The movie that spawned two franchises starring both the human characters of this film and the strange yellow blobs known as Minions, Despicable Me is almost a surprising amount of fun. Gru (Steve Carell) is a villain who loves vanquishing all who stand in the way of evil with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and other gadgetry. Unfortunately, he still can’t get taken seriously. So, he resolves to kidnap the moon to finally capture the world’s attention. But when three little orphan girls show up on his doorstep determined to make him their father, Gru finds that it’s a little harder to do evil.

While many kids these days have had an introduction to The Karate Kid through Cobra Kai, this 2010 remake starring Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan is a worthwhile addition to the franchise. 12-year-old Dre Parker (Smith) loves his life in Detroit but when his mother is relocated to China for work, Dre finds himself a fish out of water in his new country. Targeted by bullies, Dre has no one to turn to except the maintenance man Mr. Han (Jackie Chan) who is secretly a kung fu master. Han teaches Dru that kung fu isn’t about physical prowess but about being master of one’s emotions, setting Dre up to face down his bullies once and for all.

With everything that happened in 2020, you may have missed DreamWorks Animation’s sequel to The Croods. In The Croods: A New Age, the relative harmony between the Crood family and their companion, Guy (Ryan Reynolds), is threatened when they stumble upon the Betterman family, Phil (Peter Dinklage) and Hope (Leslie Mann). The Bettermans are more advanced than the Croods, and that also puts some strain on the romance between Guy and Eep Crood (Emma Stone). But when the men of both families are kidnapped, it falls to the women to bridge the gap between them and save the day.

Laika’s stop-motion animated films are criminally underrated at the box office, but they’ve got a lot of heart. Laika’s latest movie, Missing Link, casts Hugh Jackman as Sir Lionel Frost, an explorer and investigator who dreams of finding the mythical Sasquatch and earning his way into the Society of Great Men. However, the Sasquatch in question has other plans. Mr. Link (Zach Galifianakis), or “Susan” as he likes to be called, simply wants Lionel’s help reuniting with his distant relatives, the Yetis, half a world away. To make the journey, Lionel will have to enlist the aid of his ex, Adelina Fortnight (Zoe Saldana), while also avoiding a hunter who is out to stop them.
