Gru, Lucy, Margo, Edith, and Agnes welcome a new member to the family, Gru Jr., who has enough of the old man in him to endlessly torment his dad. When a new nemesis, Maxime Le Mal and his girlfriend Valentina show up, the family is forced to go on the run. Co-directors Chris Renaud and Patrick Delage and the voice actors (Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, Will Ferrell and Pierre Coffin) bring plenty of madcap laughs to the latest iteration of Illumination’s crowd-pleasing franchise.
“How typical of these Despicable filmmakers to tug at our hearts and also remind us that the series is more about family than goons, gadgets and goofy schemes. For my money, Despicable Me 4 is the best outing of this franchise since its inception.” — Peter Howell, The Toronto Star
“Sure it repeats everything it did the last three times, but thanks to Steve Carell’s lovable grump of a Gru and those wild and crazy Minions, the random lunacy remains hard to resist.” — Peter Travers, ABC News
