Despicable Me

Despicable Me (2010) — watch online on iFILM. This animated comedy from Illumination and Universal Pictures, directed by Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin, launched one of animation's biggest franchises. Steve Carell voices Gru, a supervillain with a rocket lab in his basement and an army of yellow Minions.

Gru's latest scheme: steal the Moon. The problem — a rival villain named Vector swiped the shrink ray Gru needs to pull it off. Gru's workaround: adopt three orphaned girls, Margo, Edith, and Agnes, to infiltrate Vector's fortress. The girls, however, turn out to be more complicated than any heist target.

Russell Brand plays Dr. Nefario, the hard-of-hearing mad scientist who keeps misunderstanding orders. Julie Andrews voices Gru's withholding mother. The film earned $543 million worldwide against a $69 million budget and kicked off a franchise that spans sequels, Minion spin-offs, and a 2022 prequel. Stream Despicable Me (2010) in full on iFILM.
