Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes

[It] is consistently diverting and so cute you'll want to pet it. Yet it is also weightless and lacks a center.
Stephen Holden, New York Times, 07.02.2013 -
Co-directors Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin, who do Minion voices expertly, never let up on the laughs. A fart joke in 3-D may not be three times as wacky, but the high spirits of Despicable Me 2 are irresistible fun.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone, 07.08.2013 -
As a sequel [it] stands level with the first film (also directed by Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud), and may have the edge on it.
Mary F. Pols, TIME Magazine, 07.03.2013 -
"Despicable Me 2" is light on its feet, visually inventive and very fast with the repartee. It requires actors who can pull off the many peppery lines at warp speed and in that the film is lucky with its voice cast.
