Movie of the Week: Minions

[jacey]

The minions, having evolved to serve supervillains, can't find one bad enough, at least, not one that survives for long, so after falling into terminal depression, hiding out in an ice cave for a couple of centuries, minons, Kevin, Stewart and Bob set off to find the perfect supervillain, which they do, eventually, after adventures trying to steal the crown jewels. The best jokes are in the trailer, but even so it's a sweet movie for an otherwise dull Monday afternoon

The name always makes me think of a certain village on Bodmin Moor! :o)

I actually saw this last Friday with my daughter and granddaughter and I thought it was a fun film to take an eight-year-old granddaughter to. She definitely enjoyed it and there was enough to amuse this adult anyway. I couldn't help admiring the animation and I loved Bob's pet rat. It's not often that rats get a sympathetic role. :)

Based on the trailer, I don't thinks it's a kids movie.

There were certainly plenty of kids enjoying it when I was there, and nothing that most kids would not enjoy.
