Despicable Me 4 Movie Review - Illumination has figured out the recipe for keeping kid's attention. Despicable Me 4 jumps all over the place at such a frantic pace, it's hard to remember what's even going on at times. Still, for all the flaws, Despicable Me 4 has Minions and at the end of the day, that's all that matters.

Regretfully took the family yesterday to this one and it was painful on the wallet and soul. The weird accent voices was the worst part for me, I was already annoyed with Gru's character going in and then they had to throw in Will Farrell and Sofia Vergara, man it was rough on the ears.

That’s what I call the accent switcheroo: giving a character some kind of accent and silly manner of speaking as a substitute for personality.

I only paid 12 dollars for me and a friend to go see it because we had nothing else to do with our time. I would say it was very worth it. It's a fun movie. Especially for 12 dollars idk how much you spent on your WHOLE family going

I really like this franchise and I haven't watched this new movie but they really love milking these kid franchises until there is nothing left. They're making a 5th Shrek and Toy Story movie. It's like damn, can anything just end anymore.

I saw it. I liked it okay. It was just entertainment and fun in my opinion. I don't have mega high expectations here. Spoiler - There were a few adult jokes that made me laugh like when the villian was at the gas station, Gru couldn't get regular old fashioned milk, I Am To Sexy played as the smug father next door drove away, I am just saying there were a few jokes that hit me pretty good. IDK to me it is worth a see at a matinee price. Also the song during the last 5 minutes was really good. We left on a positive and bright note.

Sofia Vergara purposely exaggerates her accent. I have known about her since the early 90s when she came out in an Univision tv show. Her accent isn’t that thick

@@amacookies89 Totally agree!! She went Hollywood and split with her husband and ALL she's doing is like you said - 'STEREROTYPES' and it's not just annoying but it's insulting to us as intelligent viewers. These 'actors' are supposed to be in the land of 'MAKE BELIEVE IN HOLLYWOOD' and they just put themselves in artistic corners where they will be stuck.

I have enjoyed this franchise in the past, but in this one it felt like they were more interested in doing a bunch of minion shorts and threw in a thin storyline for Gru to make it a feature length movie. I didn’t hate it, but I instantly forgot about it. Kids will love though, and I guess thats what matters.

@@NicolasConnault my granddaughter is 4. Most of the kids I saw in the theatre were around kindergarten age. Idk why this has to turn into some kind of serious debate about something made for small children. I’ll agree it wasn’t nearly as good as the other films but I stand by my first comment. We had a great time seeing this movie with its flaws and it was cheap. Seeing it on the cheap was my main point. It was only 10$ for both of us. I’m sorry our experience was different from yours and that it bugs you so much. You don’t have to reply to every comment, you can post your own opinion separately.
