Despicable Me 4 Review | Should it be More than a Trilogy?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 жов 2024
- 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?

#DespicableMe4 #DespicableMe #MovieReview
Universal already has a franchise with too many pointless cashgrab sequels. It’s called “The Land Before Time”.
another one as well called "Ice Age"!
Make new D.M. Movies without Aging Gru & Lucy's 4 Kids.
@@Scrat351 That's from Blue Sky and Fox (now Disney)
@@pennysanchez7656 oh yeah i forgot that one was from Disney. thanks to informing me
True
"Should it be more than a trilogy?"
I wondered the same thing when Toy Story 4 came out.
How about Continental Drift?
also i am skeptical about frozen's 2 other sequels,
disney, make sure it is not doing franchise fatigue
Same with Kung Fu Panda and Frozen is doing the same thing
@@kierahenley2335Ani Mat's review on Toy Story 4 aged like milk and spinach btw.
@@liamphibiaI'm calling it he'll give 5 the Seal Of Appoval even if it my be a s****y movie
I think this franchise has run its course. Especially with a villain who's the Illumination equivalent of Le Paradox from Sly Cooper.
I remember reading the villain looking like Doofinshcutz (i know I might've spelled his name wrong, i's cause I didn't watch Pheneas and Ferb), but now I can't unsee Le Maul as both him and Le Paradox combined lol.
@@AshParth560 The French accent helps the comparison.
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.
For me personally, the franchise should remain a trilogy and the fourth film should have been the series finale where Gru can settle down his ways as a villain and start a new chapter with his family and spend his simple life as a father of the family.
Interesting how the second and fourth movies of both deal with the main character finding love (2) and dealing with their baby/teenage son/daughter (4)
Well, it's their money maker. The entire franchise alone has grossed them BILLIONS of dollars, and it's only gonna get bigger from there.
A New Despicable Me Sequel, New Villian wants Gru to go back to his Villian Roots, Gru Refuse that He's an AVL Agent, a Heist on the Maguffin of the Movie.
if they want to continue it they should just give it a tv show
In my opinion. Despicable me should had been a one time film and not a franchise imo.
To be honest, Despicable Me 4 was better than the third one and this movie felt like a finale to the series
@Shrek-c1nuh all I’ve heard is that minions three is green lit how do you know there’s going to be 5th one.
I dissagree, the entire movie was pointless, gru goes into hiding because he cant face villain only to have the villain find him and and gru ends up facing him without any gadgets, so the movie was pointless he may as well have just delt with him
The fact Chris Renuard say that the girls aren't gonna age up and having a Minions 3 in 2027
Make me want to say and quote from your Rise of Gru review
Oh god there gonna run this thing to the ground are they?
And it kinda of odd that the SUBPLIOTS from Sing 2 & The Secret Life of Pets 2 not only entertaining but at least come together in the 3rd act.
17:00 I honestly don't blame you
Still a pretty enjoyable flim 7/10
@@03mbc Sing 2 did it better than The Secret Life Of Pets 2 and Despicable Me 4
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 true that
@@03mbc I still can’t believe AniMat gave Sing 2 only a 6/10. Which is his opinion but I wish he gave it higher than the first movie maybe even the seal of approval because I thought Illumination got that moment with Sing 2 when it released. And also The Super Mario Bros Movie as well.
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 yeah the ranting should be higher
@@03mbc I am glad you agree with me. I thought it was gonna be the first Illumination movie that gets the AniMat’s Seal Of Approval. Besides he gave the first movie a 7/10 I thought he was gonna pull a How To Train Your Dragon 2 by rating it higher than the first movie which got only a decent score. Hopefully that would happen to The Super Mario Bros Movie 2 though.
I did not realize the last movie was 7 yrs old! It feels so much more recent than that.
If you're thinking recent, the recent was Minions: Rise of Gru.
Then again, Rise of Gru was a sequel to Minions and both that and Rise of Gru are prequels to Despicable Me.
But yeah, he third is seven years old.
The 1st movie turns 15 next year.
I am fine with Illumination taking a break from Despicable Me after this and focus on The Super Mario Bros and other Nintendo movies.
I heard that they’re making Minions 3 for 2027
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
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”
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
That was the only part I enjoyed from the previous film was the villain’s performance. The last DM film got Trey Parker & now they got Will Ferrell so that’s a decent touch
Unfortunately he was a really boring antagonist throughout the film. He's not really that threatening of a guy compared to Vector, El Macho, or Scarlett Overkill. The Gru family had absolutely no reason to go into hiding from this guy when he could very easily be sucker punched in the face and *boom* movie over.
What? Hes the worst villain in the franchise, he dosent do anything, gru had to run because he couldnt face him but by the end of the movie he is facing him wothout any gadgets, so why bother running? Gru could have easily delt with him at any time
@@Somerandomnobodyonyoutube THANK YOU!
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
I ask my self the same but instead of obsessing about the minions it was actually obsessing over the first film.
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.
I herd Illumination wants to do a film based on a book called The Giving Tree and Steven Spielberg might be involve in the film
Yes, thank you! Woody Woodpecker needs to be brought back into the spotlight the right way. With the right writers or people, they could bring woody into this modern age the right way
Oooooo that’s a wonderful idea!
@@aaronlo9651NO YOUR JOKING!
Agreed Woody is their true mascot and he needs to be treated as such forget the Minions Woody needs to return and claim his rightful throne
Guys, give the Despicable Me series a rest. At least you have Super Mario Bros. and other Nintendo properties to focus on.
There's one thing that made Despicable Me (and Illumination in general) a household name: *MINIONS*
The sucess of the Minions is extreme and historic, they are literally in every place that you imagine and that's why *"Despicable Me"* is still going
As it is true, from that one clip from The Mortal Engines movie, the Minions are now our new American Deities. XD
The 4th movie was the perfect finale IMO.
It's the FUNNIEST out of all the movies. 4 had me laughing from beginning to end.
2024 is not a good year for fourth installment animated franchises. First Kung Fu Panda 4 and now Despicable Me 4. I believed Ice Age 4 or Toy Story 4 started this trend for started a trend of animated fourth sequels.
This does worried me for Frozen 4 and potential Cars 4 and Madagascar 4.
At least we have good sequel with Inside Out 2 and maybe Moana 2 could be next. 👍🏻
Isnt Madagascar 4 technically Penguins of Madagascar ?
@nicholassims9837 No. Penguins of Madagascar is more like a spin off to the Madagascar. Like Puss in Boots 🐱🐈👢 in Shrek franchise.
@@alexismartinez8343 still Penguins is more connected to Madagascar then Puss is to Shrek
Eh I take cars 4 over frozen 4 any day
@nicholassims9837 It is still a spin off.
13:32 THAT GRU FU-! 😂
@@calebdoerksen2 🤣🤣🤣
Shrink ray again 😏😏😏
@@danielgudinojuarez6729 don't even think about it😳
All gru needed to do is punch him and then he falls and the minions take him out. Stakes aren’t really raised in a meaningful way.
0:00 How everyone felt when they watched this movie XD
EXACTLY
❤️💖 Personally, a much better idea 💡 and change for the Despicable Me franchise where have all Gru's adopted daughters grown up and not any more little girls anymore.
Maybe have Agnes grown up and she becomes a villain. Gru would have to faced his own daughter Agnes and he would try to reason with her that she doesn't have to be a villain just to follow her father's footsteps and she could be whatever she wants to be. Wouldn't that been a much better idea? 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
I feel like Edith would be more likely to become a villain than Agnes considering she went through a ninja phase in the second film and expressed awe at deadly weapons.
I disagree about the villain. Despite being voiced incredibly well by Will Ferrell, the character himself was pretty... Boring.
And pointless, why did gru have to hide from him? In the end he was taken down when gru didnt have any of his tech, if gru stayed where he was he would have easily taken him down
I hear that Minions 3 will be released in 2027 and there’s talks of a Despicable Me 5
Illumination is gonna just milk this franchise bone dry, aren’t they?
this franchise is literally illumination's ice age dear god why
Well thats not really supprising at all, I mean we are talking about Illumination here.
After seeing the Minions 3 announcement, I'm telling myself, "Yeah, I think I'm done for the moment and well, if kids and fans of series are looking forward to it, be my guest".
Just gonna let em have fun with it.
@@JCDenton205 It’s a good thing Sony Pictures Animation had the good sense to bow out the Hotel Transylvania franchise. Especially considering that they’ve since been making MUCH better movies
@@AshParth560 Who knows? Maybe they’ll make that one joke from Family Guy canon
❤️💖 You know what could've made a much better Despicable Me spin off film? Why not focused Lucy Wilde as the main character? The franchise already focused too much on Gru and the minions. And have this Lucy Wilde movie take a break from the Minions and focused more on Lucy Wilde solo movie on how she became a spy in her origin story and how she met Gru which takes place in the events between the first and second movie. She could saved the world 🌎 from an evil villain who has connected to Lucy Wilde.
Illumination did dirty to Lucy in the third and fourth movie. Lucy Wilde deserves more love and attention and she was my favorite character in the franchise. She was a sweetheart to Gru's personal life. 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
@@alexismartinez8343 I thought they did her good in 4 since he had more screen time than 3.
Despicable Me is my FAVORITE franchise from Illumination! I loved the 4th installment because of the MEGA MINIONS and Gru. Jr!
I will never get over how Gru's son is technically named "Gru Gru".
that poor kid is never gonna live that down...
Actually, his full name is Felonious Gru Jr
I for one don’t have a problem with more Despicable Me movies. More projects for Miranda Cosgrove are always welcome in my book
As a Despicable me fan, I saw the movie myself and it was fine. I would say it was the weakest of the main despicable me films, but definitely not a bad one. I had the same issues with the story as well of it feels very sloppy disorganized, and some of the characters don’t have enough chemistry to give them a purpose. I would even say Gru jr at times had some of the weaker jokes, but still I loved the comedy and animation of the film. The minion shenanigans does not disappoint me. Thank god Maxine is not the mime stereotype for a French villain. Overall I think it’s a 6.5/10 for me.
Moana 2 is just gonna be okay, unless those reviews prove me wrong this fall
16:49 I feel as if Ferrel decided to voice Maxinme over Megamind again
And made the right decision
My guy really dodged a bullet there. Let's just hope if DreamWorks makes a sequel, he'll come back.
And I mean a REAL sequel, not the pilot to a TV series that makes the Monsters vs Aliens TV series (yes, that exists) look like Avatar: the Last Airbender!
I just notice he change the thumbnail
I think it's time for Illumination to move away from Despicable Me and the Minions; I want to see what else they can do with Nintendo
Better yet, evolve from their generic animation style, learn actual character development, and create engaging movies instead of making the animation equivalent to junk food
You’re in luck cuz the Mario sequel is the next illumination movie
What was wrong with the old thumbnail?
Let’s hope that Despicable Me doesn’t become the next Ice Age.
Oh my dear boy..... It's only the beginning and one last thing except the Unexpected
wow, they actually did what ice age failed to do, be successful by movie 4
I am surprised that he didn't give it a garbage seal. I liked it as well. Especially with Maxime le Mal. He is way better than megamind.
You're cooked megamind told me that he's coming straight to your place 💀
@@maryannacruz6706 be glad he didn’t give it that seal. I was kinda expecting him to give it that seal and giving the story: 2/10 animation: 7/10 characters: 4//10 but gladly he didn’t do that. Still glad he keeps that 7/10 Illumination streak since The Super Mario Bros Movie.
@@Jcea20 Noooo! Bruh!
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 they never got an animat seal of garbage and I'm so surprised
@@maryannacruz6706 yes you're cooked
The new Despicable Me movie was ok except for the fact NO ONE AGED!!! No even the people from The Rise of Gru, like the most they got was little to no wrinkles and white/gray hair.
In despicable me 2
When Gru was kissing the girls goodnight, he told Agnes “never get older”
And she listened…
Personally I thought it was an improvement from Despicable Me 3.
Finally someone saying something positive about this movie,a bunch of UA-camrs I’ve watched and get recommended to me are always so negative about it.
I still haven’t seen it yet - I’m pretty sure this movie won’t be bad as people think it is - I mean Minions 3 is real after all, which means a despicable me 5 is happening too.
What a surprise! Despicable Me 4 got a higher score than Kung Fu Panda 4.
Not gonna lie, I'd give this a 6/10. I went see this with my mom in the Theater and this is a Week and a half after we went see Inside Out 2. We both found this movie a Disappointment and we both love the Despicable Me movies. It has enjoyable Moments and scenes but it wasn't enough to save the movie. Two things are for certain: The Animation is always great and Pharell Williams' Music always Slaps.
Honestly the villain also helps out too. I definitely agree on the 7/10 scoring.
Thank you for a nuanced and good review.
Since Illumination announced a Minions 3. Let's just hope they don't replace Gru with Harvey Weinstein.
I seen Despicable me 4 and it’s a mess of a movie. The movie is so unfocused. It feels like the movie doesn’t know what it wants to be, so many disconnected plot points that doesn’t really advance the main story. They’re very entertaining as it’s own. The villain rarely has any scene time. The ending is the best part of! Climatic and sweet. The love the cameros with the past villains. Why is he even obsessed with cockroaches. I think the 3rd is okay but there’s nothing like the first two movies. My favorite is Despicable me 2.
I'm glad to see some people believe this franchise still has some momentum. Even though it may not be the strongest of the film series, it is still a worthy sequel and deserves to be seen at least once.
This film was very enjoyable in my opinion. Hopefully, Minions 3 ends being a good film and ends the franchise on a good note.
The ending would have felt like a true ending if they made the kids older and if they brought all of the villains back and Gru needs to make his kids become good again after they get turned evil. Make Poppy Gru’s daughter. She looks so much like gru.
Well, at least AniMat did give it a 7 out of 10.
Maybe if the girls had aged in this one, it could have been something interesting. Seemed like there were a few hints they were growing up during the franchise, but then, nope, still kids.
If I had nickel every time Animat praised the end credits of an animated film in 2024, I’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.
The irony of Illumination being against AI and anti-artitst movements, yet their films are soulless cashgrabs.
At least there official
At least their movies are not just constantly morphing into body horror
@@myang12003 I agree
Seeing as they’ve clearly run out of things for the girls to do, they need to end the film franchise here, especially since admittedly, the ending musical number served as a pretty good tribute to the series with all the villains joining in. I feel like a fifth one would render that superfluous.
To address the ending with what you said in the review, and yes spoilers. No I don’t think it’s supposed to be the end of the series since we now have Minions 3 and presumably DM5 in 2027 and later… Minions are gonna stay for the rest of our lives now.
Personally, as much as I slightly enjoyed this over the third main installment, not counting the “Minions” spinoffs, I’m a little worried that this new entry is closely solidifying the “Despicable Me” franchise as the next “Ice Age” and/or “Hotel Transylvania”. On a side note, this is the second Illumination film where a controversial actor didn’t reprise his role since “The Secret Life of Pets 2”.
If you look at the credits, Dr. Nafario is now voiced by Romesh Ranganathan
@@danielgudinojuarez6729who also voice as Nick from Chicken Run 2

Honestly I liked the movie. It was funny, the Dutch dub with Jon van Eerd as gru and tygo Gernandt as Maxime were wonderful( for those who don’t know I’ve watched the Dutch dub in theaters ) and I found the ending pretty wholesome.
These films, minus Minions: The Rise of Gru, kept getting worse after the second film
13:50 So basically it’s same dynamic like in son of the mask but 100x funnier and more tolerable.
To me, this felt like the perfect finale to the series. And I loved it. It could be better than the original…maybe
Agreed
Does anyone think there will be another Seal of Garbage this year hopefully another 1 or 2/10 review? Also I didn't know Sofia Vergara was in this movie
Is Despicable Me turning into the next Ice Age?
Give Ice Age some credit, at least Manny’s daughter, Peaches grows up
@@connorplisga3718 yeah. But at least Despicable Me has a better track record considering it’s sequels.
Or it could be the next Land Before Time
Chris Meledandri was an executive producer on the first two Ice Age films, there's a strong connection
I really thought you were going to talk about the absence of Dru in this movie. I did hear he made a brief cameo.
I wonder if Megamind The Doom Syndicate will be the next review
13:33 "That grew fu..."
Inside Out 2 9/10
Orion and the Dark 8/10
Despicable Me 4 7/10
Ultraman: Rising 7/10
Kung Fu Panda 4 6/10
The Garfield Movie 5/10
The Tiger’s Apprentice 5/10
Thelma the Unicorn 4/10
So what is next? What about The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie?
The sandy cheeks movie is next
I guess this means how you feel about this is similar to the Mario movie. It’s interesting too since the next Mario movie comes out in 2026 and that’s Illumination’s next movie
I am waiting for Minions 3 where Gru gets replaced with Harvey Weinstein.
As someone that enjoys the previous Despicable Me films, I find this one along with Minions: The Rise Of Gru to be just OK at best. It has its entertaining moments from time to time, and some cool action sequences, but I do think it's probably time to say goodbye to Gru and the Minions. But given how Minions 3 has just been greenlit, Illumination's not going to move on from this franchise any time soon if even at all.
Maybe it will be more than a trilogy. My dad loves this franchise. What’s gonna be next for number 5? They gonna have Robo-Minions? Kaiju Minions? Dinosaur Minions? Alien Minions? Or even starring Welsh celebs like Greg Davies? Luke Evans? Rhys Ifans? Steve Speirs, or Rob Brydon?
Or have the next Minions spin-off film set in the 80s where they face a young Balthazar Bratt with references to Gummi Bears and 80s music videos with Rick Astley and have the minions play Mario on the NES? Or have the next one in the 90s with references to the Sega Genesis, the PlayStation, or the Disney Renaissance? I’d sure as hell love to find out.
Illumination just announced a Minions 3
Ya, BEWARE!!!
Oh GOD NO!!!
Wonderful 😑
Oh God, not again
So Family Guy predicted the future after all! 😮
Have you thought about doing another Pixar retrospective?
The one other Illumination film that I really am excited other than the Despicable Me and Minion movies, it has to be the follow-up to the Mario movie.
I just heard a news yesterday about minions 3 will be coming only in theaters for 2027.
Despicable me 8/10
I’d honestly rather have a Secret Life of Pets 3 and Sing 3 than Despicable Me 4. I’m not even joking.
If there’s another good thing to take away from this film other than the ending where all the past villains show up it’s that that annoying female AVL director voiced by Jenny Slate from the third film didn’t return for this one and actually got her comeuppance off-screen after wrongfully firing Gru and Lucy for a petty reason in the last film. At least the film got ONE thing right.
“You did the right thing!” - The Grinch
Wait wait wait, don't give Illumination any ideas!! I want that studio to make good original films, especially when their new adult banner "Moonlight" holds a lot of promise
To be fair though, they have been in development but we’ve heard nothing about them yet
I am so glad this movie didn’t get the seal of garbage as I was worried about. I really thought he was gonna give it seal of garbage like Ice Age 5 or Trolls 3 where he gave the latest installment the seal of garbage despite the other one’s haven’t gotten it. But glad none of the Illumination movies so far haven’t gotten that seal of garbage.
Honestly this franchise has been milked to death...it's also the reason why the minions have mixed reviews in the animation industry as characters with half the people finding them the most irritating characters of all time.
Franchise fatigue is definitely at its worst with this one. Honestly they should've just done 2 mainline movies and 1 spin-off (minions). It's insane how many movies Illumination has made.

(6/10) The Characters
I Give Despicable Me 4 (6/10) It's not the best but i rather watch this fourth movie than Hotel Transylvania Transformania
I will never understand how Animatt can never see how soulless almost everything Illumination makes is
Why? Because it's not Disney or Pixar. Not every movie has to be deep or thought provoking, they can just be goofy lighthearted fun.
@@fantasticfreddie5 I'm not asking for anything deep, Dreamworks does everything Illumination tries to do but much better. The characters and stories are just bland and lack any originality, it's very clear every time a new Despicable Me movie comes out the writers have no idea what to do with these characters, they are way too specifically designed for the first movie's plot and don't really work in many other scenarios, so they always resort to writing a series of gags loosely linked together and call it a day. I will say I enjoyed the Rise of Gru, because the writers had more breathing room and material to get creative and Gru was allowed to be a villain instead of being stuck in the awkward spot he's in now because he's redeemed, but that and the first movie are really the only good movies in the franchise honestly.
@@fantasticfreddie5 It doesn't have to be deep or thought-provoking.
But my god, they should atleast try to make something good. Something worth a theatre experience.
Much like animatt I can actually recognize some effort into illuminations films. Enough effort to not call them soulless.
@@renz1013 The only people who seem to be putting effort into these movies is the animators tbh
I’m sorry but I have lost interest in this franchise ever since I saw the third film back in 2017.
I don't care your opinión don't Matter, i want more despicable Me movies
I will respect your opinion. But hey, I will take this over the fourth f***in piece of s*** disaster f*** that was Hotel Transylvania Transformina!!! 🤬 that movie!
At least they didn't pull a Hotel Transylvania 4 where they completely ruined everything. (My god that movie was so terrible....)
@@pennysanchez7656 I know right, that movie had me going on a rampage by the time it was over!
@@Starwarsfanboy0928 That movie is stupid, no big surprise.
We got a Young Rival, a Luchadore, an Ex-Child Actor, & a Bugman as the Big Bads, What's Next?, a Former Sidekick who's never in Despicable Me Lore before as the New Antagonist?
With the amount of side plots they have and the fact that they dont want to age the girls, it just makes more sense to make it into a series. It might even work well for the studio.
I enjoy watching the despicable me and minions movies and I think the franchise is doing fine
Speaking of the ending, am I the only one thinking that’s more like fan service like what Kung Fu Panda 4 did with the villians and the Furious Five. Aren’t conclusions of franchises the kind that represent that we say goodbye to the characters
Yeah but Kung Fu Panda 4 isn’t a conclusion
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 exactly
Who wants to bet that Minions 3 is called Minions: The Dawn of Gru
@@jamesgeorgi6627 like Ice Age 3
Which ones do you hate more: Minions or Rabbids?
I think if they dialed back on the minions and focused on Gru and his family, this franchise could have been fantastic. And if they love making Minions content, crank it up for their own movies. But Despicable Me is Gru’s movie and his interactions with his family
Glad that AniMat didn’t give it a traditional 6/10 unlike most of the recent Illumination movies before The Super Mario Bros Movie.
The fact that they still haven't even aged up the little girls yet shows how this series just wants to keep doing the same thing and not move forward. They're even adding another kid in like TV shows that jumped the shark.
People when they see Shrek getting a fifth movie: yay! another shrek movie 😁😱
People when they see that they’re doing a minions 3: 🙁😡 stop milking it!
After watching the 4th film myself, it's harmless enough but personally I think this is easily the weakest of the Despicable Me franchise!! It's the same song and dance routine, but it's doing so under quantity over quality. If the creative team just gave the script one more re write and have most of the characters aged up, it could've come out more than decent. However due to having fast running time and cliche slide plots, it resulted in my viewing experience to feel betrayed no different than Kung Fu Panda 4. Either way, the folks at illumination entertainment should end the series here unless their studio is struggling behind the scenes. Seriously, I don't want Despicable Me to be another Ice age!! 😮💨😮💨
Minions 3 is set for release in 2027
God damn it!!
@@RoseAihimegbe Let's just hope that they don't replace Gru with Harvey Weinstein.
I think the series needs to be willing to get "boring."
As in, focus more on the story with a few cast of characters while putting the comic relief characters on the sidelines. No need to go hyperactive, wacky, and bizarre all the time.
In fact, I'd dig a TV series where Gru works with his old partners in crime (back when he was about to be part of a new wave of villains) to stop a threat only he and his friends know.
And I call it Gruicide Squad.
I was wondering when you were gonna talk about Double Life. Everybody agrees that this a diss towards Drake.
Yeah, it really did kind of feel like the main plot worsen the potential of the film. Like, they really should have emphasize how much of a threat the main bad guy really is because if I have to be honest, it really didn't feel like he was so much of a threat that they needed to be in witness's protection. I'm not sure if it's just me, but that's how I felt.
Which movies is better migration or Despicable Me 4
Will Ferrell didn't return for the series. Keith Ferguson took his place
Yeah, I only watched this movie because I at least enjoyed the first 2 (I skipped the third). At least the trailers were funny, but most of the quick jokes were spoiled in those. The others within the film itself were pretty good & it kept me engaged with the film. Too bad it was so short. It could've been a bit longer... like 10-15 mins more.
However, I find it odd that even though time has literally passed in the main series, the girls really haven't aged up at all. That's my main bother with the whole franchise. What has it been, like at least 2 or 3 years in-universe? Heck, Gru & Lucy have a kid together now (which is one of those years right there... and is also just so odd to think about), so the girls SHOULD be at least a bit older, mentally, emotionally AND physically. It would definitely be an interesting film if they became a focal point... or if one of them chose to follow the villain path like their adoptive dad... and I'm not gonna lie, I'd watch the HECK outta that. (Also, yes: I know someone for the films said something about how they aren't aging them up ever, but that's the biggest waste of plot potential if this series continues.)
