Despicable Me (2010)

I liked this. I thought the humor was encouragingly bold and that the story was pleasantly imaginative yet simple.

Not really a movie, however, with any type of depth to the characters. Some questionable portrayal of racial (and other) stereotypes, though not enough to incur my wrath, just enough to raise an eyebrow here and there.

Overall—pretty good. Not the best children’s entertainment, not the worst. Props for a lot of humor that was intended for the grown-ups in the audience balanced with tons of silliness for the kids (and me... and you!) to enjoy.
