The people didn't lie when saying this movie was excellent

Rating: 10/10 (2 February 2005)

I just got the DVD from a friend and I have to say that I was very curious about it. Would it really be as good as people say? The answer is YES!!! Every time I see a new Pixar movie I think I've seen it all (Of course it is impossible to improve what is perfect, at least in the normal world). But somehow Pixar always manages to find something that makes the next movie even better than the previous ones. Still, I'm glad that I didn't see the movie immediately after it was released. I always prefer to let it all calm down and wait until the biggest commotion is over, because most of the time watching a movie that is praised by so many can be very disappointing. Not because it isn't any good, only because you expect the impossible.
All I can say is that it was excellent. This is a parody on all super heroes like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, even James Bond. Mr. Incredible used to be a superhero, but after making a "mistake" by saving someone who didn't want to be saved, he and his family are forced to become ordinary citizens. Now only known by his secret identity, Bob Parr, he lives with his wife Helen (formerly known as Elastigirl) and their three children Violet, Dash, and Jack Jack. He works as an insurance claims specialist, but he's fed up with his job and his boss who's always picking on him. He even gets fired and all he wants is to be a superhero again ... but he is afraid to tell it all to his wife. Then he gets a secret message that asks him to do a job as Mr. Incredible. He tells his wife that he will have to attend a conference meeting and leaves home...
What I liked so much about this movie was that it offered constant laughter, especially during the first part, where he is Bob Parr. The way he sat in his car, how he was treated by his boss... It all looked so sad, but also so incredibly comical. If you really can't laugh with this, than you probably drunk a whole bottle of vinegar or ate at least a dozen of lemons. But that's not the only thing that I liked about the movie. The story was great and of course the entire movie is visually stunning (can you expect any less). The action shots were awesome and the dialogs perfect...
It's been a long time since I've had such great fun with a movie. Still I won't give it a 10/10 but a 9.5/10. Why? Well, because I'm convinced that one of the next Pixar movies will be even better and even more stunning than this one.
