Too much of everything

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

A movie about minions, what can you expect, Can I just talk about the jokes In this film, 1 I found actually funny and another joke was like "Wow that's kinda neat".The music was meh with some good songs and the animation was alright, the story was horrible and so were the character developments, and the characters in general.Some things don't add up in the movie, like there is this chase scene and this guy uses some paintball looking weapon, when he could have use and basooka in the back of his car, or how the they just randomly say bob is the king when he pulled the sword from the stone and kick out queen Elizabeth II, horrible movie, doesn't have that many good parts, watch it just to take the piss

The story is simple - too simple, in fact. Basically, the minions are looking for an evil master, because apparently that's what they've evolved to do from the beginning of time - serve the most evil master they can find. So we spend an hour and a half that we'll never get back watching them trying to find their appropriately evil master.Sure. It's cute. So cute, in fact, that it comes across as almost a kiddie movie. Which is completely unlike the "Despicable Me" movies, which were enjoyable to people of all ages. But in those movies, the story was driven not by the minions, but by the evil Gru - who made things a lot of fun and added a touch of humanity and even emotion to the story. But basically in this, it's the minions. Yes, there's Scarlet Overkill - but did anybody really take Scarlet Overkill seriously as an evil super-villain? It's certainly possible to get a few chuckles out of the minions playing around and being silly - but it wears pretty thin after about the first 15 minutes or so, without any "meat" to go along with it.I confess that this finally put me into a stupor and I nodded off for a little bit - meaning that I actually missed how it was that the minions managed to save England. And I didn't really care. I'm just glad that I did wake up in time to see the best part of the movie - when the minions finally find their true master - the young Gru! (4/10)

Minions: Movie Review.Minions is an enjoyable entertaining animation movie for kids as well as for adults too, with its funny comedy scenes it will keep making adults laugh and smile too. 3D Aspect of the Minions Movie is great and and Animation is fantastic. The characterization of Minions are excellent and Visual Effects (CGI, VFX) are brilliant. The movie looks very good visually. I watched the movie in 3D and one can literally feel all the little Minions jumping out of the screen.The performance of Pierre Coffin (as the Minions), is must watch and it is positive point of the movie. Its entertaining and worth watching. Minions is directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda. The directors have done a satisfactory jobs in creating a good prequel/spin off Minions Movie. Their creative vision of crafting those awesome and amazing little Minions is amazing. The performances are good. Pierre Coffin as the Minions is great. The character of Sandra Bullock as Scarlett Overkill is OK, but not up too the mark, somehow it misses the perfection mark. Michael Keaton and Geoffrey Rush as supporting characters were OK, and the rest of the cast characters were good but sidelined.Minions has lots of flaws too. The story plot structure is bad, the script and screenplay seems to be underwhelming at certain times and there is no strong support to the movie from the story point of view. There are lots of unnecessary and underdeveloped characters, especially the character of Scarlett Overkill (Sandra Bullock) is very under utilized and does not feel too good. The story plot line is somewhat weak, its like anything is happening anytime without any proper effect.Minions are delight to watch. I enjoyed the movie, its a good cinema time for your kids and maybe for you too.(Please Note: That This Review represent only my professional point of view and my personal honest opinion about the film, and does not represent others. Thank You).

This movie takes the best feature of the movies Despicable Me (2010) and Despicable Me 2 (2013) and turns it into its own feature films…the minions! This movie take place BG—that is "before Gru." We learn that minions are creatures whose only satisfaction is to serve the evilest villains on earth. We see that since the dawn of time, the minions have served the worst villains from cavemen to Dracula—albeit not to the greatest success. The minions fall on dark times, where they have no villain to serve. This causes the entire minion civilization to fall into a great depression, until one day, the minion Kevin decides to set off on a quest to find the most evil villain on earth for the minions to serve. Kevin begins his quest by finding his way to Villain-Con, a convention for all of the world's super villains. It ends up that Kevin and his two apprentices Stuart and Bob fall under the employment of Scarlett Overkill, the world's first female Super-villain. Together they plot to steal the crown of the Queen of England, and the adventure unfolds. This movie is non-stop laughs from the Universal Pictures presents screen right to the Illumination Entertainment logo after the end credits roll. Much of the movie takes place in the minion language (which while incomprehensible borrows words from French, Spanish and Italian; and those are just the languages I detected). Still without understanding exactly what the minions are saying you can understand the messages conveyed, particularly when they are mocking each other for failing—some of the funniest scenes of the movie. For the third movie in a franchise this movie lives up to the first two films. A wise move to take a lovable, adorable, and hysterical character and spin off it's own film.
