This was bound to be popular, from the creators of toy story and monsters inc comes the incredibles.

This is the first time out for the movies producer and comes in high quality, using effects not seen in movies before.

It just didn't hit the right spot for me, I think had I have seen this before the likes of finding nemo and shrek I would have been awestruck but it just didn't have the same impact on me.

The script is a little different and has some really funny moments, genuine laugh out loud stuff, but they just aren't as consistent as its counterparts.
It features Three primary, out of action superheros, who long for the good old days. When the oportunity of a comeback is opened up to one of them, he just cannot resist the temptation to get involved, leaving behind his former super-heroine wife and super-powered kids at home, but sinister hands are at work.
The plot is rather dry, but does keep you on your toes, but with all the latest marvel movies do we have to have more?

The main voices that will be known are that of Helen Hunt, who really doesn't have a strong enough voice to stand out and as all the posters advertise the voice of Samuel L Jackson one of hollywoods A-list actors, tis a pity he is only in it as a cameo charactor.

But the charactors are endearing enough to keep you hooked... this isn't a bad film, it's just not all that good.

This, in my opinion, is more one for the kids than the adult audience.

Harmless stuff, with some genuinely funny moments.

Incredibles, The (2004) - review by w_p_kelly

Advantages: Funny both for adults and children alike, great characterisation and plot, another Pixar classic
Disadvantages: Maybe a little less engaging for younger viewers than previous Pixar films, and jokes aimed more for older audience than in Toy Story or other Pixar outings.
