Incredibly Fun

Rating: 8/10 (11 October 2004)

Overall, clever, funny, very well animated, and a lotta fun.
I saw this movie as the first public premiere followed by a Q&A session with the director. First of all, I was very impressed with the CG work ... especially the fine details of the characters' hair strands. The depth of the characters' personalities was also quite appealing, superheroes with real life issues. The story was pretty clever and not very clichÃ©-laden with the usual superhero works (even though it might remind you of a coupla movies). There's also some humor that'll fly over the kiddies' heads which surprised me a little.
You're probably wondering how it compares to other Pixar films ... well, I really do feel that each film they produce just keeps getting better but each one stands on its own. The Incredibles was definitely more PG-ish than the others. Anyhow, this movie blows Sharktales outta the water!
