MinionsTheRiseofGru delivers plenty of fun moments, but its colorful, crazy world is beginning to feel a bit too familiar.
You don’t get to be the highest-grossing animated film franchise of all time without knowing how to appeal to your audience, even when its as an audience as wide-ranging as fans of the Despicable Me films.
The fifth installment of the Despicable Me film franchise and the sequel to 2015’s Minions, The Rise of Gru is a prequel film of sorts, following 11-yr-old aspiring supervillain Felonious Gru as he attempts to join a supervillain group known as the Vicious 6. When an unexpected turn of events results in the villains hunting him, Gru must rely on his ever-present, yellow minions, a new mentor, and some new allies to escape the sinister Belle Bottom and the rest of the Vicious 6.
Where prior Minions film was predominantly set in the late ’60s, The Rise of Gru unfolds in the mid-’70s, and like its predecessor, the film’s period setting offers plenty of opportunities to give the adventure a unique feel. The music, fashion, and trends of that particular era play well to the bright palette established by animation studio Illumination across the franchise.
Although there’s plenty of comedy to be found in Minions: The Rise of Gru, the film doesn’t maintain quite the momentum of its predecessors over the course of its 88-minute runtime. Gru and the Minions are still funny, but the hijinks they get up to are starting to feel a bit too familiar these days — particularly those of the franchise’s little, yellow agents of chaos, who are growing more predictable with each installment.
