A sense of failure?

DESPICABLE ME 3
Directors
: Pierre Coffin, Kyle Balda
Cert: U. 90mins

Like its predecessors, Despicable Me 3 is a ridiculous, highly entertaining cartoon, yet it also gives its characters the opportunity to learn and grow. It explores – in a very silly way – the inner struggle between good and evil, as well as the issue of dealing with failure.

Its sense of humour is sometimes immature, but the cartoonish tone clearly indicates that it’s not to be taken too seriously.
