Yeah, one of the best sequels ever made

Rating: 10/10 (17 June 2018)

I gave this movie the highest rating because of one thing. This film's main plot is that the Incredible family are trying to make superheroes legal again by having the mother Elasti-girl carry out missions. There turns out to be another villain known as the Screenslaver about. The meeting to legalize superheroes is arranged by this one guy. My dad and I just knew that he was the Screenslaver. Then it turns out...it's actually his sister!
We seriously did not see that coming! Okay, I admit that by this point it has gotten kind of clichÃ© to have the villain in a Disney or Pixar film be a twist. Still, this was at least done better than most examples. Anyway, I thought this was even better than the original. It's great to have all these great characters back in a sequel that truly does advance their mythology. It even starts out as an immediate sequel to the first movie.
There's even this great opening credits gag done in the style of the show. What many people might not know is that Elasti-girl was also the name of a DC Comics character, but Pixar explicitly got permission to use the name. Don't worry, Disney will probably eventually own DC as well. It's great to see the more mundane scenes with Mr. Incredible and his family. It really does make the film realistic. Just when you think Edna won't appear, she does! ****
