Have you ever watched a movie and could not stop watching it again and again? Is there one movie that is your all time favorite? Well here I will be telling you all about my favorite movie Despicable Me-4. Since it came out it has been a blockbuster. Everyone recommended that I go and watch it. I too was extremely excited to go and watch Despicable Me-4, so we bought the tickets online.
The whole week was a bore but I was still excited to go and watch the film. Finally, I was handed my popcorn ready for the amazing Despicable me 4.
From the beginning the movie catches the watchers attention by playing music while Gru (the main character) is driving his car going to his school (Lycée Pas bon) reunion undercover to arrest Maxime le Mal with the help of AVL (Anti VillainVillain League). At the reunion Maxime explained that he has been working with cockroaches and was going to take over the world before he fought off the AVL but was unsuccessful and was captured. The next day in jail Maxime was helped to escape by his girlfriend Valentina and was going to turn Gru Jr. into a cockroach hybrid. Silas Ramsbottom went out of retirement to help Gru catch Maxime. Gru and his family had to change everything: their ID, their house, their location, everything. They moved to Mayflower. Gru is a solar panel salesman, Lucy his wife is given a career as a hairdresser and the minions are taken by the AVL. Five of the minions are given superpowers but because of how much damage the minions who had the superpowers had done the rest were not given powers. In their calm new town poppy a teenage girl who is an aspiring villainess identifies who gru is and threatens to blow his cover if she can’t get the honey badger lenny from Gru’s old school. After a successful heist poppy has the honey badger Lenny.
The next day Gru goes to a country club the Poppy’s parents to the country club but Margo, Gru’s daughter, calls Gru back because the headmaster of Gru’s old school is at their door. Two of Gru’s daughters fight the headmaster while Lucy calls the mega minions but in all the chaos Gru Jr. crawls out of the house and valentina finds this a good opportunity to steal him. In their ship Maxime flies away but with the help of poppy Gru uses her flying car to try and take Gru Jr. back. Maxime’s ship crashes into a construction site but has turned Gru Jr. into a cockroach hybrid and uses him against Gru. Gru starts talking to Gru Jr. and Gru jr, turns against Maxime. Then, the AVL comes to arrest Maxime and Valentina. Gru returns home and Dr. Nefario turns Gru Jr. back to normal. Gru visits Maxime in jail and they settle their differences and sing everyone wants to rule the world while poppy enrolls to go to Lycee pas bon.
After watching this jaw dropping film I asked many, many questions like will there be a despicable me 5? How do the mega minions turn back to normal? In this movie I wasn’t keen on how Maxime liked cockroaches because cockroaches are a bit creepy and brown. I liked how the school Gru used to go to was a giant school and how the headmaster had a wheelchair with rocket boosters and monster truck tires and how the school mascot was a real honey badger that lay in the headmasters office.
I would recommend this movie to thrill seekers and people who like things that can escalate really quickly like how a rocket booster popped up onto the sides of the wheelchair.
I liked Lenny the honey badger because it was ferocious but cute and everyone wanted it but poppy took it far and planned a whole heist to get to the headmasters office.
The movie was overall amazing but I think they could have given Gru a special job to do like spy on Maxime or do something to help the AVL arrest Maxime. The part I liked the most is at the end where one of the minions gets stuck in the AVL’s safehouses vending machines. The part I didn’t like most is when Gru Jr. gets turned into a roach hybrid. The funniest part was the way all of the five mega minions come back from their holidays and overall I rate this movie ten out of ten.
