DreamWorks Animation has reached its peak this year with How to Train Your Dragon. A sublime animation, visually stunning, with a touching story and not lose anything to rival Pixar. Now comes Megamind, that despite not having the same quality of How to Train Your Dragon, has a great history and is extremely fun.
Directed by Tom MacGrath (Madagascar 1 and 2) and written by Alan J. Schoolcraft & Brent Simons, debuting as writers, the history begins with two aliens being sent to Earth. One becomes the town hero, Metro Man. The other chooses evil a becomes the villain: Megamind. After countless battles and failures, Megamind finally defeat Metro Man and takes city power. And then the villain comes to a crisis. After all, without someone to deal with, and having already turned the city inside out, what else a villain has to do?
The film has fun references to Superman, from its origin to the Jor-El, Superman's father, played by Marlon Brando in Superman - The Movie 1978.
In technical aspects, while not having as many details and textures how How to Train Your Dragon, the film nonetheless has a beautiful sight, with an excellent animation and expressive characters.
The soundtrack is great. Ozzy Osbourne, George Thorogood, AC / DC and Guns'n'Roses are part of the selection and make the sequences even more exciting.
Megamind let sentimentality aside and focus on fun, and at no time sounds forced. It is obvious that there is no comparison with Toy Story 3 - Pixar animation also launched this year - or the aforementioned How to Train Your Dragon, but Megamind fulfills its proposal and is one more hit of the studio.
