Despicable Me 2

I am a massive fan of Despicable Me, I love the Minions and what the BBFC call "slapstick violence"

Much of the slapstick violence does little to extend the plot and is there purely for the laugh, so the film becomes just a sequence of Minion slapstick and loses focus regularly, however since this is probably why most people watch the film, the plot is almost unimportant.

The plot, such as it is, continued from the first movie, with Gru now a Father and ex-villain, the direction the story is going is obvious very early on, and once you realise where it's going you can almost forget about it and just enjoy the jokes

I saw the 2D version, but the end credit sequence is a 3D dream, and I will probably go back next weekend just to enjoy the end credits in 3D.

Hilariously funny throughout, especially if you enjoyed the first movie, and enjoyed the increasingly stupid slapstick antics of the minions. 8/10
