Despicable Me 4 in AMC Dolby

Despicable Me 4 in AMC Dolby

It’s been 7 Years since the last Despicable Me installment. Gru and the Minions are BACK!!

Gru the Super Villain turned Anti Villain League Agent returns for an exciting new era of Minion Chaos.

In this new installment, Gru faces a new nemesis in Maxime Le Mal (Emmy winner Will Ferrell) and his femme fatale girlfriend Valentina (Emmy nominee Sofia Vergara), and the family is forced to go on the run. The story unfolds from there…

The Minion Mayhem is alive and well. The plot in the movie is overstuffed, but comical and definitely funny to say the least. This franchise is definitely Slapstick Comedy with a little something for the young and old.  

The cinematography, special effects and animation are very good. Definitely worth the laughs. You will laugh out loud at many scenes in the movie.

If you are looking for some Comic-Relief check out “Despicable Me 4”

This is a 4 Star Movie!!

Going in Style

“Going in Style” is Hilarious!!

Just imagine you are in your “Golden Years”. You have retired after working 30, 40 years at the same company. You have a pension that you expected to last as long as you do. The company you worked so hard for is having problems and has been purchased. The new company has decided to freeze all pensions from the purchased company. This leaves all of the current retirees without any money.

Desperate times calls for desperate measures. You get together with your retired pals and decide to rob a bank. There is planning, getting into shape and learning to shoot a gun among other tasks that you need to undertake, but first you need some help from someone with a criminal mind. The story unfolds from there…

The paid critics are very Luke-warm about “Going in Style”. What could possibly be Luke-warm about a movie with Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Alan Arkin as its stars?
I thought it was funny, entertaining and lighthearted while potentially ringing in some truth. In America today, pensions disappearing does happen. It’s funny to see 70+ year old’s putting together a plan and robbing a bank.

“Going in Style” is an entertaining movie and worth a look.

This is a 3 ½ Star Movie!
