*Despicable Me* is TOO GOOD!! | First Time Watching | (reaction/commentary/review) 

The Minions’ language is a combination of different languages like French, English, Spanish, Hindi, and Korean

11:37 "how is everyone fooled that that the pyramid's not even there?" me having never noticed it despite having watched the movie multiple times: 👁️👄👁️

You reacted exactly like Gru during the bogey robot scene. I couldn’t stop laughing 🤣 Love your reactions to these films

One thing that I cant get through my head no matter how many times Ive seen this: Grus mom is voiced by Mary Poppins herself, Julie Andrews

The Despicable Me movies series is the definition of "Dad strength hits different"😌

When Gru went to adopt the girls, he said to Miss Hattie that her face looks "como un burro" Como un burro means like a donkey That's why she didn't like it when she looked up the meaning in the Spanish dictionary.

The first time we see Ms. Hattie, why do I always think, "We found the real villain."

15:58 _Edith: "It poked a hole in my juice box."_ *Russell from Up:* Whew. I thought you were dead!

One thing I admire about this movie is that the celebrity voice cast are actually doing different funny voices that fit the character instead of most animated movies these days.

Margo’s heasitation to leap always has me in tears “ you gave us away “ like the abandoned child syndrome is so real . Makes me think Margo has a deeper backstory than the other two

If you haven't seen Megamind, you should definitely check it out. It came out 5 months after Despicable Me and was overshadowed by it and interpreted by viewers as copying the "protagonist is a villain" idea, in spite of the fact that Megamind's plot was ironed out well before Despicable Me was released. That's why it isn't better known. But it is hilarious.

My meme for *I sit on the toilet* Builders of the Titanic: Now the rest of the plan is simple: 1. We build the Titanic 🛠 2. We let passengers board the Titanic 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 3. We sail out to sea on the Titanic 🚢 4. We get hit by a GIANT iceberg 🧊 and we all perish 🪦💀 -wai-WHAT? 😳

4:26: I was not expecting this villain to be so organized! That's how you get ahead in villainy! You be organised, so no-one can get one over on you!

“oh god he’s a leash kid” 😂😂😭 dyingggg as a ex leash kid 😭

Good to see you’re reacting to the first _Despicable Me_ film and for Illumination’s debut animated film it’s easily one of their best. I really enjoy Gru’s evolution in the film that he originally wanted to steal the moon to become the greatest villain once again and decided to hire the girls just for his own selfish reasons. Eventually Gru starts to warm up to the orphaned girls and eventually become their adoptive father. Looking forward to the rest of the _Despicable Me/Minions_ films and apparently it’s worth noting if you notice the animation quality and frame rate of the first film to the later Despicable Me/Minions sequels it’s very noticeable considering the first film had a $69 million budget while the Despicable Me sequels/spin-offs had a $76-$85 million budget hence the movement and texture of the first movie being more like a direct-to-video or a CG TV series quality.

11:38 It's the first time I've noticed the pyramid 💀👍🏾

33:41 I don't know if you caught the meaning there or not. Gru's not the one that called; Nefario is. "If you don't do something about it, then I will." Yes, Gru packed them up and put them in the car, and that was a cruel thing to do. No arguments here. But Nefario was the catalyst for Hattie showing up. Also, for your questions on why these characters are doing these terrible things throughout the movie (and I love the fact that you are un-jaded enough to keep asking the question...), there is a very simple answer: They're villains. If they want something, they take it. If someone is in their way, they remove them. If something interferes with their plans, the obstruction is dealt with. Swiftly. This is why Gru's arc is so compelling, and why we love a reformed villain so much. They go from cold and unfeeling and remorseless...to someone we could see ourselves sitting and sharing a meal with. The become human, for lack of a better word. They gain empathy and understanding and self-awareness, learning that how they have acted to that point is wrong, *and they strive to do better.*

The way you respond to children and parenting in movies is so sweet. If you ever have children, they will be so lucky to have you as a father! As for me, having grown up with an emotionally abusive parent, watching your reactions to movies adressing family dynamics has been really healing in a way and it helps a lot to get your point of view on the presented situations, as I am aware mine can be quite skewed by my experiences.

HOW HAVE YOU NOT WATCHED THIS YET?

You know what I realised about Despicable Me? It's the "Cold career woman gets stuck with an annoying child and realises she actually wants to be a mother" trope, but flipped so its about a supervillain being reformed by love and becoming a single dad.

Thanks for uploading this, i was having a BAD BAD day...

you should make merch that says "shivers mate" lol

The movie (edit: movie, not franchise!) is amazing in general but the voice acting is impeccable. I don’t know how much they edited them but almost every actor completely disappears into their character and sounds really convincing Also, it’s one of the rare movies that makes me really enjoy the ridiculous amount of "side quests" as you called them. All of the side characters are entertaining yet they don’t take away from the story nor do they make me feel like they should have made the side story the main one

You’re a new comfort channel for me! 😄 Love hanging out and watching old favorites, it’s the nostalgia and good vibes I need after a hard day

When Gru gets angry he unleashes his ultra insitinct.

26:01 i love agnes😂. Love how gru became like a protective dad

You don’t know how much joy your reactions bring to a boring day of work!

I remember a trailer from this. "Just because he's a bad guy, doesn't mean he's a "bad guy"." 😆 Steve Carell does a good job as usual.

The first Despicable Me is really good but I can’t say for the others. But I do like the second one as well.

I must say, this is one of your Top 10 reaction moments. Your face at 16:44 was priceless. I must have seen it a dozen times and it still gets me every time. And the way you connected to the character at 16:56 was spot on! Thank you !!!

"I'll stuff you all in the crust" 😂🍕

Fun fact: Ceo of Illumination animation studio of the movies such as the Despicable me franchise, sing, secrets life of pets and many others. Christhoper Meleandre is the same person who was a Executive producer of first Blue Sky studio movies! Like ice age, robots, ice age 2 and horton hears a who!

the fact that this is illumination's first project

thanks for being so wholesome and bringing a little happiness to my day. love you!

This movie is 100% your vibe I can’t believe you had seen it yet

16:57 Perfect template for a Meme😂

2:22 😂yeah ,after you said aww thats so nice,i was like just wait for it, 2:23 but hey the boy stopped crying

HIGHLY recommend "Over The Hedge"

You’ve got to watch The Minion Movie! It’s their origin story and works as a standalone as well, so funny. The second Despicable Me is also very good and we see a lot more of the kids’ characters.

“Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me...”

It's so fluffy!! Lol best part of the movie 🤣

The whole Bank of Evil plotline becomes very salient when you remember the bank crashed just two years before this movie came out.

hahaha you giggle at his parenting. But I assure you it is like this. and MORE. non stop question asking, getting into anything, mocking the parent, back talking, high energy at bedtime, having a million and a half excuses every night on why they cant sleep(and they use them allll), And so much more. Also Dont forget. " I need more water, I gotta get another hug, I gotta go pee, I have a pain in my eye, and so on and son forth for 2 hours. so Groo is doing great lol and reading stories every night is a thing too.

I watched this for Father’s Day, best father/daughter film ever!! 🥰

14:38 dont know why that made me laugh so hard when you said dudes breaking hearts everywhere .... I love his character

I know I've given you a lot of recommendations in the past, but I have another one: Horton Hears a Who!

"You Should Be Dancin'" was the song I performed to in 5th grade talent show...such an awesome song from Saturday Night Fever. "What you doin' with your rhythm tonight?...You should be dancin', yeah!"

Cinema Therapy actually just did a villain therapy on Gru from this movie. It's a really interesting look at his character. But yeah... Gru is pretty awesome as a character, and I'm so glad they didn't pull back on his early-movie villainy. In any event, Illumination actually does a lot of good work. I highly recommend looking into Sing and Sing 2. They may not come across as much, but they are honestly amazing stories!

When u said "Coco couch" my baby brother started up Cocomelon and thats all i could hear u say🤣

"Is this Looney Toons?" Yep, pretty much.

I was looking forward to this reaction! It will be incredible ❤

Not every animation that came out from these guys was a winner, but this one sure was.

"I didn't know there was a return policy for orphans" that's a wild sentence

My ranking of the franchise 1. Despicable Me 2 2. Rise of Gru 3. Despicable Me 4. Despicable Me 3 5. Minions

23:00 One of my favorite gags in the entire movie.

The lady over the orphanage is the true villain in this movie.

I LOVE your reaction to this. I literally screamed at your reaction to the boogie robots. 😂 you and Gru. you made my evening. 😊

Theres an interview i forgot what talk show but Steve Carrel actually shows up dressed as gru with big ass nose and all 😂

I have some recommendations for movies for you to watch eventually! Series: The Big Bang Theory Monk Animated: An American Tail Balto Land Before Time 101 Dalmatians (original and remake) Live action: Shiloh (dog movie) Air Bud Secondhand Lions

Amazing movie! Personally one of my childhood favourites. Used to watch these almost every day LMAO. Glad you enjoyed it and I cant wait to see your reaction to the sequels ☺

I remember the opening scene in Egypt was one of the teasers for this film, and I swear it was being shown, like, two years before the movie came out.

6:33 yeah she is totally exploring them for free labor😂 I like Despicable me 1 had great dark humor for families nothing too awful just rude and mean. And the following movies are lacking that edge the first movie had

AMAZING REACTION!!! I love your videos 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I’ve never seen this movie because I get scared of watching movies that I haven’t seen before but you have helped me open my eyes to a lot of movies!! 😁 thank you ❤️

19:15 It is thought that the minion singing Copacabana is a reference to Friends! He has the circular Rachel hair and wears a pink dress which is what Rachel wears to Mindy's wedding and sings Copacabana.

7:50 your reactions are always the best 😂

6:56 the VA for Gru's mother is none other than Julie Andrews aka Mary Poppins 😊❤

Such a fun reaction! My favorite moment is your reaction to the Boogie robots matching perfectly with Gru 😂 Like someone in the comments have mentioned, you should react to the Minions movie. Also if you haven't already, I recommend reacting to the Overwatch animated shorts! There should be updated playlists on RU-vid in chronological order. Definitely worth checking out.

I love your reactions so much. It’s like watching a movie with some guy I don’t know but it’s awesome

I really like everything about this movie! The character development, the character appeal, the story, even the minions! This is easily Illumination's best movie in terms of storytelling.

You need to react to SURFS UP

I love your animation reactions. So wholesome and sweet.

Love this movie, and im enjoying it watching movies "with you" more and more :D And its kinda foreshadowed that Gru is a good Dad since he cares so much about every single minion and even knowing everyones name from the very beginning of the film :)

These movies are genuinely good, they’re great fun to watch!!

Love your vids bro, keep up the good work ❤

its always so fun to watch your reactions

Day 15 of asking coca couch to watch the bad guys.

i love your videos! i'm not sure if anyone else said this or if it's right, but when i saw this as a kid, i thought it was dr. nefario that called up the orphanage to have the girls return, which made me really sad! i don't really like a lot of illumination films, but i forgot how special this one was to me. it used to be my dad and i's favorite movie! just seeing the clips of gru reminds me so much of my dad. i appreciate you reacting to this movie!

If nobody else said this yet, gur's mom is mary poppins (julia andrews)

YOU ARRIVED IN GRUUUUUUU, HELL YEAAAHHH

30:45 Dude! Gru stole Starry Night. . .

I highly recommend Sing and Sing 2 from Illumination!! I think you'd really enjoy them. 💕💕

Love your videos and hope you have a great day!

Okay, but you need to watch minions!! You will adore Bob 🤣😍

Hey, I recently discovered your channel and the way you genuinely react to the movies, particularly Disney classics, made me subscribe! It's quite interesting to see how an adult reacts for the first time to the movies that were part of many of our childhoods! I also love how you are very observant in small details that even I didn't notice before, even though I've seen these movies so many times. I have some recommendations, if you're interested, of some of my favorite movies that you might not have seen yet: Brother Bear (prepare your heart for this one lol), Howl's Moving Castle, El Dorado (one of the best), Lion King 2 (personally I love this one even more than the first movie) Pocahontas, Lady and the Tramp (if you love dogs, prepare your heart for this one too lol), Bambi. Hope you like any of these and keep being who you are 😊

Gosh, watching movies with this guy is sweetly overwhelming! >

You should watch A silent voice!

Dam dude, ngl got swamped by life and forgot to come back to watch the videos. But happy to see that the channel popped off. 👍

16:44 your face was hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂

The sheet anger at "a dozen boogie robots" xD

I've been watching Cocoa Couch since you've reacted to ATLA and now you're watching one of my favorite franchises! Despicable Me and Minions is fantastic. I want to recommend a show called A Series of Unfortunate Events if you're looking to add something to your list. It's a grim but hilarious tale based off a series of books that it adapts pretty well.

I love Despicable Me and I‘m really happy to see you react to it :D!

1 minute since upload! My first time being so early! Looking forward to watching amazing reaction to the amazing movie!

This movie is so despicably hilarious. The minions are so funny. I love the casts and Pharrell Williams songs, especially memorable moments 🎵🎵🎵🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣

Please react to Wreck-It Ralph. ❤ 🙏

Victor Is the coolest villain here

I’m so exited for u to watch this series!!

Please watch megamind next it's another great movie as well ! ❤

37:31 power of a dad saving their kids

24:53 my favorite line from her. I too love horses, unicorns and pagasus. I have a stuffed animal big unicorn one its named confetti cupcake to match its looks

After being away for 5 days at kidz kamp, seeing kids get to know more Jesus, I got home and found this. Yay! God is good all the time! I remember watching this on a laptop screen. 😂 So long ago. Thanks for this!
