DESPICABLE ME 2 (Theatrical Release USA 2013)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.6|5.0 Starsìììì

Despicable Me 2 turns into a better film than Despicable Me and Minions. The Minions continue to be lovable until covered with a dangerous mutagen. Gru becomes increasingly civilized. The script and dialogue are excellent with good portrayal of story. This film becomes an excellent choice for the child/adult share.
