Short Opinion: Super Villain Comedy, Good but wishes it was a little more funny.
Feelings: Want’s someone to call so I can answer saying “HOLOâ€.
At first glance the movie’s plot is fairly basic. It’s your typical hero V. villain; hero always wins and always prevents villain from being too villainy. However the movies portrayal of the villain is a nice change, and it does play out differently than many of your comic books.
The overall “comedy factor†of the movie passed, but not with flying colors… more like hovering colors (corny attempt at being creative). The movie is funny, don’t get me wrong, but it isn’t a movie where you’d call up a buddy and be all “DUDE just saw the funniest movie!†It had more giggle scenes then laughing scenes…and yes I said giggle.
The movie’s visuals were very good. The animations and special effects were flawless and worked well to really give you the whole superhero vibe. The building’s in Metro City looked great, and it was almost sad to see so much destroyed by all the reckless Super Humans.
All in all the movie was good. Parents this is a family appropriate movie and for those of you older then 12, it’ll make you laugh too. The voice over actors did a phenomenal job which made the movie fun to watch. Megamind’s random mispronunciation of words has inspired me to say “Holo†(pronounced Hole-oh) when I answer my phone. I enjoyed the movies ending and I’m sure you will too… unless you’re demented.
