Today, July 10th, my wife and I went to see perhaps the best movie of the year. What was the movie?
Despicable Me. This movie was one we had decided we would see a year ago, because of the very cleaver ads that were running at the movie theatres, of course the face that they did a satire of the old opening to Alfred Hitchcock presents, in the ads had nothing to do with me wanting to see the movie.
This is an animated film where you forget that it is animated. The dialogue is clever, and very believable for the characters, and the movie moves at a rapid pace.
The hardest thing you will find, is not laughing. You will laugh more in this movie, than you have since Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase made "Foul Play" back in 1978.
The plot involves an old villain who wants to get in the good graces of the villain community, but most importantly, wants to impress his mother as a success. his name is Dr. Gru.
He goes up against a young upstart named Vector, who is slick and has stolen the Great Pyramid,
The two villains square off and in the process Gru ends up with three orphans, who are part of his master plan to... no not take over the world, but steal the moon.
To say more would ruin the fun of this movie. I give DESPICABLE ME 10 STARS,
Is it Alfred Hitchcock I see? No, it's Disposable Me...
The Minions
It's Vector, the super Villain???
