Critics' Reviews

This is, improbably, the Minions version of a love letter to movies. The affectionate references to classics, from Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times to Harold Lloyd’s Safety Last, will go over the heads of the young target audience, as will the historic voice cameo from George Lucas, somehow coaxed out of retirement for a very funny small role. But for cine-literate parents in the room, there are some absurdist treats: it may boast the first Citizen Kane-based fart joke in cinema history.
