With any film series, sometimes a misstep is inevitable — and for Despicable Me 3 it's misstep surprisingly involves a trope from the soap opera world.
And that’s not to say that the movie contains poor lighting or schmaltzy over-the-top acting. Rather, the the plot hinges on the long-overused trope of the “long lost relative,” a cliche so old that Sophocles was writing about it in Ancient Greece with Oedipus Rex and has been parodied in the form of All My Circuits on Futurama, Moody’s Point on The Amanda Show and the 1991 movie Soapdish.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
