Review of Despicable Me 2 (2013) by Brunovn00 — 02 Jun 2019

This movie is the definition of lazy in almost every aspect: From the animation to the writing. The animation is awful and not because it looks bad or the character models are low-poly or blocky, but still manages to look cheap. The writing is awful with a boring predictable plot with boring characters and all the humor is reduced to "Minions doing things", oh yeah, the minions, they are loud, annoying, obnoxious and just made to make laugh the lowest common denominator, which is stupid kids or retarded adults.

The first movie was actually good, sure not great because there was still some dumb stuff, but at least had a creative concept with a decent execution, but this one doesn't have any creativity in any aspect.

Being a kids movie isn't an excuse to not care. Kids don't deserve to watch this level of stupidity. There are tons of animated movies aimed towards children that actually have depth and can actually teach kids some good things while at the same time being enjoyable for adults, but this movie isn't.

I can't believe this was nominated for an Oscar instead of a movie like Monsters University which was a far better animated movie.

I don't give this a 0/10 because it's at least watchable. A 0 is reserved for movies I seriously can't stand.
