Too violent to be a good children's movie

Rating: 6/10 (18 July 2006)

This is one more well-produced Pixar movie. Technically, it is great. Also, there is much action and the story is even a bit interesting. It is also very funny in the early parts, where they try to lead a normal life with variable success.
But there are two things I really don't like with it: the violence and the morals.
For being a movie for kids, I find it daring to have the hero finding the corpse of a murdered man, and a list of victims that the villain has killed. We also see clips where several super-heroes are killed in accidents due to wearing capes. To top that off, the villain is killed in a brutal way.
My view of the morals comes from comparing to "Robots". In "Robots" we are told that you should be persistent in working towards your dreams and that anyone can make it. In "Incredibles", we see that if you are not born super, you can not be super, and if you try to be super anyway, you should... be killed by being sucked into turbine???
I know, the villain is made villain due to bad treatment by Mr Incredible. This is the good part, what excuses the otherwise horrible message. But it is sad that his creativity and ingenuity is only used for evil things, as if inventing things is evil. He is a classic mad scientist and science is evil.
So most of all, I question this is as a good children's movie. Too much violence and deaths, anti-creative and anti-science. Get "Robots" for the kids and watch "Incredibles" yourself.
