About this deal

MINIONS AND MONSTERS (MINI MOVIE) – Follow a newbie Minion as he joins three more experienced Minions in playing a 1970’s fantasy role-playing game. After struggling to gain the skills needed to master the game, the newbie unexpectedly rises to the occasion and saves the day, earning him the magical crown and the appreciation of his buddies. Minions: The Rise of Gru was animated digitally at 2K resolution, upscaled to 4K, and then graded for high dynamic range (both Dolby Vision and HDR10 are included on the disc). The film was framed at 2.39:1 for its theatrical release, and that ratio is replicated here. (There’s a “formatted for IMAX” logo during the closing credits, but it appears that The Rise of Gru was nevertheless shown at 2.39:1 on IMAX screens.) The results show the typical advantages of upscaling at the uncompressed 2K source rather than the user’s end via compressed 1080p Blu-ray, but there are some interesting quirks in this particular case. Fine detail is definitely improved compared to the Blu-ray, but facial textures appear smooth and featureless when seen from normal viewing distances, even when projected on a larger screen. Yet there’s a surprising amount of fine detail to the skin of the characters when examined up close, although that also makes the 2K origination more obvious. It’s a win some, lose some situation. That’s not really an issue with the transfer, however; instead, it’s just a reflection of the way that the textures were lit during animation. The shading is too subtle, so the details don’t stand out as clearly from a distance. On the other hand, textures like clothing and hair are much better resolved; Belle Bottom’s afro and her frilly outfits really stand out. LAIR FLAIR: MAKE YOUR OWN MINION HIDEOUT - The Minions aren’t the only ones who can build a secret lair — now you can, too! (And yours doesn’t have to be built under Gru’s bed.)

In terms of digital, the US market is starting to make this even available earlier, but with a much higher price tag, so you might want to look into this option if you’re mulling over the early access digital rental instead of taking the family to the big screen. With prices in cinemas getting up to eye watering amounts these days, it might make sense for anyone on a budget. DVD and Blu-ray details and commercials later, the franchise is still going strong with Minions: The Rise of Gru, an origins story about Gru' rise to villainy as an ago but now just seem like little more than familiar art on the digitally animated movie landscape. Neither the dialect nor the antics have evolved all

Of course, more zany hijinks and Minion chaos are included, but despite the timeline setting the film offers very little of put in some new situations here but the end result is the same predictable outcome.

The monster section can be a bit full-on for younger kids, but the pace of the film means that they don’t have to look away for too long. There’s literally no fat in Minions 2, so with everything else that’s going fro it the DVD, Blu-ray and digital versions are going to get a lot of watches over the years to come. It’s a very close second to Sing 2 for the 2022 crown. This has now developed into way more flexibility for film studios, so films come out for home viewing when they think they’re going to have the most impact (within reason). For Minions The Rise of Gru, it means that Illumination and Universal Pictures can look at all of the info and timings with regards to Christmas, cinema sales and past trends to plan things out for home entertainment. Taking all of these things into account, October is still our best estimate for the release. Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge. but most of what is here amounts to little more than a cohesive yet still loose framework to barrage the screen with gags. The film adds justGRU-VY ANIMATION - Join Steve Carell and the directors as they take us through the animation process. From Concept Art, through Storyboards and on to the Final Film, with every Gru-vy step in between explained in fun and fascinating detail. Character Profiles (1080p, 15:47 total runtime): Exploring several key characters from the film through cast and crew interviews and Plot: What’s it about? Video: How’s it look? Audio: How’s it sound? Supplements: What are the extras? The Bottom Line Plot: What’s it about? Rather than the Minions running around speaking their Spanish-gibberish hybrid dialect (that's what it sounds like to me, anyway), maybe they should As that description should make perfectly clear, Minions: The Rise of Gru is very much Gru’s story, despite the fact that this is a Minions film, not a Despicable Me film. Yet he’s nothing more than a subtitle to the main title. Universal Pictures certainly knows where their bread is buttered, so the supporting characters get top billing, while the lead has to settle for having his name after the colon. At this rate, it wouldn’t be surprising if the next film in the franchise is titled Minions: Despicable Me 4.
