KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

marcotheconqueror I think movies like this are very particular to your type of humor, and (I'm not sure if I should say this but) I really thought it was funny. It was more complex than a simple good-guy bad guy plot, not because of the plot itself, but because of the elements and settings of the movie. It moves around the world and while of course there are going to be stupid parts, if you come in expecting a movie about little yellow guys, the nice touches on the parts of the minions traveling through New York in the 1960s and the beginning with the minions evolving from organisms go a long way. I didn't care that much about the evil lady whatever her name was, but I guess that's just me.

NYCDREAM500 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.

gauravthevideogameboss Illumination animation has done it again by adding a spin-off movie despicable me and adding a movie with only minions and you well get minions.I hate the minions movie because the casting for the movie was sub-par I mean they had a narrator for 6 minutes or less for absolutely no reason as were the movie can be told through visuals and my god the animation for this movie was terrible but take this for example, I draw a simple face it looks cute but then I start adding more details to it to make it look like something hideous.The minions movie has a tad bit of eccentric comedy and there are two terms of comedy: Surrealist comedy and silent comedy and there were two more animated movies on 2015 which was SpongeBob Squarepants Sponge out of Water and Shaun the Sheep the movie.Let's start with the SpongeBob movie, it is a live action movie and it was pretty clever for having Antonio Banderas as the evil pirate and so onethen came the Shaun the sheep the movie however it is told through visuals this means that no one talks during this movie other than gibberish which is also funny.But when minions try to do this it is not funny anymore it is just boring and stupid. So here's the plot, the minions are in a search for a master(villain) and one becomes the king of England another one Jacuzzis with two fire hydrants just to make an innuendo for some weird reason, the plot always falls into plot twist and they are not even consistent.And on that year they discouraged kids to watch the lego movie even though it shows good morals and responsibility, they want to dumb them out by watching a minions movie how stupid is that

Tweekums This standalone film follows the Minions, who were first seen in 'Despicable Me'. We see how they have been around since the time of the dinosaurs, always trying to find the most evil beings to serve… and then accidentally kill! Eventually they can find nobody to serve and as the centuries pass they fall into a depression. One day Minion Kevin decides to do something about it; he, along with sidekicks Stuart and Bob set off to find a new evil master to serve. They find themselves in New York in 1968; there they hear that Villain-con is taking place in Orlando. They make their way there and find themselves working for top villain Scarlet Overkill. She has plans to take over England; the first stage is to get the Minions to steal the crown… not surprisingly things don't go quite as Scarlet hoped and then the Minions are in her sights.The little yellow minions were one of the highlights of the' Despicable Me' films so it isn't a surprise that they got their own film. The main story isn't particularly original but that isn't too much of a problem as it is just an excuse to put the minions in a variety of amusing situations where all their attempts to help their new mistress lead her to think they are actually working against her. Most of these set pieces are pretty funny in a way that should amuse children of all ages and adults who enjoy slapstick silliness. The '60s setting provides a good excuse to incorporate music of the era; sometimes sung in the minions' gibberish! The story ends nicely in a way that links into 'Despicable Me'. The animation is impressive with good character designs and detailed backgrounds. Overall I'd say this was a lot of fun and would recommend it even if it isn't quite up to the quality of 'Despicable Me'… it is very silly but it is also a lot of fun.
