Despicable Me 2 Review by a Not-so-expert!

This 4th of July weekend I took my daughters to see Despicable Me 2. At first I was a bit reserved to take them being that the rating was PG but I realized I was overthinking things after I seen the movie. The movie is a sequel to the 2010 animated film Despicable Me.

Despicable Me 2 focuses on Gru (Steve Carell) and his relationships or lack thereof. Gru is now a loving father and "good" guy; and although he is in a much better place there is still a void. When I first heard that Gru falls in love, I thought the entire movie would be dedicated to him and his love-life. This however was not the case. The directors did a great job of mixing all aspects of Gru in this film. His role as a father, leader to his minions, his love-life, and his now "good" guy role are all intertwined to deliver a comedic, heart-warming film that my girls and I truly enjoyed.

Aside from the fact that my 5 year old has to go to the potty and my 2 year old decided to have her own sequel (number 2 get it?) during the film, I have no true complaints!

I will suggest limiting your kiddos liquid intake prior to and during the film; as well as taking them to the potty before the movie due to it being approximately an hour and a half in length. Also, as far as the PG rating it should not be a concern, like all animated movies these days there is some adult humor that will go right over your kids head. So no worries!

FabKids.com Review

I have been a member of FabKids for a few months. Fabkids.com is a unique clothing and accessory club for your little girlies! When I first came across the online club I was so excited to get started and purchase my first order for my daughters. The fact that the monthly cost is $39.95 for a a top and bottom was a bit of a let down, but I felt that the added bonus of a hair accessory compensated slightly. How it works? You log onto FabKids.com and create a "style profile" by taking a quiz. This is in order for the stylists to have a better idea of the type of outfits you and your daughter will like. Each month your daughter will have her "own"styled outfits and you select one for $39.95. Like most online clubs, you do have the option to skip a month should you decide you don't want to spend $39.95 that month; or if there aren't any outfits that are quite right. The outfits on FabKids are uniquely designed with sometimes radical style choices in mind. Th...
