RPM REPORTER: Despicable Me

I was invited to a private screening of Universal's 'Despicable Me' last night, organised by Filmology. After a short speech from a producer at Universal, (who claimed that the film has taken over £250 million so far in the US) the animated, 3D flick began and I was kept in hysterics right from the start.

The endearing storyline narrates the tale of a Russain evil villain, who is soon to discover that a younger competitor is out-eviling him. In a desperate attempt to become the world's eviliest man, he decides to steal the moon, and with the help of three children and his thousands of Spanish sounding minions, the outcome is both triumphant and tear-jerking all at once.

A brilliant family flick to be enjoyed by both adults and children; in particular, the references to the 'Bank Of Evil' have an amusing resonance. Click here to view the trailer.
