That’s a lot, I do know!

From our overview:

Despicable Me 4 is stuffed with good concepts, with a lot of them particularly interesting to what individuals like about these films: Minion antics, Gru’s villain-ness versus his regular household life, and over-the-top Massive Unhealthy Man theatrics amongst them. However all these bits and items are jumbled in and not cohesive sufficient to make sense as a narrative. The movie is discordant, like a bunch of musicians enjoying unfamiliar devices (or a bunch of — dare I say — Minions given devices) and making an attempt to make a coherent tune. However amid that chaos, generally the music begins sounding good — a cool jazzy saxophone solo soars briefly above the cacophony. You simply have to grit your tooth and ignore the clanging drums and out-of-tune oboes round it.
