Posted Nov 11, 2004 - Awesome. There's high expectations with Pixar animated films, yet this one managed to exceed mine. THE INCREDIBLES puts welcome spins on the superhero genre. A superhero family is forced into conforming into a mediocre lifestyle due to a lawsuit happy society. Exceptional circumstances inspire them to get their groove back with brilliantly original kinds of scenes that will delight even the most jaded moviegoer. Don't miss the hilarious sequence on the dangers of wearing a cape. It's more inspired than FINDING NEMO, and has more in it to please adults.

Posted Nov 11, 2004 - This movie is certainly incredible! :) With breathtaking computer animation, The Incredibles continues Pixar's streak of great movies. With an interesting twist on the superhero story, The Incredibles finds people upset with heroes and forces them into hiding. While I don't think this would happen in real life, it allows for some great comedic moments. Even typical family happenings are given a super-powered twist. Things really get cracking when the good vs. evil plot is set into motion. The action sequences are stunning and quite possibly the best CG action scenes ever made. There are also some hilarious references to catch if you enjoy comic books (No capes!) and a great ending. All in all, I must recommend this extremely well-done movie!

Posted Nov 10, 2004 - Pixar movies are the closest thing to "sure thing" when it comes to box office revenue and critical acclaim (though Monsters Inc. didn't do much for me). The Incredibles was a great family movie. The kids loved it and it had enough to keep adult minds thoroughly engaged. The film's theme is one any middle-aged person can relate to -- making a comeback after years of dormancy and mediocrity. The animated Superhero had its day in my generation but seemed to fade away as the 1-ounce brains peddled dreck like the Smurfs and Strawberry Shortcake as a means to make children's minds less violent, I guess (didn't quite work either). The CGI technology keeps getting better and seems vastly improved over Toy Story 10 years ago. The Incredibles does a great job in entertaining us, as well as teaching a little lesson on self-esteem and not accepting mediocrity. Should be the favorite for best animated feature at the Oscars.

Posted Nov 8, 2004 - One of the few family films that I actually enjoyed. It was a charming little superhero movie. I felt that towards the beginning of the film they were trying to show how sue happy Americans have become over the last few years.

Posted Nov 8, 2004 - Vey good family feature. Pixar has another hit on its hands. My problem with the movie is that it is a rip-off of the Fantasic Four. The Fantastic Four is the first family of comics. The powers and genders have been tweaked. The father is the Thing. The mother is Mister Fantastic. The daughter is the Invisible Girl. The son and the baby are a combo of the Human Torch. They actually fight a character that could pass for the Mole Man. Is this an homage or a stolen license?

Posted Nov 7, 2004 - Another bulls-eye for Pixar. One of the few movies that is "great for all ages" and yet doesn't fall into the trap of being too "childish". A retired super hero aches to break out of the run-of-the-mill family man role and go back to his glory days, and he gets it. And so does the rest of the family. Excellent animation, cute storyline; I can't think of a bad thing about it.
