The film is well-animated and is well-voiced by Steve Carell. The story features three ridiculously adorable girls and a story arc that surprisingly heartwarming for a movie where the main character is named Gru and aspires to be the Worst Villain in the World.
Although there are some gags which are clearly designed for adults (sign over "The Bank of Evil" reads "former Lehman Brothers.") but this is definitely a film for kids and has a PG or G sensibility. As Miyazaki has shown, this does not mean that the film has to be uninteresting to adults, and there's definitely plenty of action, again with a primarily childish bent.
Overall, you can probably wait to see this on Netflix or cable.
