The sequel to Despicable Me 2 (2013), the third main series installment, and the fourth installment overall in the Despicable Me franchise, it was produced by Illumination and distributed by Universal Pictures. Naturally, there is mild potty humor and lots of cartoon battles, including self-inflating bubblegum and a giant action figure attacking Hollywood.Despicable Me 3 is a 2017 American computer-animated comedy film directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda, co-directed by production and character designer Eric Guillon, and produced by Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy, from a screenplay written by the writing team of Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio. Lucy is a fun, strong and tenderhearted wife and mom this unconventional family is powerful, and the three little girls are the anchor to all of life’s meaning. He chooses the right path, and we are the beneficiaries. In a lighthearted way, the story lets us in on internal struggles Gru must face, and we can celebrate his triumph over temptation in favor of his deep love and family loyalty. We still get a nice dose of the minions and their minion-italianish, and one of the most delightful segments in the story is their domination in prison-to the music of Pharrell’s Freedom. The story introduces us to Gru’s twin brother, a particular challenge to Gru’s newly turned-over crime-free life.

Our favorite villain-turned-anti-villain-agent Gru and his very capable wife Lucy show us their unique brand of parenting and their delightful love for adventure. Carrell, Wiig and company take us on a joyful, slapstick-charged ride through a story that celebrates family as much as we do. This movie is packed with academy award winners, and that’s part of what makes it so much fun.
