Each attempt turns into a failure thanks to the caped superhero known as "Metro Man", a hero until the day Megamind actually kills him.
Metro Man's appearance was quite limited in the beginning of the movie. Audience might think it's another typical hero verses evil animation but it's not entirely that.
After killing off Metro Man early in the show, Megamind (Will Ferrell) is a supervillain without a superhero. He then decides to create a new hero opponent called "Tighten", who promises to be bigger, better and stronger than Metro Man.
Tighten used to be a cameraman for the reporter Roxanne, who is believed to be Metro Man's love interest. But ever since Metro Man died, she felt hopeless and always depressed over the lost of Metro City.
Therefore, with the new powers Tighten possess - all thanks to Megamind - he thought he would be able to attract Roxanne's attention. So after the superhero training given by a disguised god-father by Megamind, the reporter-turned-almost-hero went straight for Roxanne.
Unfortunately, Roxanne wasn't interested and Tighten thinks it's more fun to be a villain than a hero. Tighten doesn't just want to rule the city, he wants to destroy it. He wants to take revenge.
On the day the Tighten hero should return to Metro City, Megamind went on a city rampage but Tighten didn't appear. But soon after that, Tighten fought with Megamind and the initial villain Megamind turned out to be an unlikely hero and saved Metro City from Tighten's evil wrath.
In the end, Megamind and Roxanne got together.
That's why Megamind not a typical one hero versus one villain movie. It has a twist that made things more interesting and fresh.
Overall, it was quite a fun movie. The inclusion of humor and jokes are visible every now and then. Megamind, together with Minion, are interesting characters that made the the storyline entertaining. Tighten, on the other hand, doesn't seem likely to be a true hero. Finally, Roxanne is not the typical damsel in distress.
Take note, it's not recommended to watch Megamind in 3D because the 3D effects are not worth watching. Don't waste your money.
Noobie Rating: 6/10 (Watch it for fun and leisure)
