For their first day on the job as the new protectors of Metro City, Megamind (Ferrell) and Minion (Cross) are selling off the gadgets from their evil lair. But when one seemingly harmless "button" unleashes the gigantic robot MEGA-MEGAmind, the duo will have to resort to their old tricks to restore order.
Short storyline:
Megamind is a man who is more of a product of his circumstance than a true villain. He’s raised in a prison by inmates after crash-landing there while his nemesis crash lands in a wealthy house (after blocking Megamind’s ship), it has a poignancy to it that develops during Megamind’s criminal phase of the film. He develops this long standing hatred and rivalry from there with Metro Man as a reaction to the way he’s treated as opposed to being evil from the beginning like a lot of villains. If he’d been a hero from the start you get the feeling he’d be just as incompetent, if immensely intelligent, but there’s a sort of emptiness in his schemes outside of their comic value. They are not formulated in a malicious way, feeling more like cheeky shenanigans, and that makes him a fascinating character.
