Despicable Me (2010)

★★★★1/2

Gru is a bad guy, a villain… but the real question is: is he a bad guy? Well, in order to accomplish his lifetime dream of stealing the moon he must first obtain a shrink-ray that happens to be in the hands of a younger villain known as Vector, who stole it from him. Now, in order to get that shrink-ray he must adopt three young girls to distract Vector while he steals it back but after getting the shrink-ray, Gru begins to realize that he actually likes being with these girls. Now he must choose between stealing the moon and being the greatest villain of all time or being the greatest dad of all time. This warm, hysterical and pretty lovable animated movie is the only film that has a replay value equal to that of Toy Story 3. Everything about it made me feel happy, made me feel sad and made me laugh. The voice casting was ingenious and some of the voice actors are hardly even noticeable. I say, this is one of the best non Pixar movies that I have seen in the past 10 or so years.
