MEGAMIND (B+)

Starring the voices of: Will Farrell, Brad Pitt, Tina Fey, David Cross and Jonah Hill


Story: Megamind is the most brilliant super-villain the world has ever known...and the least successful. Over the years, he has tried to conquer Metro City in every imaginable way - Each attempt, a colossal failure thanks to the caped superhero known as "Metro Man," until the day Megamind actually defeats him in the throes of one of his botched evil plans. Suddenly, the fate of Metro City is threatened when a new villain arrives and chaos runs rampant, leaving everyone to wonder: Can the world's biggest "mind" actually be the one to save the day? (Paramount Pictures)

Rated: PG

Bottom Line: It’s lacking the depth of emotion that helped TOY STORY 3 set the new bar for animated features – but it still remains a twistingly told and crisply animated movie that’s simple, clever and funny. It’s also worth the extra dough for 3D and should be appropriate (and not scary or too loud) for most children. MEGAMIND is megafun!
