There's a new "World's Greatest Villain" in town in Despicable Me and supervillain Gru has now been bumped to #2 by Vector, the son of Bank of Evil's president! With his army of yellow pill-shaped Minions dressed in blue overalls and wearing goggles and his elderly hearing-impaired sidekick scientist, they must concoct the most outrageous plan ever to win back the title as "World's Greatest Villain." Vowing to pull off the crime of the century and steal the moon, Gru must use three little sisters from the orphanage, Margo, Edith and Agnes, to make his plan work. However, something unexpected happens before he succeeds: they steal his heart.
Now what will the second world's greatest villian do when he must choose between his supervillain reputation and becoming the greatest dad to three little girls?
Want to know what the Minions are saying at the end of Despicable Me, especially about Twilight?

Comments
My kids and I loved this movie. It was great "laugh" therapy.
I'm going to rent this on netflix!
Very Cute Movie !
Great coupons! Not my cup of tea - but I know a few kids that would love having the "Despicable Me" DVD.
I thought "Despicable Me" was cute - more for families than for child-free folks like me, but cute. And these are some great money-saving options.
Thank you
