Despicable Me 3 [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2017]

I've loved the previous Despicable Me (and Minion) movies, and although I think the franchise might be starting to wear a little thin, I did enjoy this movie. OK, now the "disclosure": Admittedly, other than me being a Despicable fan, there were two other driving forces that led me to purchase this Blu-ray. First, it was on sale at the time (always a good thing). More importantly though, I had just purchased a new Dolby-Vision capable 4K Blu-ray player, and wanted to try a movie that was DV encoded (which this is). My TV already supported DV, but I had never been able to use that feature before this. That's not to say that I wouldn't have picked this movie up eventually anyway, it's a great movie. Perhaps I just got it sooner than I might have otherwise. So, for those with Dolby Vision systems, I think you'll appreciate the image quality ... it's phenomenal. For everyone though, this is still a movie worth watching, especially if you're a Despicable fan.

Every one of the Despicable Me movies bring a smile to my face. This one was a great addition to the series. It's unfortunate that they had to change the voice actress for Agnis since her voice changed but her replacement did very well keeping the character just as sweet and cute. The plot of the movie was definitely very different compared to past movies (aside from having a villain and having to beat him again) which was a good way to keep it fresh. Keep in mind that this is not a clone movie of the past two so don't expect everything to be the same. Having an open mind will let you enjoy the movie way more than if you're trying to force the idea of getting the same exact thing as before.

The 3rd installment of the Despicable Me series is a twist on the original. Having reformed himself from his despicable ways, Gru marries Lucy and finds himself is in a dilemma that causes him to rethink his reformed life, especially when he finds out he has a brother that is maintaining his old lifestyle with success. The adventure that unfolds is in the same hilarious category as the original story with an added side story concerning the Minions who had previously abandoned their reformed creator and are now rethinking their decision, as well. Lots of Fun and Laughs!.

My 3 year old daughter is in love with all the Minion/Despicable Me films so it was a no brained to get DM3. I went with the 4K version because animated films look fantastic in this resolution. Not that a child would care, but hey, I have to watch it with her so why not enjoy it for myself in the best available format? Lol This movie is funny and my daughter loved it most of all. ... all 45 consecutive playbacks.

While there was fun to be had with Minions, it eventually found its way from potentially excellent entry in the series to overlong short that should have remained an extra on the home release. Not here, as Gru & the girls are all in on the "proper" series, and with Trey Parker as Balthazar, they landed a perfect opponent. It's been awhile since I've watched the first two Despicable Me films, but this fell right in line with the rest in entertaining my son and I from beginning to end.

Hilarious and original. After the debacle that was Minions, Despicable Me 3 returns the franchise to awesome-ness. 80's nostalgia works for us parents, and the clean humor works for our kids. Was a joy to watch, and looks very good in 4K. The only issue is that the minions storyline was too removed. Part of what makes this franchise work well was the humor the minions bring. That was somewhat missing in this film. nonetheless, still worthy of 4 stars overall.

My son and I enjoy the Despicable Me series and the Minions of course! In part 3, Gru meets his long lost twin brother Dru and they end up making mayhem. Gru lost his job so he wanted to find something new to do. Along comes his brother who convinces him to be bad again. As usual, there are the supporting characters and the wacky and funny Minions to help or "hinder" Gru!

A lot of movie franchises can get stale after a while, especially animated movies, but the Despicable Me series continues to hit home runs. This movie has all the fun you have come to expect from Gru and the minions. Can be enjoyed by all ages, but there is a scene at the beginning of the move where Gru's nearly bare behind is prominent. The 4K disc played flawlessly on my XBOX ONE S.
