Minions: The Rise of Gru | Ratings & Reviews

"At 88 minutes, Minions: The Rise of Gru struggles to find enough story to encompass its run time..."

San Francisco ChronicleSan Francisco Chronicle

"This fitfully funny family entertainment is what Goldmember was to the original Austin Powers... fun, but ultimately fairly forgettable."

StuffStuff

"It’s by no means horrendous or offensive, but it’s just a chronic bore..."

Little White LiesLittle White Lies

"Despicable Me has always shone with its wordplay and background gags and Rise of Gru is no different."

TVNZTVNZ

"87 minutes of pure chaos, a hallucinatory, cacophonous fever dream of nonsensical subplots and Minion gibberish."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"This entry is the most frenetic and action-packed of the bunch."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"This heist bonanza switches from storyline to storyline faster than a gaggle of whack-a-moles."

ColliderCollider

"Ultimately, The Rise Of Gru exerts a negligible impact on the Minions’ canonical journey."

A.V. ClubA.V. Club

"It’s a lively return to form for the franchise."

South China Morning PostSouth China Morning Post

"It should be fun... but the action is so loud and so relentless that the Minions’ quieter charms are left in the shade."

Sydney Morning HeraldSydney Morning Herald

"An unexpected treat, and by far the series' punchiest and most polished entry yet."

The TelegraphThe Telegraph

"The plot is perfunctory and it runs on the faintest of fumes..."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"Like the Minions, this instalment is barely distinguishable from any of the others, but it’s easy to be won over by its nutty joy and enthusiasm."

Empire MagazineEmpire Magazine

"Where the film really shines is in how it takes Bruce Lee and Blaxploitation movies and wraps them around a Minions story."

Slash FilmSlash Film

"Audiences know what to expect, and Illumination delivers, offering another feel-good dose of bad behaviour."

VarietyVariety

"Ultimately... the madcap elements of the Minion repertoire still deliver the playful escapism that the series is known for."
