Look out superheroes, the villains are taking center stage. Gru, voiced by Steve Carell with a very weird, and sometimes difficult to understand Slavic accent, prides himself on being the world’s most villainous thief along with a resident evil scientist, Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand) and his myriads of minions.

What made the first Shrek great to me was that it was more … [Read more...] about Shrek Forever After
