Should a review of “Despicable Me 4' be a thoughtful analysis or just a list of the funny stuff the Minions do in it? It's a question Associated Press Film Writer Jake Coyle wrestles with in his review of the latest movie starring Gru, his family and the Minions.

So the Minions continue to evolve even if the movies don’t. Six films in and with more on the way, too much of a good thing is becoming more of a pressing question ina silly and breezy installment from Illumination Entertainment that passes by with about as much to remember it as a Saturday morning cartoon.Dionne Harmon is making major moves in Hollywood as a producer. Next up is Sunday’s BET AwardsThat’s not all bad.
This gives the movie a few jokes about Gru, who may be a family man now but who still has the bearing of a supervillain, trying to blend in. He tries to impress their next-door neighbor, a snobbish country club member named Perry Prescott . But there’s also a new character at home: baby Gru Jr. That may be why “Despicable Me 4” also quickly moves on from this narrative, shifting for a time into a heist movie. Gru is blackmailed by the Prescott daughter Poppy into stealing a honey badger from his old school. Meanwhile, the Minions, back at AVL headquarters, are used as guinea pigs for a new serum. Five of them are turned into the Mega Minions, a Fantastic Four-like assemblage of Minion-ized superheroes that have powers that they’re predictably useless at controlling.
