A movie that mistakes grotesquery for wit--in other words a perfect vehicle for Steve Carell.

The film benefits immensely from a Carell lead vocal turn that's loopy and droll.

Despicable Me is bright and pretty enough that kids will like it, which is certainly its aim. It's also brainless, heartless and soulless.

I expected another short, simple kids' film with a few jokes and maybe a few loud noises to keep the children interested, but to my surprise, it ended up being much more than that.

The result is a sweet and witty bit of animated fun with both eye-popping 3-D effects and a warm heart.

There's a fine line between gleeful anarchy and wasted energy, and Despicable Me has a wonderful knack for staking out its spot and staying on the right side.

Despicable Me is darned cute. I know cute isn't to the lofty level of "message storytelling" but it can be entertaining to watch when done correctly.

A consistent stream of chuckles and a lot of convincing heart.

This animated thing pretty near out-Pixars Pixar.

So much is going on in this movie that, while there's nothing worth despising, there's not much to remember either.

One of the year's most likeable family entertainments.
