The movie Megamind (2010) is one of DreamWorks's best animated films, with a great voice cast, great 3D animation, lots of funny and memorable moments, and fun action; so, having they're being a straight to streaming movie sequel fourteen years later on the streaming service Peacock had me worried because of how good the first movie was and that the original voice cast did not return, after watching, I had all the reason to worry about it because this movie was terrible. The straight to streaming sequel Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate (2024) is annoying and hard to watch with bad voice acting, bad 3D animation, bad action, and humor that is not written well; this movie will not make sense most of the time, there is a character I hated, and the movie was just poorly put together because of how certain characters will say lines of dialogue but their mouths will not be synced up to match whatever they are saying in the moment.
I do not like the different voice actor for Megamind in the movie, he does not have the charm of the character that Will Ferrell had in the first movie, and this movie changed Megamind's personality by making him unlikable and more of a showoff, and less like a funny likable character you want to root for once his old team shows up because of an evil plan that was made years ago. The character Minion has a bad name change to Ol' Chum and a voice actor that does not work well for the character, Minion is just on his own the whole movie because he wants to do his own thing without Megamind, which leads to him working somewhere else that is just too weird for a movie like this; he just shows up to help by the climax of the movie where things go wrong. Lastly, you have Roxanne Ritchi who is also not voiced that great and does not do much in the movie except be part of this big lie and has a last second change to the character by the end; also, this fan of Megamind named Keiko Morita who I hated in the movie, because she was annoying and was just added in to scenes where she did not need to show up in.
The Doom Syndicate with the members named Lady Doppler, Lord Nighty-Knight, Pierre Pressure, and Behemoth who were awful villains that got annoying and did used their abilities for stupid things that made no sense, especially since they start out tricked by Megamind thinking he is still evil; the third act with them and other villains was just hard to watch. The 3D animation is terrible with looking like a low budget movie they dumped on a streaming service, instead it makes the characters not look good and it did not make any of the action scenes fun to watch; the movie is filled with lots of dumb scenes that made the movie hard to watch and the movie felt longer than it was, along with the movie just being boring from scene to scene with their being too many dialogue filled scenes that have nothing funny being said from anyone.
The terrible sequel Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate (2024) is not worth watching at all, which is why I highly recommend watching the original first movie Megamind (2010), because while that movie was funny and fun to watch, this movie was boring, badly animated, and not funny making the movie hard to watch; the only reason to have it on is to put it on for any little kids that happen to be in the room as a distraction. If you want a continuation to the first movie, I recommend checking out the short from DreamWorks Megamind: The Button of Doom (2011) because it has the same voice actors, the same great 3D animation, and the same funny humor from the first movie; spend your time watching that than wasting your time on this.
