About ‘Minions: The Rise of Gru’
Kevin, Bob, Stuart, Otto and the rest of the Minions were really just looking for a gig when they fell in with their new boss, an 11-year-old named Gru. He may not be large in stature, but his ambitions far exceed his diminutive height. When Gru gets an invitation to try out for an illustrious supervillain team, the Vicious 6, he feels that his dreams of world domination are about to come true at last.
Minions: The Rise of Gru
A fanboy of a supervillain supergroup known as the Vicious 6, Gru hatches a plan to become evil enough to join them, with the backup of his followers, the Minions.
However, things don’t go according to plan. Gru and the Minions soon realize that perhaps being part of the team isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, especially when the members have a hidden agenda. Gru is kidnapped by a villain named Wild Knuckles, who was presumed dead by his fellow Vicious 6 members, it’s up to the Minions to rescue him and help their adolescent boss end up on top of the supervillain heap.
