Laugh yourself silly and be pleasantly surprised at getting choked up about 'family matters'.

Rating: 10/10 (16 June 2018)

INCREDIBLES 2 (2018) **** (Voices of: Craig T. Nelson, Holly Hunter, Sarah Vowell, Huck Milner, Catherine Keener, Eli Fucile, Bob Odenkirk, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Bird, Sophia Bush, Brad Bird, Phil LaMarr, Isabella Rossellini, Adam Gates, Jonathan Banks, John Ratzenberger, Bill Wise, Nicholas Bird, Paul Eiding, Barry Bostwick, Michael B. Johnson, Jere Burns, Adam Rodriguez, Kimberly Adair Clark) Pixar does it again with this incredible sequel to the original with expanded nuclear family of super heroes facing the fact that society has outlawed them until a wealthy, philanthropical fan decides to reboot them as a PR gimmick with the Parr clan facing down a technological mad genius from enslaving the populace at hand. Great wit, grit, charm, harm and heart concocted by the fervid mind of Bird (yep another Bird-brained idea!) keeps the motor running (and that rad retro score by Michael Giacchino) to full tilt near exhaustive concoctions with wild-card baby Jack-Jack as the scene-stealing munchkin with unknown 'powers' of his own (note to the studio - a stand-alone chop/chop!) Laugh yourself silly and be pleasantly surprised at getting choked up about 'family matters'.
