Packed with high-flying action and non-stop laughs, DreamWorks Animation’s Megamind puts a whole new hilarious twist on the superhero movie. Super villain Megamind’s (Will Ferrell) dreams have come true when he captures the damsel in no distress (Tina Fey) and conquers the city’s protector Metro Man (Brad Pitt), gaining control of Metro City. But when a new villain (Jonah Hill) is created and chaos runs rampant, the world’s biggest “mind” and his comic sidekick Minion (David Cross) might actually be the ones to save the day.
