Despicable Me 4 Review | Should it be More than a Trilogy?

After 7 years since we saw them in Despicable Me 3, the adult version of Gru is back with his family and his legion of Minions in Despicable Me 4. In this review, we’ll see if Gru can pass the ultimate test that few movie franchises are able to pass, and that is to still be strong after its trilogy. Even if Despicable Me 4 is getting the help of Maxime Le Mal and the Mega Minions to spice up the adventure, will that be enough to avoid a bad review and not have people develop franchise fatigue?

Despicable Me doesn’t need any more sequels because of franchise fatigue and woody woodpecker needs to be back at the spotlight as universal’s true mascot.

[@devanhinskey9001]

Universal already has a franchise with too many pointless cashgrab sequels. It’s called “The Land Before Time”.

[@AquiNoHayNadaParaTi.4]

The irony of Illumination being against AI and anti-artitst movements, yet their films are soulless cashgrabs.

I disagree about the villain. Despite being voiced incredibly well by Will Ferrell, the character himself was pretty... Boring.

[@claytonrios1]

I think this franchise has run its course. Especially with a villain who's the Illumination equivalent of Le Paradox from Sly Cooper.

[@lexramstudios1386]

To be honest, Despicable Me 4 was better than the third one and this movie felt like a finale to the series

[@aidanhever3369]

Guys, give the Despicable Me series a rest. At least you have Super Mario Bros. and other Nintendo properties to focus on.

[@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004]

I am fine with Illumination taking a break from Despicable Me after this and focus on The Super Mario Bros and other Nintendo movies.

[@tacoderpfrenzy7841]

I did not realize the last movie was 7 yrs old! It feels so much more recent than that.

[@tubguinace]

I will never understand how Animatt can never see how soulless almost everything Illumination makes is

[@alexismartinez8343]

I hate to say this......Illumination announced a Minions 3 and tease a possibility Despicable Me 5. So yeah, Illumination won't let this franchise go. Illumination is making an ICE AGE franchise out of it.

"Should it be more than a trilogy?"

[@03mbc]

The fact Chris Renuard say that the girls aren't gonna age up and having a Minions 3 in 2027

[@CaptainCat101]

Now I question why I was obsessed with the Minions in elementary school. I enjoy the first two movies, but not enough for so many sequels and spinoffs

[@danielsvetlichny5721]

I will admit that the only one who is fun is Maxime Le Mal because he happens to be French, a great and sophisticated design and voice performance by Will Ferrell

[@jamesgeorgi6627]

To paraphrase your conclusion bit in your Kung Fu Panda 4 review, “If there’s one thing that’ll justify this movie’s existence other than Gru Jr, is that it did gave us the unofficial battle of Gru vs Megamind. I’m sure some will take that as a reason to bring Gru back”

[@DandyBuzzard95]

I was very turned off by the idea of a Despicable Me 4, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that they actually added something kind of new to the franchise. I always thought Gru having a son would make a good plotline for a film and they delivered just that! So I was happy to find out that they still maintained the same fun family entertainment the previous three films offered. However, I am not excited for the Minions cinematic universe. But as long as these films keep making money, they'll keep making them. :P

There's one thing that made Despicable Me (and Illumination in general) a household name:

[@johnnymanize]

I hear that Minions 3 will be released in 2027 and there’s talks of a Despicable Me 5
