When you’re dining at Havana Central, however, it doesn’t feel like a sacrifice. Read on for a review and discount certificate

by Brian Willett

Megamind isn’t one of the many Pixar movies, but it looks a lot like it. This Paramount-produced film has the look, feel and humor of Pixar movies, which suggests that it could be a blockbuster, and might be a good sign that Paramount will be able to compete in this cash cow of a genre in the future.
