.
Kiwi Jemaine Clement joins his new mate Steve Carell lending his voice to Despicable Me, but good luck picking a Kiwi accent out of these little yellow minions.
Gru is a grand master criminal, but younger and better connected villains are nipping at his heels.
Time to hatch a grand master plan to steal the moon.
Three adorable little orphans could stand in the way of that plan, or they could open the door to all sorts of success.
The film is a delight, the characters are fresh and endearing, and the 3D is actually worth paying for for a change.
I loved it – and make sure you stay for the credits.
Four and a half stars.
