I went into Minions and Monsters expecting another chaotic entry in a franchise that’s been very hit or miss for me.
But somehow, this one found a fresh angle.
Hollywood nostalgia, monster movie chaos, classic Minions nonsense, my kids’ reactions, and even a Bakersfield Now segment with Chloe all come together for a very different kind of Minions review.
So is this one actually worth seeing with your family this 4th of July weekend?
