It’s the second time I’ve seen this film but I still get the same feeling as I had the last time. Gru becomes a proactive dad and aspiring entrepreneur. Until he is recruited by the Anti-Villain League and is to participate on a mission that needs his expertise. There were too many elements that did not mesh well and the film it only had key scenes that made it worth watching but mostly you were just waiting for the scenes rather than watching the entire film.
Highlights of the film:
Agnes’ birthday party
Cupcake shop scene
Happy Mother’s Day
Excuses
Gru asks Lucy out on a date
