Quoted:
Saw it with my kids this weekend. Not good, and Steve Carell has jumped the shark. That is all. Why is it not good and how did he jump the shark? |

Ridiculously predictable story, poorly developed characters, trite dialogue. Carells' fake accent was terrible.

I saw it and we both thought it was funny in parts. No, I won't be buying or renting it though.
It was predictable. I wish I would have seen it in 3d just for that rollercoaster scene. |

It wasn't entirely bad, IMO. I expected much worse, given my general dislike of Steve Carell.
I liked the sign on the bank that said, "Bank of Evil ("Formerly Lehman Brothers")".

I thought it was OK. And, there aren't many kid movies that aren't utterly predictable.

I thought it was better than Toy Story 3, but my wife thinks I'm the real Gru and my opinion may be biased.

My 8 year old nephew saw that movie about a week ago, and said it was the funniest movie he has seen yet.
But then, he still thinks smelling peoples feet is funny. So take it all with a grain of salt. I know I'm not planning on watching it. |

Why is it not good and how did he jump the shark? When he made a TV show where ever week the premise was I'M A RETARD He's following down the Will Ferrell/Adam Sandler path, way too much saturation without the proper amount of hilarity to accompany it. |

Quoted: Ridiculously predictable story, poorly developed characters, trite dialogue. Carells' fake accent was terrible. It's a cartoon. On top of that, it's not a Pixar movie which means it won't be a major hit. Pixar owns the animated genre.

I must have missed the part of Steve Carrell's career where the character he played wasn't an awkward, likable, witty guy who overcomes the odds to triumph in the end. |

I laughed quite a bit at the 2D version, loved the minions.
I would not but the DVD but still enjoyed it, you could wait for it to go on Netflix. |
