Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDirector Pierre Coffin voiced all 899 minions in this film.
- GoofsThe ticket prices at the Tower of London were shown in decimal currency (and were too expensive for the time). The film is set in 1968, but the UK didn't adopt a decimal currency until 1971.
- Quotes
Scarlett Overkill: Work for me, and all this will be yours: respect, power...
Stuart the Minion: Banana!
Scarlett Overkill: ...Banana!
- Crazy creditsThe Universal Pictures fanfare is sung by Minions. One of them holds a note until he loses his breath and passes out on the Illumination Entertainment title card.
- Alternate versionsIn the Netflix print, most signs, despite being in English, have closed captions that describe them, such as the cake for Count Dracula, New York, 1968, Tower of London, a Richard Nixon billboard, Herb's "letter" to Scarlet, the pub in England, the bank that the Nelsons rob (as well as their custom license plate), Villain Con tables, and the warnings on Scarlet's ultimate weapon, to name a few.

Featured review
Funny, but that's not it!
So, this movie disappointed me a bit, but not that much.
Minions Stuart, Kevin and Bob went on a journey to find a super-villain, which will they serve. On their journey, they went to VillainCon (I think it was called like that) and they started to serve one of the best villains in the world (America), Scarlet Overkill. They helped her to steal a crown.
This movie is not that good as Despicable Me, but it's better than Despicable Me 2. In the first one, minions are funnier than in this one called Minions, which is a shame. Of course, this movie is funny, but there are some jokes that are here for the kids. The movie's ending is great. After I saw young Gru and when his theme song started playing, I was being like:"OK, I think this is one of the most awesome movie (animated) I ever saw." The funniest joke in this movie is when minions came to the VillainCon (again, don't know if it's called like that), and Scarlet came at a stage with her awesome dress, dude dressed like her screamed:"I love you, Scarlet!" I mean, that was hilarious. Also, I really liked that moment when Scarlet told minions a "bed-time story" (which was cruel), Bob fell asleep. Characters (Bob, Stuart and Kevin) are done well in this movie. They have a lot of chemistry together. They are always all together and they are different. Kevin is brave and he is a chief. Bob is like a child. He is playful and scared. And Stuart, nahh... He is just hungry.
At the end, this was a really short review, but I have nothing else to say. I mean, jokes were mostly funny, characters have a good chemistry, ending is badass and... That's it. This movie is not that good as I was thinking it'll be, but it was good.
