Mark Kermode reviews Despicable Me 2

[@wolfman8325]

He disliked the first one, yet really enjoyed despicable me 2? They're not that different . . . in fact some of the funniest moments are from the original, and it had a lot of great visual gags too. They're both very good kids films.

He must have been in a good mood that day, usually not so forgiving.

Loved this, it was as good for the adults as it was for the kids. Animation at its best.

So, as I was sitting in the theater and laughing. And smiling. And my 15 year old was enjoying it as well. Favorite line was Agent Lucy Wilde's "That pollo is loco." I don't know why. It just was. But I was surprised to find it so entertaining. And I was surprised that I cried.

"HEHE Bottom"

[@GrandiaKnight]

I am ashamed to say that since I saw this film last week I have been wandering around London saying bottom everytime I see the poster!

Did not see that coming, I normally avoid non Pixar animated stuff but am interested

[@servomoore]

I'm still a bit wary. I wasn't very fond of those yellow things in the first movie save one or two sight gags.

hahaha! good one my friend! good one! I love Mark Kermode though. I mean obviously people who would get exposed to that much film would start being a bit picky, but I think he's doing a great job. I thought he was going to tear this movie apart, i'm actually very surprised he liked it.

[@MattCrawley_Music]

funniest film i have ever seen.

[@thechillingvillan]

Anyone else just spotted a young Grimes playing the youngest daughter?

A bit of a flip Mr Kermode compared to your review of the first Despicable Me which I loved and thought was laugh out loud funny, but you called derivative and I felt was unfairly negative about. Do you stand by that prior review or do you feel you were unduly harsh?

[@Rueuhy]

I was really debating myself about seeing another movie this weekend. I guess I need to take my son to this one. You know - for his benefit and all. I'm starting to trust the Kermode's judgement. And I really have trust issues so that's a big deal.

[@johnnyboyz86]

The sad thing is that there are people in their late 20's who come out of films saying things such as that.

[@murfx]

Bottom....

[@ardenaudreyarji]

Like when he said The Twilight Saga is better than Star Wars?

[@jhill89]

[@jhill89]
