This week, I'm doing a Mission Impossible marathon, and I'm fixin' to watch Rogue Nation here in a bit. The MI movies seem to be very solid action/adventure films, and I dig it.
So, prior to watching this film a few days ago, I had only seen parts of it.
I think I liked MI2 more than MI1 actually. To me, the story seemed to flow better, and I really liked Thandie Newton in it. Though, the shtick with the masks is completely irritating to me.
Dougray Scott was a compelling villain, and I think the strongest villain in the series.

Very funny characters (4 more)
Parody of disney icon-er I mean fairy tale characters that make very quoteable lines
A great soundtrack by smash mouth
Cast chemistry
Although this is a kids movie there many innuendos that adults will laugh at
Shrek is very funny
This movie is arguably DreamWorks greatest film and most recognizable too.
The cast is great and almost all of the characters are hilarious and the humor is gut hurtingly funny.
One negative is the villain is not that great

David McK (3562 KP) rated Megamind (2010) in Movies

Under-rated Dreamworks animation, with Will Ferrell voicing the super villain Megamind, who spends his time fighting against the superhero MetroMan.
And then (he thinks) manages to defeat and kill the same, after he he sinks into a funk of depression.
Like Despicable Me, this also has a character called Minion (here, one character instead of a group of the same), with most of the banter coming from the interaction between Megamind and Minion in what is (essentially) a family friendly underdog story as Megamind discovers that being a villain is not everything there is to life.
