I went and saw The Incredibles last night...

Category Everything Else

... and as usual, Pixar has done a phenominal job of computer animation and story telling.  This is more of an "adult" feature than their other films, in that most of the themes will resonate with adults, such as middle-age crisis and marital trust.  The fight scenes are also a bit more graphic than past features, but not such that you'd have to worry about taking your kids.  The characters are so very believable (within the superhero motif, of course), and the dialogue will have you rolling.  The scene with his wife visiting the costume designer is absolutely hysterical...  Once Pixar finishes their Disney arrangement (Cars is their next (and last) Disney film partnership), they can start working on The Incredibles 2, as the sequel is set up perfectly at the end.

While this probably isn't my favorite Pixar feature, I'd defintely sit through it again (and again).  When it hits DVD, I'll definitely rent it for any special features.  My only complaint is that I forced my family to sit through the ending credits wondering if they'd stick any surprises (like "outtakes") at the end.  They didn't, I lost $5 to Ian, and I had to listen to both him and my wife gloat all the way home.  The only redeeming thing is that my name appears in the Pixar credits...  OK, it's actually this guy, but still...

Gravatar Image1 - How wonderful it is! Today, I had seen the film - "The Incredibles" this afternoon, my father also had seen this film in this evening. This cartoon movie is powered by Disney-Pixar.
In this film, I love the people's sensation, scene, bugbears. The scene is so sublime.
With the great imagination.
