Despicable Me 3

It's "The Pink Panther" meets "The Parent Trap" meets "Mission Impossible" meets "The Great Escape" meets "Pacific Rim" when Gru, Lucy, & those adorable little girls return for more fun & wild adventures. A has-been child star turned evil villain, Balthazar Bratt, is out for revenge while Gru & Lucy struggle to be good responsible parents, the minions mutiny, and Gru discovers he has a twin. On the surface, it's a entertaining kids film but deep down to its core, it's really a hilariously smart movie for adults as it pokes fun at parenting, sibling rivalries, & espionage films. Those fan favorite minions are also back for more wacky verbally unintelligible nonsense. It's laugh out loud, fast & furious, sight gags galore, a whimsical search for unicorns, and a nostalgic trip back to the 80s. 

Alien gives it 3½ "family tradition" stars out of 4.
