  • This was the weakest Despicable Me film by far, unfortunately. The minions were underutilized and didn't appear much in the movie other than in short gags. I had a lot of unanswered questions after the film ended since a lot of plot points were not wrapped up well. Some of the jokes felt like they were trying a little too hard to be relevant and modern. Overall, it lacked the charm and heart of the previous three movies.

The infamous (and kind-hearted) not-super villain Gru returns in Despicable Me 4, the fourth entry in the long-running movie series from Illumination Entertainment. The fourth film also sees the return of Gru's wife, Lucy, portrayed again by Kristin Wiig, and introduces their son.
