What is Universal Pictures Despicable Me 3?

"Despicable Me 3" is a 2017 American 3D computer-animated comedy film produced by Illumination Entertainment and distributed by Universal Pictures. Directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda, the movie is the third installment in the "Despicable Me" franchise, following "Despicable Me" (2010) and "Despicable Me 2" (2013).

The story follows reformed villain Gru (voiced by Steve Carell) who is now married to his former rival, Agent Lucy (voiced by Kristen Wiig), and the two have become agents for the Anti-Villain League (AVL). However, things take a turn when Gru meets his long-lost twin brother, Dru (also voiced by Steve Carell), who convinces him to return to his villainous ways. Meanwhile, the AVL is tracking down a new villain known as Balthazar Bratt (voiced by Trey Parker), a former child star who is plotting to destroy Hollywood.

The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the voice acting, animation, and humor, although it was criticized for overstuffed plot and lack of emotional depth. "Despicable Me 3" grossed over $1 billion worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing animated film of 2017 and the fourth-highest-grossing film of that year.

The film's success prompted the development of a spin-off film focused on the beloved Minions, titled "Minions: The Rise of Gru," set for release in 2022. Overall, "Despicable Me 3" was another strong addition to the successful franchise that has captured audiences with its lovable characters and zany humor.
