If I had had the chance I probably should have seen Despicable Me in 3D, since there are so clearly moments in the film designed to be shared by parent and child as a 3D experience. A roller coaster ride shared by Gru (Steve Carell) and the three orphans who eventually become his family would be an ideal first 3D moment for the members of a generation that may have to watch movies in 3D whether they want to or not. Despicable Me works just fine the old-fashioned way though; Carell is agreeably silly and the supporting cast (Kristen Wiig, Jason Segel, and Russell Brand stand out) doesn't work too hard to provide additional laughs. Refreshingly free of irony and pop-culture references, the story (would-be villain Gru has his heart melted by three orphan girls) feels like it's taking place in a children's picture book as opposed to a sharply defined and expensive animated world. I wish the succession of animated previews I'd seen beforehand had looked as appetizing, but Despicable Me does a great deal by not trying to do too much.
