Larushka Ivan-Zadeh metro.co.uk I even laughed at the fart guns. I never laugh at fart guns. Rated: 4/5 Sep 5, 2017 Full Review Bruce Diones The New Yorker This is one of those rarities, an animated sequel that improves on the original. Jul 15, 2013 Full Review Tasha Robinson The Dissolve The assumption seems to be that the public can't get enough Minions. Despicable Me 2 sets out to test that assumption to its absolute limit.
