An American computer-animated comedy film called Minions: The Rise of Gru was developed by Illumination and distributed by Universal Pictures in 2022. Minions (2015) was a prelude to this sequel, which is the fifth installment in the Despicable Me film series overall. The film is directed by Kyle Balda, with Brad Ableson and Jonathan del Val serving as co-directors, and stars Taraji P. Henson, Michelle Yeoh, RZA, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Lucy Lawless, Dolph Lundgren, Danny Trejo, Russell Brand, Julie Andrews, and Alan Arkin as Gru and the Minions, respectively.
Minions: The Rise of Gru premiered at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 13, 2022, and was distributed in the United States by Universal Pictures on July 1, 2022, in conventional and select IMAX cinemas. Music and entertainment value for children were appreciated by critics while the film’s premise was criticized. By global box office revenue, the movie has raked in $219 million and is now the ninth highest-grossing picture of 2022.
The critical reception of Minions: The Rise of Gru has been positive (and some less traditional reviews from non-critics). According to Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a fresh rating of 71%. There is a general opinion that the Minions’ antics are starting to grate despite the retro chic injection in this sequel, but the wacky marathon of comedy will still please young children.

Thus, the film is on its way to become a great box office triumph because it was made on a budget of less than $100 million (according to reports). A sustained run on weekdays is predicted as word of mouth is favorable. When Wild Knuckles is ousted as the leader of a bunch of supervillains known as the Vicious 6, young Gru tries to get in on the action. Gru and his minions flee with the Vicious 6 on their trail after a humiliating interview.
Fortunately, he comes across an unusual guide in the form of Wild Knuckles, and learns that even the most villainous of characters may benefit from a little support from their companions from time to time. Minions: The Rise of Gru was directed by Kyle Balda. Steve Carell, Pierre Coffin, Taraji P. Henson, Michelle Yeoh, RZA, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Lucy Lawless, Dolph Lundgren, Danny Trejo, Russell Brand, Julie Andrews, and Alan Arkin are among the film’s voice cast members.
