- Quotes
Gru: Don't think of it as lying. Think of it as high stakes pretending.
Agnes: Well, I'm not going to.
Gru: Ah, just a little white lie.
Agnes: Nope!
Gru: Agnes! As your father, I command you to lie.
Agnes: No!
Gru: Yes! Lie!
Agnes: Mm-mm.
Gru: You are walking on thin ice, little lady.
[Agnes groans as she bangs her fork and spoon on the table. Gru Jr. grabs the piece of bacon from the fork and eats it.]
Gru: Why can't you be more like your sister, Edith? She lies all the time.
Edith: No I don't.
Gru: See? See? She's lying right now. Beautifully, I might add.
- ConnectionsFeatured in The Project: Episode dated 17 June 2024 (2024)
Positives for Despicable Me 4 (2024): There is still a lot of fun that can be had with this set of characters and honestly these movies won't survive without them. I enjoyed that this movie has a wide variety of different characters with their own distinct personalities and charisma. I really enjoyed the addition of Joey King as Poppy Prescott as one of the the neighbor characters to the Gru Family. I liked the fact that the Gru Family has to figure out how they need to adapt to a new neighborhood. I really enjoyed the journey that Gru goes on with his infant son Gru Jr. Where at the beginning of the movie, Gru Jr. Hates his father and then eventually starts to like his father at he end of the movie. And finally, the minions are still a lot of fun with their insane antics.
Mixed for Despicable Me 4 (2024): The main issue that I have with this movie is the screenplay and that's primarily because the two screenwriters of this movie are Mike White, the creator of The White Lotus (2021-) and Ken Daurio, the screenwriter of multiple Illumination Animated Movies. And while I do enjoy what both of these guys bring to the table with their writing, their styles of writing do not feel compatible with each other in term of how they write their characters, construct their stories, the tone that they're going for and the themes that they want to explore. It literally feels the movie is trying to figure out what it wants to be throughout the runtime.
Negatives for Despicable Me 4 (2024): Similar to Despicable Me 3 (2017), Dr. Nefario is not in this movie, with the exception of a small cameo. And finally, the villains of both Maxime Le Mal and Valentina are by far the weakest in the franchise which is bizarre because they are voiced by Will Ferrell and Sofia Vergara respectively.
Overall, Despicable Me 4 (2024) is still a fun movie within this franchise but we've reached the point where this franchise is starting to feel played out and that's not a good thing.
