The movie went in a lot of directions I wasn't expecting out of it (and that's a good thing in this case)
This is a movie I'd been wanting to see for a very long time, but never had the opportunity to until recently, and let me tell you: it was worth the wait.The movie went in a lot of directions I wasn't expecting out of it (and that's a good thing in this case), and genuinely managed to surprise me with where the plot ACTUALLY went. It very much deconstructs the usual dynamic of this kind of 'superhero vs supervillain' setup, albeit while obviously parodying Superman in both Megamind and Metro Man's backstories (plus the latter's powers).And naturally, being a Dreamworks movie, the CG is fantastic. Though Megamind often looks a bit... odd, it's undoubtedly intentional. And of course, Megamind's definitely right when discussing the difference between a 'villain', and a 'SUPERvillain'; his presentation is fantastic. When he arrives, he makes sure you KNOW IT.Also, gratuitous use of very fitting rock music is always a plus. Megamind's got good taste.

Wonderful movie
I love this movie!!! Once upon a time I owned every Disney VHS there was, and then, well, VHS was a thing of the past (can you imagine!!!?) and my final ability to play my beloved movies broke for the umpteenth time and I just couldn't justify fixing it again. I tried converting them to DVD or digital media, but no go--I finally just gave them away and am in the process of rebuilding my collection. For any body who hasn't seen Megamind (is there really anybody out there who hasn't?) this is a wonderful movie with a positive message that you will remember years down the road. But underneath it all, there is an endearing story that has earned this movie its' place in the "Classic" hall of fame.Amazon Digital is wonderful--it's nice to have this movie there in my forever library so I can watch it whenever and wherever I wish. The process was simple--press buy and viola! It showed up in my library.

This movie has some fun, unexpected turns
This movie has some fun, unexpected turns, great voice acting, and great visuals and action sequences.I especially like the writing for the strong female lead, and the idea of redemption which I was not anticipating. In some ways, it is a little more emotionally mature than your average cartoon, and fun for the whole family.

I recomend this film in any version, but the 3D version is spectacular -- if you like that sort of thing.
The movie itself is a clever funny animated film that is fun for the whole family. I can watch this movie several times and still enjoy the humor in it. I bought this is 3D. While the 2D version is great, the 3D version is one of the best 3D films I have seen with many (too many to count) effects popping off the screen. I recomend this film in any version, but the 3D version is spectacular -- if you like that sort of thing.

Mega awesome!
I had seen this movie year ago, but I picked it up from A on Prime Day 2016. I watched it with my young daughter, who loves The Incredibles and similar stories. I enjoyed this move a lot. Mostly because I like the humor of the film and the really creative role-swap where the good guy dies early int eh film and the bad guy gets super-bored becuase he has complete control with no opposition.I won't spoil any more of the film, but I really like the direction that these characters take. It has some of the wonderful super-gadgets that you find in the Dispicable Me films (yes, this was first), think dehydration ray, and explores some elements of super hero angst from an adult character's point of view like we see in the Incredibles. This review is just a rambling mess. . . watch this movie, you won't be disappointed unless you are very jaded and negative.PS. Despite the statement in the movie made by the bad guy (good guy?) that there is no Tooth Fairy,. Easter Bunny, Santa Claus. . . I think this can be a great film to share with your children. I really like that hte characters are somewhat complex and not 100% good or evil. Introducing a gray area in a superhero film is a pretty modern thing to do.
