Despicable Me (2010)
8/10
7.8 at IMDb ... ? Wow.
27 July 2010
While I agree with the rating, I'm sure I got there via other means. I have to ask if this is a fair rating of the movie, or if this film garnered a 7.8/10 due to flaccid choices at the box office? Either way, this is a deserving summer sleeper hit, which will find its way into my collection.

Morals and life's lessons set aside, the movie is fun, witty, sweet, amusing, and entertains while still managing to maintain a coherent story. The lessons are pretty standard, the morals are slippery, and the animation is pretty decent, but the overall effect is greater than the individual components. No slick production style, just cute, cute, cute, which would normally have me hurling into the nearest trash receptacle but herein, it works.

We actually laughed through 90% of this film, which is pretty amazing for us.

Loved it.

It rates a 7.7/10 from...
