MINIONS MERCHANDISE DESPICABLE ME 1 BUTT MOVIE

After seeing it, my wife felt it was a 6 years and up movie only. The film also takes some scary moments and cranks them up a notch that just feels a little too much for a little kid’s movie. They are fleeting and only take up a small percentage of the movie’s running time, but I was still surprised to see them in a film that will definitely draw younger elementary-aged kids (or even younger). There are other small, fleeting hints of things taken from the adult world (and all its complex issues) that some parents might feel are inappropriate or even offensive in the context of a little kid’s movie - like, in a brief scene, there is a very gay hairdresser character (with all the stereotypes of a gay hairdresser exaggerated) whose apparent gayness is played for laughs, and another character who seems to be a cross-dresser (though that isn’t 100% clear). Personally, I found it offensive and distasteful for a kid’s movie. It’s very silly, but still: it’s a striptease. And because the majority of my readers for movies like these are parents who are really careful about what kind of entertainment their kids consume, I’m going to focus a little more on the parental guidance issues than I usually do.Īlthough the vast majority of this movie is perfectly clean and great for most kids, here’s what I mean by “the most PG” of all the Despicable Me films: male human characters, for example, do a dance that is sort of (perhaps subtly) imitating some kind of mock strip tease (played for laughs and very silly, of course) but we still see three overweight men throwing off their shirts and slapping each other’s bottoms in a very ridiculous way.

That being said, it is also probably the most “PG” out of all the Despicable Me movies. Personally, I think the critics were being a little tough on the wee yellow creatures.

(And, surprisingly, its Rotten Tomatoes started out in the strong 70s, then sunk quickly down to the 50s. Although perhaps not as superbly awesome as “Despicable Me,” “Minions” is still a riot. It’s hard not to like those banana-like creatures, and it’s hard not to like their first feature movie too.
