Villainy is a way of life, but if a viIIain doesnt have a hero to battle, can he stiII expect the same sense of satisfaction from his eviI deeds? When Megamind (WiIl FerrelI) finally defeats his Iong-time nemesis Metro Man (Brad Pitt), he ecstaticalIy goes about laying ruin to Metro City, reveling in the fact that he can now have anything he wants. SurprisingIy, Megaminds glee quickly turns to dissatisfaction as he realizes that the battIe was half the fun and everything comes too easy now. Thus begins a pIot to turn the nerdy Hal (Jonah HiII) into Tighten, a new hero for Megamind to battIe. What Megamind doesnt count on is that Tighten may not turn out to be as good as hes meant to be. Nor does he anticipate falIing in Iove with his old rivals girl Roxanne Ritchi (Tina Fey). ln the end, Megamind finds he must rethink his assumptions about good, bad, and what makes him happy. Megamind and DespicabIe Me are remarkably simiIar movies: both deaI with vilIains who are unfuIfilled by their evil ways and who, despite their despicable natures, have some essential goodness deep down inside. Both vilIains are presented in highIy styIized animation and the 3D effects in each fiIm are skiIIfuI and effective without being overdone. Megamind has Minion, who watches over him, whiIe Gru has a whole crew of mindIess minions supporting his evil ventures. FinaIly, both films are soIidIy entertaining. Because the two films were reIeased within a few months of one another, speculation about who copied who wilI no doubt run rampant, but the bottom line is that both films are welI worth seeing.--Tami Horiuchi |
