I was hesitant to watch Despicable Me 2, since the first one was a bit off and a bit lacking for my taste. To be honest this was not in my movie list to watch in a cinema.
I went to this movie without any expectations at all. And usually when I see a movie without any expectations, I enjoy it and praise it afterwards (like Argo).
How was the Visuals?
Visuals are very good. Better than the 1st movie. I watch the digital version, and it was very good. I liked the way the color and visuals they used all thru out the movie. It was consistent. The faces of the kids have unique distinct features.
Explosions, effects and objects are good and visually appealing to the eyes. Visuals makes the movie come alive, I won't mind watching it again at home.
How was the Story?
Story is very good. Unlike the first movie, where I was lost on how funny would it be to be evil. The second one focused on Gru, his kids and his love life. Of course, the minions are always in the picture, that's what makes this movie more fun, than only with Gru and family. I liked the simple story and fun characters they created. None of those obnoxious character like in the first movie. Total fun, and very good written story.
How was it Overall?
Overall the movie is great. I give it a 5 out of 5 stars. Yes, it is that good. I was very tired and sleepy when we watched this movie. And I was awake laughing the whole time during the run of the movie. There was not a dull moment, in the movie. I would recommend it for the whole family, especially a family with a good sense of humor. It's on it's last week in Philippine cinemas, since currently there is another animated movie showing, Turbo.
