The one thing I actually took away from this film was how hard it was to be a whaler, working hard for years at a time, under less than ideal conditions.

Overall, Minions has a very upbeat quality to it, and while the story is a bit lacking, the hijinks of the Minions help save the film from becoming another film in the 3D animated cannon fodder.

Lets face it, had this movie been made without Stallone, it would have been a completely different film and not nearly as good.  Rocky had to be included in the next chapter of this saga or it would have been a cheap knock off of an iconic franchise.

The 30th anniversary Blu-ray 4 disc set comes in a great little book-like packaging with pictures and details of each disc.  For the Ultimate Back To The Future fan this is a great holiday gift and one to be treasured.

Ritchie makes The Man From U.N.C.L.E. campy and fun, while throwing in big stunts and explosions similar to his other films.  The action and story flow well and the picturesque shots are breathtaking.
