Megamind (2010)
MEGAMIND (2010) ¢ ¢ 1/2
D: Tom McGrath
A villain faces an identity crisis when the hero he's battled all his life apparently dies, and there's nothing left to stand in the way of his evil. An animated feature for fanboys, spoofing the roles that heroes and villains in comic books typically play. Which is fine, I guess, if you're part of the target audience. There's a very funny send-up of Marlon Brando's father figure in "Superman", and the Minion, a fish with the body of a gorilla robot, is an unusual sight, to say the least.
