Despicable Me 2 Movie Review: | |
| As a sequel [it] stands level with the first film (also directed by Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud), and may have the edge on it. Mary F. Pols-TIME Magazine [A] remarkably tepid sequel to the surprise 2010 hit ... Bruce Ingram-Chicago Sun-Times If you're looking for quality prepackaged, predigested Hollywood family fun this summer, you could do a lot worse than Despicable Me 2. Tirdad Derakhshani-Philadelphia Inquirer "Despicable Me 2" is light on its feet, visually inventive and very fast with the repartee. It requires actors who can pull off the many peppery lines at warp speed and in that the film is lucky with its voice cast. Betsy Sharkey-Los Angeles Times Heartfelt and hilarious, smart and silly, action-packed but never violent, "Despicable Me 2" is that rare sequel that outshines its beginnings. James Rocchi-MSN Movies The animation is beguiling, particularly when Lucy drives her car into the ocean, transforming it into a submarine that scoots around sharks and fish. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post This is a sequel that's even less necessary than Monsters University; often times it feels like the movie can't even justify it's own existence while you're watching it. Drew Taylor-The Playlist Despicable Me 2 does have the whiff of focus-group research about it -- more minions! -- but the story, by the same duo that wrote the original (and the same directors, too), also feels like a natural extension of the first film. Chris Knight-National Post The film easily surpasses the original, while leaving room for further sequels. Rob Vaux-Mania.com We do get a solid 40 minutes of Hart's new routine, one that shows his transition from underdog entertainer to front-rank, stand-up star. Gary Thompson-Philadelphia Daily News Those who adore the Minions and want more light-hearted fun in the zany Despicable Me universe should get what they are looking for in the sequel. Sandy Schaefer-ScreenRant "Despicable Me 2" lags on occasion, but every time I found my attention waning, the filmmakers did something wicked to goose me. Odie Henderson-RogerEbert.com It's all good fun. If you have kids...they'll squeal. And, even adults will like the minions and the 3D effects. Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers Given the outlandish premise, you'll wish the film twinkled with a more savvy sense of humor and adventure, like the chapters of the Toy Story series, for example. Steve Davis-Austin Chronicle wonderfully imaginative and fun with a masterful use of 3D and breathtaking precision-timed action sequences that are both exciting and hilarious. And there are minions. Nell Minow-Beliefnet As amusing as the minions can be, they aren't enough to carry the movie. Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly Not as consistently funny as the original, Despicable Me 2 still proves itself a quite-capable sequel, one that moves the characters and their stories along in humorous and often sweet ways. Kirk Baird-Toledo Blade More minions and romance make for a sweet, silly sequel. Sandie Angulo Chen-Common Sense Media The Minions' decision to go solo next year is the smartest move since The Simpsons severed their relationship with Tracey Ullman. Erick Weber-NECN Culminates in a double-music video finish designed to see audiences out in a pop-narcotic laughing-gas daze. As a tactic, it's a poor substitute for a satisfying story. Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews Gru and his minions in a sequel that doesn't run out of gas. John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) It would have been funnier to see an inkling of the old Gru peeking through, perhaps momentarily swayed by the idea of rejoining the dark side. He's just so (shudder) nice. Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI) [Despicable] Me 2, even at its weakest, is still a charmer. Bilge Ebiri-Vulture | |
