Review: Pixar has an almost flawless reputation. It all started with “Toy Story”. And with the superhero hype, Pixar couldn’t be left behind. And “The Incredibles” is also one of the best superhero movies ever made.
The story is about a family of superheroes. The film opens with Mr. Incredible and his girlfriend Elastigirl, who manage to capture villain Bomb Voyage. But besides doing so many good things, the superhero also did some bad stuff and citizens start to complain. All superheroes have to live a normal suburban life.
For fifteen years Bob and Helen Parr live as that average married couple. Bob works at an insurance company and Helen is a stay at home mom. They have three kids. Violet is an insecure teen, Dash is hyperactive and baby Jack Jack. And the Parr kids also have super powers. All they want is to use them for the good.
As always, the film looks amazing. All the characters are just great, especially Edna Mode with her ‘no cape speech’. The film is fun, dynamic, visually stunning, humorous, inventive and pure entertainment for the entire family.  Fans of Pixar and/ or superheroes should definitely watch “The Incredibles”.

Rating: 5/ 5
