny parts , but there are a few and they had my kids on the floor. An evil villan is set out to steal the moon, but is distracted by the children he adopted for his evil plan. When he decides to give them back and go through with his plan, they are kidnapped and he tries to rescue them. He does and they live happily together as a family. my favorite part would have to be when he kisses the girls goodnight and then the minions say can we have some kissy Kissy! Or at the end when they all dance. I have to warn you though there are some words in this movie that may be disgusting, such as fart, poop, butt among a couple of others. We really enjoyed this movie.

I havent seen it either- and it sounds like a cute movie 🙂
(and fart, poop, butt are giggle words for most kids- they have heard all 3 )
Great review!
I absolutely loved this movie; the hubby and I saw it in the theatre when it came out. Our favourite part is when Agnes gets her unicorn and exclaims, “IT’S SO FLUFFY!” – we laughed and laughed and laughed…! Can’t wait to get this on blu-ray.
Haven’t seen it yet either, on our list for the holiday break. from the trailers we have seen, I think it will be good to watch for some good laughs,I think they are cute!
