Palatine Park District Free Family Movie Night - Despicable Me

Palatine Park District presents the annual Free Family Movie Night on Thursday, August 15 beginning at dusk, approximately 8:00pm. The movie Despicable Me will be shown at the Fred P. Hall Amphitheater, 262 E. Palatine Road, Palatine. Admission is free and coolers, blankets, and chairs are allowed.

 

The story of Gru and his minions is perfect for the entire family. In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon. (Yes, the moon!) Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad. The world's greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.
