Synopsis

Aspiring super-villain Gru is the unlikely "hero" of this eye-popping animation with comedy and action for all ages. Continually outdone by other evil-doers, Gru hatches a scheme to snatch both the moon and the title of World's Greatest Villain. But when he involves three cute-as-a-button orphans, Gru finds himself becoming a little less despicable: a disaster for any aspiring criminal mastermind. Although light on the surface, this animation tackles the concepts of what makes somebody a good person and whether somebody can truly change who they are.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
