   Almost Like The Incredibles

   *** This review may contain spoilers ***

   Megamind is what I would call an ‘almost-there’ movie. It is almost the
   epic animation that was “The Incredibles”, almost as hilarious as the
   “Madagascar” films and it almost makes you forget you are watching a
   3-D movie. When you add up these ‘almost points’, the score is a family
   flick that is both fun and funny to watch, whether in 3-D or not.

   Here, the 3-D effects are not obtrusive and after a while, you kind of
   get comfortable and forget you are wearing the 3-D glasses. Which, I
   must say, is a big plus for the 3-D gimmick. Yes, it is still a gimmick
   to make you pay more for the ticket.

   Megamind (Will Ferrell) is the super-villain who is trying to conquer
   Metro City in every imaginable way possible. However, every time he
   tries, he is thwarted by the egoistic superhero Metro Man (Brad Pitt).
   Then one day, Megamind succeeds in getting rid of Metro Man! Instead of
   being happy, Megamind realizes that achieving his life’s ambition is
   the worst thing that ever happened to him. He decides that the only way
   out of his rut is to create a new hero opponent called Titan, who
   promises to be bigger, better and stronger than Metro Man ever was.
   Pretty quickly Titan (Jonah Hill) starts to think it’s much more fun to
   be a villain than a good guy.

   Now, if after getting rid of Metro Man, Megamind feels lost without an
   arch-rival, he still has his Muse. It is in the form of the feisty TV
   newscaster Roxanne Ritchi, played with a huge dose of feminist charm by
   Tina Fey. In fact, Roxanne is the heroine and the agent of change for
   both Megamind and her cameraman Hal (Jonah Hill again) – although not
   necessary for good.

   Megamind is about villainy – and if it is lonely at the top, it is also
   lonely at the bottom of the moral pool. Writers Alan J. Schoolcraft and
   Brent Simons have penned many interesting characters, some of whom
   change personality at the turn of a watch bezel. Heroes are boring, and
   Metro Man is so full of himself that he is clownish and boring. Not so
   Megamind, though. His encounters with Roxanne sparkle with chemistry
   and they keep the movie going, both for the kids and adults. And
   director Tom McGrath, who also provides the voice for a prison guard,
   keeps the pace fast and the tone goofy. It won’t blow your mind but it
   will tickle your funny bone.

   In simple terms, its entertaining

   From the makers of KungFu Panda and How to train your dragon, comes a
   new movie called 'Megamind', which you can get skeptic about a lot of
   things, but you cannot deny that its entertaining. I got to see this in
   a screening few days back. The movie is full of explosions, nice
   special effects, enormous scale of the world, well mixed soundtracks,
   and fantastic presentation. Every character is likable and sympathetic.
   The animation quality is unquestionable and it has some nice jokes. It
   is fast paced, although I personally would have preferred if they made
   the movie a bit longer; There is a lot of margin for drama and
   emotional content with the story they have and also since DWA is really
   putting good depth in their movies lately, I was expecting the same,
   but they preferred to keep it short.

   As I have always seen, one thing DWA movies have in common… they are
   entertaining.

   Fun but not Pixar

   Saw this at a test screening. It wasn't completely finished in terms of
   animation, much of it was in storyboard phase, but from what I could
   tell the animation is top notch. Jonah Hill is perfect as Titan. Will
   Ferrell was decent as Megamind. Brad Pitt was good while he was in it.

   Its half spoof half turn the genre on its head. There are some pretty
   good jokes and some decent set ups. There's no real heart here though.
   Everyone's likable but you know it'll all be OK.

   Several scenes were very well animated, there is one of the biggest
   explosions ever animated in this film which was pretty cool. Go take
   the kids, especially the boys, who'll most likely get a kick out of
   Megamind.

   Megamind a must see!

   From the creators of Kung Fu Panda and Monsters vs. Aliens comes
   Megamind! I got lucky and was invited to see a test screening of this
   movie. It is a great movie. Yes it is animated, but it is fun and
   entertaining for kids and Adults. Sort of like Shrek, with that good
   humor that adults get. Its a fun superhero/villain movie, with good
   morals and lots of laughs. I think everyone would enjoy this movie.
   Brad Pitt does a great job. Will Ferrel is hilarious! I usually don't
   find him very funny but he is in this movie. If you choose not to see
   this movie in the theater, do yourself a favor and still rent it when
   it comes out on DVD. You wont regret watching it.
