The 'Not-So-Critical' Critic:
on MINIONS (2015, 91 minutes, PG)
The Quick of It -
There is a reason MINIONS topped the box office and became
the second most opening weekend grosser for an animated movie. There is, but
I'm not sure why. Half the movie is in babble-speak. It's like watching a
dubbed movie with some half-crazed mumbler speaking in tongues the whole time.
Ah, who am I kidding... everyone wants to have a set of minions.
Three doofs make their way into and out of trouble more
times than I care to count. As heroes, they are villain-assistants who are
searching for a master. So, you see, we have lost our minds as Americans, again
rooting for the bad guy... but in the most lovable way.
