I am by far not a Steve Carell fan, but I am learning to love his movies. I liked Evan Almighty and 40 Year Old Virgin, they were pretty funny. Unfortunately, and I am probably in the minority, I never could get into The Office.
Anyway, I loved this movie. There aren't any parts of this movie I didn't like. I thought the animation was awesome. The script was great. The voice overs were exceptional.
The best part of the whole movie is... the minions. How could you not love these guys? I thought it was hilarious when the minion who floated out of the skylight kept showing back up. Or the three that went to the store dressed as a mother, father and baby to get a unicorn for Agnes (Elsie Fisher).
My favorite scene of the whole movie has to be when Gru (Steve Carell) gets talked into stopping at the amusement park. I couldn't stop laughing. The best part of that whole scene is when the three girls are trying to knock over the spaceship, but can't. The Carnival Barker (Jack McBrayer) makes condescending comments about how they can't knock over the ship. Gru takes it upon himself to win the top prize... a unicorn bigger than Agnes. Gru pulls out what I can only describe as a laser pulse cannon and fires at the spaceship. He basically disintegrates the whole booth and says, "Knocked Oooover!" Awesome!
I can't even pick any other scene I liked because I liked them all. Well, I didn't like the end. You know where the credits start rolling and you have to get out of the seat or turn off the DVD player. That was my least favorite part of the whole movie.
I give this 10 out of 10 stars.
