Despicable Me 2 (2013) 8/10

Starring : Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, Benjamin Bratt, Miranda Cosgrove, Russell Brand
Director : Pierre Coffin & Chris Renaud
Running Time : 95 mins

Retired villain Gru (Carrell) is called back into the world of villainy by a woman named Lucy (Wiig), an agent of the Anti Villain League, who suspect that here is a villain undercover in a local mall who wants to use a secret formula to turn otherwise docile creatures into mutant killing machines.

Although this started off incredibly slowly, this soon picked up the pace and really did its best to match the wit and charm of the original. It would be near impossible to make a sequel that could match the original, but with the romantic storyline and the flipping of Gru to a sort of hero makes this an imaginative follow up to the fantastic original.
