The verdict

Audiences rate it 7.6 out of 10 on TMDB across 909 votes — a strong score. It is playing 5 times at 1 cinema across 1 district, from HK$60 to HK$110 depending on cinema and time. The cheapest seat is at PREMIERE ELEMENTS in Tsim Sha Tsui, HK$60. Category I · 90 minutes.

What it is about

Fresh off the worldwide blockbuster success of summer 2024’s funniest comedy, Despicable Me 4, Illumination expands its joyful animated universe with a riotous new chapter, featuring all-new characters, in the biggest global animated franchise in history: Minions & Monsters. 

This is the rambunctious, ridiculous and totally true story of how the Minions conquered Hollywood, became movie stars, lost everything, unleashed monsters onto the world and then banded together to try and save the planet from the mayhem they had just created. 
 

What to expect

The Minions bumble into Tinseltown and accidentally let real monsters loose on the world. Pierre Coffin directs and voices the chaos; Allison Janney, Trey Parker, Christoph Waltz and Jesse Eisenberg round out the cast. At 90 minutes and rated I, it is a compact, all-ages sit. The English version plays with Chinese subtitles. This week it is down to one cinema in one district, with five screenings across the next seven days. The cheapest ticket is HK$60. Audiences who have already caught it (909 votes) give it a 7.6, which points to a reliable hit of slapstick rather than a franchise high point. If you are in the neighbourhood and need a no-fuss family outing, it does the job — but check the schedule before you travel.

What viewers said

When the yellow perils manage to gatecrash a film studio and cause havoc on the set of a film, the director is terrified that his two rotund bosses will want his head. Instead, though, they adore the chaos and commission him to make more films featuring the "Minions". Swiftly, they go from rags to riches and are hugely popular until... Sound. Silent movies have gone the way of the dodo and now there is to be audio. […]

They've even ruined this. It's lost its old charm. This is the first time I've been so bored while watching Minions. It's not bad, but it's not great either. It's just something to watch casually. Either I'm getting old and it doesn't give me the same feeling anymore, or they've really messed it up. It's actually an animation I really loved. Still, thank you for your effort.
