The Incredibles


Released: 2004
Animated
Director: Brad Bird
Starring: Craig T. Nelson, Samuel L. Jackson, Holly Hunter
Running Time: 115 minutes
Rated: PG

The breakdown: A family of superheroes keeps their identities under wraps while trying to save the world and live a normal suburban life.

I usually really like Pixar films, but this one just doesn't do it for me.
I didn't really laugh at anything and my brother was right, out of all of the film, the only parts I did enjoy was the interior design in a few scenes that are based on real historically accurate furniture and architecture.
This superhero couple are the best of the best on a daily basis saving lives, but eventually they are forced to retire into normal lives after their middle age catches up to them.  They have three kids who were secretly born with super powers, but try to blend in with normal civilians.
The father is suddenly faced with the opportunity to jump back into action to save the world and brings his family along to help.

1 out of 5 for the normal supreme job the team at Pixar does for animation skills, but the storyline is bland and lacks any ooomph.
