    Megamind has presentation in spades. But it also has something even rarer than that. It's got heart.

    Megamind's Kryptonite is a common weakness for any comedy so fast out of the blocks: It simply runs out of surprises.

    Like his plans, Megamind verges on greatness but has flaws. But it's fun, energetic and at times dazzling. Expect a stronger sequel - unlikely to be 'darker and grittier', though.

    Very disappointed, Will Ferrell is a star not a cartoon voice. I wanted to see this movie so bad but the plot disappointed me so bad, who wants to see the villain become good I thought Brad Pitt was going to make a comeback and save the world. Great idea with the twist but didn't work as a kids movie. I will say that there some really funny parts but wasn't worth the time.… Expand
