Watch Despicable Me 2 For Free

I love this movie so much

Let's be realistic.

Don't Believe the Hype

Absolutely brilliant

Gru (voiced by Steve Carell) is back. Retired from being a full-time evil villain to care for his adopted children he now dedicates his spare time to Jam. Unfortunately the world is not ready to forget him, he's hired by the Anti Villain League to investigate the disappearance of an arctic lab. Together with Agent Lucy Wilde (Kristen Wiig) on the investigation trail it looks likely that El Macho is behind the crime - and he's supposed to be dead. Evidently he's not dead and to make matter's worse, El Macho's son is taking a fancy to Gru's eldest adopted daughter, Margo. With his hands full he doesn't notice the slow disappearance of his trusted Minions. Gru really has to up his game and gadgets to resolve so many situations.The sequel to Despicable Me is another charming film, I was worried that the first film may just be a fluke and any sequel would be a poorly milked clone. This is not the case; the film stands up on its own merit and is amusing for all the family. Given the choice I prefer the first film because it gave us something fairly new in its characters, plot and set-up. However this is by no means a failure of a film just because it's got familiar characters in it, there has been growth and development - which is more than some blockbuster films have. It's colourful and creative, beautiful to look at, has action and humour in the right places too. Absolutely worth a watch whether you are seeing this film with, or without having seen the first film - Enjoy 7 out of 10.

Some sequels don't have the charm that their predecessors had. If anything, most of them fall apart and mostly lead to a sequel that really don't make any impact to the story as well as not evolving its characters and or story. Luckily, "Despicable Me 2" is not one of those sequels. This is a film that carries the same charm and humor the first film had back in 2010, but gives us bigger laughs, funny new characters and also evolves the older characters which is something a good sequel should do. Want to know why it works? Well, here's a little brief synopsis which I'll try not to spoil as the trailers weren't exactly that revealing.Some time after the first film, Gru (Steve Carell) has been living a new happy life after he gave up being a super villain and instead became a father to Margo, Edith and Agnes (Miranda Cosgrove, Dana Gaier and Elsie Fisher). Although he is a great father, he has been unsuccessful to do anything new as he even attempts to create new jams that leads to some humorous moments. Then he is recruited by agents, and partnered with one named Lucy (Kristen Wiig), who work for a secret organization known as the Anti-Villain League, an agency that tries to hunt down and eliminate top super villains. Hoping for something to do to impress the girls, Gru accepts the offer and is put on a big case involving a toxic serum while not realizing that his Minions are mysteriously vanishing as part of a master villains plan. That's all I'm going to give you guys because I think you need to see the film to figure out where it will go.The thing that works best about this movie is that it continues the story and not repeats it. It also does the same to the joke which Illumination gives us newer and fresher content and not the humorous moments of the first movie. Trust me when I say that some of the scenes are so hilarious that I was laughing so hard, I sometimes had to constantly catch my breath. Not only are the jokes made better, but the characters are also improved as well, particularly Gru. The reason why is because he fully stands by his word and saying he won't return to evil and actually does certain scenes that are different from the first movie notably scenes involving Margo and a boy she has a crush on. The new characters are also a lot of fun as well. Lucy might be my favorite character in the movie. I really liked the funny and quirky personality she had which was brilliant brought to life thanks to Kristen Wiig's fantastic performance. However, one thing I'm pretty pleased at with the film is actually not in the film itself, but rather the marketing. It was very clever by not showing the villain and keeping certain story elements to a minimum which allowed us to guess where the story would be going. I was very pleased by this desision. As far as problems go, I could have used a little more screen time with Agnes and Edith. Although both characters got some laughs and had a considerable amount of screen time, I didn't think they got enough."Despicable Me 2" is easily one of the funniest animated sequels I've seen in a while. It steps up what made the first film great while also adding some new elements that make it stand out as a good sequel. I can easily say that this was a great sequel I've been waiting for and I hope I can get more in the future.

Increasing the Gru family members! Its awesome sequel in every way. But it can't bit the first one still. Minions got strong in screens throughout the movie. Girls are cute in this one also. The villain is kinda weak and not funny after all. Steve Carell will got your nerves! Its enjoyable movie for all ages.

Having landed father Gru in the first movie, Margo, Edith and Agnes are hot on the trail of hooking him up with a potential Mom. This picture also added more Minions to the mix for which I was grateful, those little cornballs are very funny with their own brand of minionese. When not saving the world or freeing Margo from the clutches of the smooth Antonio, son of El Macho, Gru is an absolute sketch attempting to make that first phone call date with Lucy, the gal he has eyes for. What shy guy can't relate to Gru's nervous trepidation trying to come up with the right words? Hilarious. Well, it all works out, with the Minions getting their share of quality time, even if they had to go purple for a while. It's a fun film that kids of all ages should enjoy.
