"Megamind" is one of those movies that should fight negativity months before you watch them. The reason for this was the similarity with Pixar's "The Incredibles" and "Despicable Me)", for which "DreamWorks" made a lot of criticism that they almost steal ideas. Of course, the similarities are present, but for the most part the film is based on Superman - from where he develops the story in the familiar manner, "each hero needs a villain", but turned to "every villain needs a hero "- than the two titles mentioned.
Megamind and Metro Men arrive at Earth at the same time sent by their parents moments before a black hole to destroy their native worlds. But while Metro Men falls into a wealthy family where he immediately becomes a hero to everyone, Megamind is raised by criminals in a local prison. Megamind initially tries to be good, but he quickly discovers that he does not like it. So he becomes a real villain, vowing to destroy Metro Men and conquer Metro City. And one day he succeeds. The problem is that this is no purpose in life. The only way to find yourself again is by creating a new opponent - Titan superhero, bigger and stronger than Metro Men. Titan, however, decides that it is much more fun than a hero to be a villain who not only wants to rule the world but destroy it. What I can say is that Megamind did not quite prove the tragedy that everyone was predicting. It certainly will not go after my favorite animations, not as the Americans say "not by a long shot," but it will not be among my unpleasant experiences. The sad thing is that almost every element of the film can be placed in this middle territory, which can sometimes be so disappointing.

The story and the messages are mostly child-centered, although children will hardly notice part of the superhero references and for this reason it feels like not very inspirational. Another very important element, the animation was decent, but unfortunately I can only distinguish one or two moments that stand out, and in general DreamWorks animations always have stunning moments. The same applies to the 3D effect. Finally, because of the child's direction, most of the jokes in the movie are too obvious and elementary, and for that reason I personally did not have fun. And on the basis that I did not hear anyone in the hall entertaining sincerely, I can assume I'm not alone in that opinion.
superman need a villain and he found it. is that the story how he became a villain? megamind try something else but he field and then he becames a real villain
Be Good, Be Generous & be Natural.I agree with you @godflesh This movie has targeted viewers that are children. But certainly we must also take a lesson from it that everyone is good and bad human within oneself, the point is whether we influenced with our goodness or badness is upon us.
Great review.
thanks
