Despicable Me 4 Movie Review - It's Barely A Movie At All 

Regretfully took the family yesterday to this one and it was painful on the wallet and soul. The weird accent voices was the worst part for me, I was already annoyed with Gru's character going in and then they had to throw in Will Farrell and Sofia Vergara, man it was rough on the ears.

That wink in the intro, I know it's just for me... truly the only way I can achieve climax.

I really like this franchise and I haven't watched this new movie but they really love milking these kid franchises until there is nothing left. They're making a 5th Shrek and Toy Story movie. It's like damn, can anything just end anymore.

The Lego Batman Movie was a good example of "non-stop" but with some sense of plot and heart. This just sounds like a kiddie "entertainment" merch mobile.

I feel like you’re lowkey the hardest working RU-vid movie reviewer.

The first Minions film is funnier and smarter than the others in the series. I don't get why that isn't recognized.

I miss when this movie series had some heart..

Before even pressing play I COMPLETELY agree with you based on the "barely a movie" tag line

I haven’t seen a single one of these movies and never will unless the moon collapses.

You don't need to see a goat poop on the big screen.Wait for streaming.

Did anyone else think that the shots of the characters in Despicable Me 4 looked at little too close? Like, that the "camera" should have been farther away from the characters?

Exactly what happened to the creativity these days . They don’t care 🤷‍♀️ what the audience other people think plot doesn’t make sense 😢it’s sad 😔 unfortunately. Evil 😈 bad influence kids not the same like movies 🎥 used to be .

Sofia Vergara should stick to working for America's Got Talent instead of acting.

I loved this movie, but I'm a kid, AND I watched it in 3D.

This review is the closest I'll ever get to watching these movies

I've been sleeping second part, cash grab, disaster..unless you are 6.

Sofia Vergara purposely exaggerates her accent. I have known about her since the early 90s when she came out in an Univision tv show. Her accent isn’t that thick

I saw it. I liked it okay. It was just entertainment and fun in my opinion. I don't have mega high expectations here. Spoiler - There were a few adult jokes that made me laugh like when the villian was at the gas station, Gru couldn't get regular old fashioned milk, I Am To Sexy played as the smug father next door drove away, I am just saying there were a few jokes that hit me pretty good. IDK to me it is worth a see at a matinee price. Also the song during the last 5 minutes was really good. We left on a positive and bright note.

I have enjoyed this franchise in the past, but in this one it felt like they were more interested in doing a bunch of minion shorts and threw in a thin storyline for Gru to make it a feature length movie. I didn’t hate it, but I instantly forgot about it. Kids will love though, and I guess thats what matters.

thanks adam for bringing me back to sanity in this trying time of mine

What you started talking about at 3:58 happened to me as well. It's like I was completely zoned out and then suddenly came to. Reminds me of that experience you have when you're driving, suddenly arrive at your destination, yet don't recall how you got there.

A nice 100 dollar night out lolll

"Despicable Me 3" is a masterpiece compared to this one. I should have watched your review first and waited for it to show up on Peacock.

Straight up respect to Adam for taking one for all of us.

We have a small theatre in my town tix are 5$, popcorn candy and 2 drinks 15$. I thought the mega minions made zero sense and added nothing to the story.

Whatever one where they went back in time and Ballsac became the King of England was so stupid. That's where I checked out 😢

The fact Despicable Me 3 is getting newfound response shows you how bad this movie is.

Haven't seen it yet but I am sure you are right. I feel sorry for the kids, although they may not realize it, the industry feeds them with junk and not with quality. Missed chance since the Despicable Me series had potential, but again they screwed it.

I took my 9 yo to see this and I felt like I was watching ADHD To The Max: The Movie 😂 it was so colorful and vibrant; sensory overload

This was the first Despicable Me movie for which I struggled to find a redeeming quality. But analyzing this like it's supposed to have any depth as a film is pointless My kids couldn't have cared less about Maxime. He might as well have not been in the movie. The part they liked the most were the mega minions, which I think were a cool idea but they're in the movie for all of like 5 minutes. The entire subplot with the beauty salon and the supermarket chase should have just been cut. That was a lot of minutes that could have gone to telling a better If they wanted to tell a story about Gru and the baby coming together, then they should have had some growth there. Like, say, how the minions take care of the baby instead of Gru. Maybe the baby resents him for that and Gru realizes he needs to change and feed the baby himself. Something that would have had Gru learn something like he did in every other Despicable Me movie.

I've only seen the first.

While you dozed off and was entranced, a young child stuck gum in your hair.

Cash grab

While I personally enjoyed Inside Out 2 more, Despicable Me 4 got all the children's laughs for sure. It's just for a good time with the kids. I think this really might be the last Despicable Me with how they ended it.

You can't say "spoiler free review"' then break down legitimately every plot point lol.

Great review

While I DO like thees movies, I'm honestly in no rush to see this one. I'll wait until it's on Netflix like I did with the last minions movie.

with those minions movies it takes us up to what? 6 or 7 right?

If you watch Despicable Me 1 and then Despicable Me 4 it should be glaringly obvious how much Despicable Me 4 sucks in comparison. The Despicable Me movies have really fallen off with Despicable Me 4.

Despicable Me 4 felt cheap. I think I hate it. The other Despicable Me movies are better than it.

Maxime Le Mal is by far the worst Despicable Me villain. Lame!

Despicable Me 4 is one of the worst films of the year.

Despicable Me 4 sucks! Lame villain, too many plots that go nowhere, incohesive overall, and missed opportunities with the minions.

It’s a great movie

Despicable Me 4 does not deserve good word of mouth. It's a bad movie.

I liked it. You really come off as fake. Thought you should know.
