More animated magic from Pixar, this 2004 Academy Award winner for Best Animated Feature Film is lots of fun as a family of Superheroes, led by Mr. Incredible and his wife, Elastigirl, take on rejected fan and now anti-hero Syndrome. Okay, so it's not "Citizen Kane" or "Casablanca," but honestly, do you see Bogey voicing someone like Mr. Incredible? Of course not! Just as older Disney animated features were classic of their era, so, too, are today's offerings from Pixar. Well, most of them, at least! And this is one of them...
 Great movie in theaters, great at home!, 2008-08-08
I have loved this movie since when I first saw it in theaters. On the surface the movie is a fun adventure story with a conflict between good and evil (good wins). However it is also about family, finding your strength, and being different.
An unconventional approach to your traditional superhero movies, this one visits the private lives of heroes and addresses the duality of having so much power, yet not always fitting in to public life easily. It speaks to the tendency of society to praise everyone equally. We emphasize minor accomplishments and understate great accomplishments in order that no one feels bad- "When everyone is special, no one is." I fully agree. I think this is something we need to hear today and I'm glad Pixar had the guts to say it.
The film also highlights the value of having your family there for you and explores relationships in the 'Incredible' family: husband to wife, parents to kids, brother to sister. The movie defines each character well (except JackJack who is after all a baby) and you believe they are real. It strikes a nice balance of dramatic and humorous, the story is well paced and the plot delightfully unexpected.
I highly recommend this movie which has lost nothing in the conversion from big screen to DVD. It is a fabulous addition to any home DVD collection and one you will love watching for years to come.
