Review
It's fitting to review this film, it really is. Why? Before watching ParaNorman yesterday, I saw some trailers for some films (Such as Hotel Transylvania and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey), but one trailer I saw was one for Despicable Me 2. It looked interesting given I hadn't watched the first one. Until today...Life's a weird thing (I'd say Irony but the word probably doesn't work here) And guess what? This film is interesting and does deserve a sequel. There I said it. The animation is alright (With this being from a new studio, Illumination Entertainment) Carell and the rest of the cast do a good job, with some fun moments. While it isn't in the ballpark of Pixar, it still holds its ground, working out well. Now then, what's next to be reviewed....What? Oh boy. This is gonna be one of those films...Countdown to 250: 10, 9...
Overall, I give it 8 out of 10 stars.
