"Despicable Me 2" Review

"Despicable Me 2" review 

This past weekend I made it out to the theaters with my kiddos to check out that latest "Despicable Me" movie. This is the sequel to the first "Despicable Me" film that came out back in 2010. Many of the characters from the first film are back in this film including the main character Gru who is voiced by Steve Carell and those adorable minions. This story picks up where the first one left off with Gru becoming the father to the three little girls he met and fell in love with in the first movie, Margo, Edith, and Agnes. He has retired from being a villain to focus on being a good parent to the girls though is offered an undercover job to catch villains. Even though he is hesitant he decides to take the job. While working undercover he gets to work with Lucy who is also an undercover agent and is played by Kristen Wiig. Even though Steve and Kristen are just doing the voices they still are hilarious as these characters. The story is full of heart and is adorable with lots of laughs thrown in there as well. If you have kids I recommend seeing this movie for sure. It is a film that the whole family can enjoy. Check out the trailer here.
