Since the beginning of existence, there were minions, tiny little yellow creatures, destined to serve an evil boss in his quest for power, fame and world domination. The only problem was that their bosses had quite some problems staying alive under their supervision. Soon after they settle down by themselves, they realize that their lives are empty without a purpose, so three brave but also foolish minions set out to an evil villain convention in order to find their new master.It's a prequel to the "Despicable Me" movie which tells the story of the minions and how they ended up serving Gru. As you would expect, all their actions are meant to induce laughter and for a while, they succeed. Unfortunately, it all gets mediocre and used up, a good laugh only rarely comes up. It's plot doesn't come in handy either, being unable to do something than can change something in the movie's rhythm.Frankly, I was expecting tons of laughter and a good plot but I got a bit disappointed by the final result.

They way females are depicted is insulting. Why isn't it okay to look like a nerd? Is it better to be practically blind than wear glasses? And the way she tried to camouflage her intellect by saying stupid stuff is dumb. It's quite offending actuallyAll the food stuff was just plain gross. Normally I like animated movies and silly ones. But this one was stupid and gross

It's such a fun and creative concept, who wouldn't want to see delicious food falling from the sky. Seems nice in theory but I'm sure it would be pretty sticky and smell quite bad.Because it's so imaginative it makes up for the one-dimensional characters. They may not have a lot of personality but they certainly have a lot of heart. It's just one aspect but they don't make the movie for me.It's the animation that makes it a memorable classic family film. It's beautifully colourful and has a nice amount of intricate details. They have really made the effort to create a wonderful world that enchants you.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meat Balls is a really fun movie that the whole family can enjoy. There are a lot of jokes for the adults to like but the kids will also be glued to the screen for the whole thing, which is great.It's not something adults will love from start to finish but there are pretty much zero movies like that around any more, Frozen is probably the best example of that that I can come up with or a few of the best Pixar movies.The voice acting is really good and there is just a lot of great, zany, wacky fun.
