Just perfect...
A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
A movie about minions, what can you expect, Can I just talk about the jokes In this film, 1 I found actually funny and another joke was like "Wow that's kinda neat".The music was meh with some good songs and the animation was alright, the story was horrible and so were the character developments, and the characters in general.Some things don't add up in the movie, like there is this chase scene and this guy uses some paintball looking weapon, when he could have use and basooka in the back of his car, or how the they just randomly say bob is the king when he pulled the sword from the stone and kick out queen Elizabeth II, horrible movie, doesn't have that many good parts, watch it just to take the piss
So I saw this film about a year ago and thought it would be fine but I was wrong. I don't think that this was good at all. Even though I don't like Despicable Me or Despicable Me 2, I had at least one laugh, but I was confused the whole film. It didn't make any sense and even though the spongebob movie doesn't make any sense it's so bad it's funny, but minions is just plain bad. It tries silent comedy like Shaun the Sheep movie, which you should definitely check out, but it has no good humour and uses obvious humour like fart poop jokes. To give the film credit, the England background was pretty good, but the bad outweighs the good by a long shot. I don't like the banana joke at all, it's so old now Illumination just stop it. The NY mall scene shouldn't have been included in this film, you could take it out and the loose plot would stay exactly the same. Minions are too simple of a design to look at. It literally looks like they settled with just a round rectangle and added goggles, eye(s), legs mouth and arms, that's it. When Scarlett becomes queen of England, people act like she's a dictator. You know the Prime minister exists so she can't just decide every law. Now I know that people would say this is unimportant, but you should add some realism a little bit in a film. When Kevin becomes giant I said what? Not only does this make zero sense but I was thinking why didn't they have this in the first act? The guard scene gives me a headache and the character designs make me ill. At the beginning, when Kevin doesn't want bob to come a minute bob feels nervous even though he wanted to come and Kevin encourages him to come. And somehow they go from the North Pole to NYC overnight. Spongebob movie is also makes no sense but it's suppose to make no sense, minions just falls off a 10000 metre cliff. Even though I'm no fan of Despicable Me, it's masterful compared to this garbage. See Early man, Shaun the Sheep, and other Aardman animation films that actually put effort into their films instead of illumination films that use celebrity actors and minions as bait to get money. Please don't see this, I'm going to see Minions 2 to see if it will be just as bad. Every credit I gave Minions which was small to begin with is gone. Again see Aardman Animation films that actually put effort into their films or even Pixar films.
This time Coffin got full time voice over, that's not praise able nor that's even good. He did impressive work! May be I like Minions for Coffin's voice. Sandra Bullock is also did a well job. From Universal's theme to Bob's crown handover to Scarlett, this was a fun ride in my life! Coffin-Balda and Lynch will really got your nerves. Narration is interesting. Music will mesmerize you.
Minions is a mediocre film. It has a decent plot, but the film completely wastes any potential it could've had. The problem I had with it is that the film revolves around a side character that was fun in small doses, but annoying in long ones. For example, the first Despicable Me film was a great flick. It had a good plot, good characters, and good writing. The minions were in it, but they were funny and only shown in short bits. However, here, they're on the screen all the time and the jokes with them aren't really all that funny. Overall, this film is great for kids, but adults may want to stray away from it.
