Animated comedy featuring the voice of Sandra Bullock. The film charts the history of the diminutive yellow sidekicks as they seek to serve the biggest villains around - everyone from Dracula to Napoleon, all the way up to their introduction to Gru, their evil leader in Despicable Me.
Despicable Me's lovable yellow sidekicks get their own movie in this prequel that sends the intrepid trio of Kevin, Stuart and Bob to 1960s London in search of a truly evil leader. That's about it with regard to plot, but there's plenty of fun to be had from the charmingly stupid critters as they get themselves into various comedy scrapes. Of the new additions to the cast, Sandra Bullock throws herself into voicing maniacally insecure villain Scarlett Overkill, while Jon Hamm gets some of the biggest laughs as her husband sidekick. With its rapid-fire succession of gags and pratfalls, Minions feels like a Three Stooges movie for the under-tens.
