"The star of the convention is one Scarlet Overkill, and Sandra Bullock is having the time of her life as the current queen of the super villain set. The minions eventually find themselves in her employ and the rest of the film deals with the fallout of her schemes. But her character, and her refreshingly non-antagonistic relationship with Herb Overkill (a delightfully daffy Jon Hamm), is so much more interesting and original than the minions themselves that I found myself wanting more of the two villainous lovers and less of the title characters...

"And yes, a female super villain is unique enough in this day-and-age that I wanted more of Bullock doing her best wanna-be Blofeld, especially as she is quite good at it, and less of the minions going through the motions...

"Bullock and Ham are a hoot to the end."

Yes. Yes they are!
