Critics Consensus

Fast paced and teeming with slapstick gags, Despicable Me 4 is as overstuffed as a piñata but full of enough candy to give audiences an enjoyable sugar rush.

Ed Potton

Times (UK)

Yet it’s saved by the trademark mischief and exuberance of Illumination, the French animators who are as integral to the franchise as Steve Carell’s vaguely Slavic voice acting.

Rated: 3/5

Robbie Collin

Daily Telegraph (UK)

It’s pure E numbers – 90 minutes of mad animals, disco music, violence and belching – and if a good film can be made of those things, this is what it looks like.

Rated: 4/5

Elizabeth Weitzman

Time Out

Writers Mike White and Ken Daurio seem to have stitched their screenplay together from various drafts, an unfocused approach exacerbated by disjointed direction from Chris Renaud and Patrick Delage.

Sean Chandler Talks About

The film has little to offer beyond superficial laughs. Instead of a plot, the film is a stack of subplots. It's watchable but entirely forgettable.

Thorn Theater Reviews

This franchise is getting thin and repetitive. It feels like they're drawing at strings to get villains for gru and isn't capturing the magic of 1,2 and the first minions. At the end of the day, the minions and gru are the reason you watch but they aren't given much to work with here.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
