A highly unusual premise in the first film made this an awaited sequel. The team gives us more entertainment, more comic situations and more sub plots in a faster more dramatic story. Yes the first one was path breaking, but here they stuck to the safer ‘worldly’ realm.

The highlight of the film, are without a doubt, the Minions. In the last film they were the supporting cast but here they are pretty much the strength of the ensemble of characters. Gru and his girls, Dr. Nefario, Lucy and the others take us on a ‘whodunnit’ tale with comedy at every corner.

Enjoy the humour that needs no words and see something which is as far from ‘despicable’ as can be!

3.5/5
