Despicable Me 2 stands as Universal’s second-highest grossing film of all time, behind Jurassic Park earning $916 million worldwide!

It’s those adorable minions that have catapulted this animated comedy to break records, I say!

While Gru (Steve Carell) is adjusting to his family life as an ex-supervillain and making jams and jellies, a secret Arctic laboratory is stolen. The Anti-Villain League decides it needs Gru to join forces with AVL agent, Lucy Wilde (Kristin Wiig). Their prime suspect is the presumed dead supervillain, El Macho (Benjamin Bratt), who’s teenaged son seems to be smitten with Gru’s daughter Margo. At the same time, Gru is really starting to like Lucy. But what about the minions?!?

My kids and I loved the sequel and shared many laughs watching Despicable Me 2 together. I always enjoy what the supporting characters bring to the film – I had no idea El Macho’s voice is that of Benjamin Bratt! The relationship between Lucy and Dru is also adorable to watch. But of course the minions steal the show!
