Easily the best Pixar movie I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (21 March 2005)

This movie is the best I have seen in a while. After so many half-hearted or, pardon the harshness, half-witted movies, it is awesome to see a movie (an animated movie, no less) that operates on so many levels. The movie is hilarious while it comments on society's unwillingness to accept greatness without jealousy or fear. Bob Parr (a.k.a. Mr. Incredible) said it the best, "It's psychotic. They invent new ways to celebrate mediocrity, but when someone is truly exceptional..." Very profound. Being in school, I see this the most clearly of all the movie's themes. Acknowledging greatness itself belittles none. Everyone is good at something. Sorry, a little bit of a sore spot for me. Moving along, the visual quality of this feature is excellent. The people at Pixar deserve a round of applause. Having programmed in 3-D a little myself, I have a little bit of an idea how much work they had to do. From the shape of the characters and the environments to the very physics of the Incredibles' world, they had to make it all. Bravo! I would love to see an "Incredibles 2". I have heard some say that it was second rate. No offense to those people, but they don't know what they are talking about.
