    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.

    There's nothing wrong with animation aimed at adults, but this may be the first kids' movie that throws fewer bones to its supposed intended viewers than to their parents.

    This movie is a disaster. Utterly charmless, it was the first time I was really aware of the difference between a star, and Voice Actor.

Avoid this movie.… Full Review »
