Minions

From the Big Bang to the late 1960s in five minutes — not an issue for the Minions or for this film, which is set after the events depicted in the most recent production of the franchise Minions & Monsters (2026). What matters is that the three Minions—Kevin, Stuart, and Bob—find a new master to serve, who is on par with their previous bosses (from Tyrannosaurus Rex to Napoleon) in terms of mischief, and who is not afraid of his own Minion-induced demise. Via New York and a large-scale gathering of villains in Orlando, the story takes us to London in the Swinging Sixties where supervillain Scarlett Overkill plans to steal the Crown Jewels from the Queen of England.
