My daughter McCall asked if I wanted to go see "Despicable Me" on Saturday with her and Libby. Of course I did.
I don't even recall seeing previews for it, or maybe I just hadn't paid any attention to them, so I really knew nothing about it. Elliott and Sophie had gone to see it with their dad and both said it was really cute, so I was looking forward to going.
May I just say that it is my new favorite movie.
I am still COMPLETELY blown away by that type of animation ... it is pure genious and unbelievable.
Elliott asked me what my favorite part about it was and before I could answer Sophie said, "I'm sure it was the little girls." (Edith, Margo and Agnes - sooooooo cute!!!!!)
I said, "Oh I did love those little girls but I think my favorite part was when Gru read them that story he had written for them." It made me cry.
Talk about a feel good movie. This is one that you want to own. And I actually don't say that very often.
Have you seen it yet? (You really must ... I'm pretty sure you will love it.)
i'm so glad you came! i wish libby had slept like planned but, she was still pretty good. :) the little girls were sooo cutie! and i loved the kitty book best. ha. and when his moon suit turned pink in the wash.
ReplyDeleteOh Polly...I am so happy to see your "movie review" here...I have been contemplating going...but now it is for sure...with my youngest daughter (soon to be 16)! I could use a "feel good" movie! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have not seen it...but I want to, maybe I will just buy it! I used to go to movies all the time but now it's few and far between. I too am amazed by the animation...I bawled like a baby in "Spirit" ;D
ReplyDeleteMy daughter saw
ReplyDeletethis with a friend
and loved it, so I'm
sure we'll rent it
on DVD when it comes
out! She convinced
us to rent UP when it
came out and it, too,
was a winner. Glad
to get your review!

Thanks for the tip...I think my youngest would love it.By the way I love your daughter's name...McCall! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to see this since the
ReplyDeletepreviews came out! It looks adorable!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteWe went to see it with my three children and loved it. Since then our kids have seen it with their friends two more times. They find it funny every time. It's a great feel good movie. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Take care.

I will have to buy this one when it comes out. I love feel good movies but never seem to get to the theater. Carolyn was a "Minion" at music camp but I had no idea what that was. (Still don't for that matter) Now I'll get to find out. Can't wait for it to hit the Target shelves...
ReplyDeleteI loved this one, too! And UP was another winner...and even though they are both animated~ you almost feel like the little character have come to life by the end!!!! Darling!!!! I loved the little girl voices....awe...so cute!
ReplyDeleteOpps...I meant characters...it's too late to spell! lol
