Review
THE INCREDIBLES is, you know how that says it all. It offers plenty of fun and wit, as well as action scenes. These aspects made this CGI film look outstanding. The animation studio of Pixar and its people, including director Brad Bird, did a tremendous job with the movie. It strongly appeals to young boys who are interested in superheroes. I liked three things about this animated feature: the supporting protagonist, Frozone, voiced by actor Samuel L. Jackson, the humorous scene when the same character asks his wife where his super-suit is, and the jazzy music score by Michael Giacchino.
THE INCREDIBLES may have borrowed the elements from comic books like those made by Marvel. It is the best superhero animated film that everyone who has seen Pixar movies like Toy Story 1, 2, 3, WALL-E, Finding Nemo and others will enjoy watching.
