Megamind IMAX 3D ***

What do you do if you're the top villain and you've finally defeated your hero nemesis? Megamind (voiced by Will Ferrell) finds himself in such a bind after vanquishing Metro Man (Brad Pitt). He finally decides he needs to replace Metro Man, but things don't work out as planned. The animation has a sleek look, there are enough adult jokes to keep the parents amused, and twists and turns to keep it lively. All the principal voices, including also Tina Fey and Jonah Hill are fine. It's not so good as "Toy Story 3," and may remind you of "Despicable Me," but it's a welcome and pleasant diversion, especially in 3D, and even better in IMAX 3D.
