The Incredibles
This movie is deserving its own name. It is just incredible!!. The major things about this movie are fun, fun and fun. Good story telling, great animation and loveable characters. It’s entertaining, enjoyable and did I mention fun?
The characters are amazing. Mr. Incredible is an typical strong superguy, bold, temperamental and daring. He is the guy that just can’t stay behind while somebody is in danger and he got a soft heart… have to admire this guy. Elastigirl is my favorite, great superpower, very flexible (hey, she can stretch her body, how flexible is that?) and a wonderful mom. You definitely want this kind of mom (or wife, depending on your age range… grin). Violet is just amazing, invisibility and force field generated power, and those curtainish long black hair is just cute. Dash is my second favorite. Gotta love this small runner with super speed and reflex and witty attitude. The rest of the cast are incredibles too, the baby is adorable, Edna is hilarious, Frozone is cool (no, it’s not because he can create ice, he is just a cool guy), Mirage is dashing, the archenemy, Syndrome, is hilariously evil and that kid in the tricycle is just… absurdly funny.
The story itself is a jewel. It’s kinda standard superhero’s comeback story but since this is a family movie, it has some of family value scattered through out this movie. Good advices too.
The jokes are hilarious, lots of references to other movies (one of them is Star Wars, which I found quite amusing) and Edna’s “cape as part of a superhero’s costume” advisory is really hilarious, never thought that cape could be that censored (you have to watch this movie to find out wink).
I am quite fond of Pixar’s animation movie but this movie is not just an animation movie, this is an action movie. I feel like watching the action movie instead of animation. So yeah, this is may not be my number one animation movie (Still have “Finding Nemo” on that number one spot - those underwater rendering is still blew me away) but this is definitely my favorite action movie =).
This movie is highly recommended. It’s worth your 151 minutes, guaranteed. And did I mention that I was having so much fun watching this movie?
Sidenote: As usual with all Pixar’s movie, this movie had a short animation movie in the beginning. For this movie, the short movie is Boundin’. A good short animation about a lamb and very philosophical. So make sure you are not late get inside the theater because you don’t want to miss this short movie.

Heee. Makin ga sabar! Baru nonton Shark Tale kemarin (which was also quite funny and entertaining), the teaser for The Incredibles was soo tempting me. It’s opening November 18 in Malaysia.
Wah, jadi penasaran boy ;)
i don’t like action movie. i’m not into superhero (and action) movie. now it’s animated. i don’t think i’m gonna love it as i love finding nemo or the next shark tale.
asyiknya eui avi bisa nonton film terus :)..saya susah eui utk ke kino..anak anak ngga bisa dititipin ke siapah siapah :D
Gile gue blon dua-duanya. Jadi abis nonton Shark Tale keluar masuk lagi nonton Incredible?? Yaaah puasa-puasa gini film jam 18:00 ga ada euy! :( sigh…
bow: wajib nonton. no excuse.
fay: you gotta love this one. i am not fond of shark tale myself.
rosa: ya nonton lah ;)
an: nobody can satisfied anybody, dude. i don’t like shark tale, the story is too shallow.
Iin: ajak aja anak2nya mbak. fun kok.
Adinoto: tidak ada alasan. harus nonton. hehehe
Koreksi, bukan 151 menit tapi durasi filmnya 115 menit menurut data dari imdb.com. Btw, baru tahu kalau ternyata suara Edna ‘E’ Mode itu suaranya sutradaranya, Brad Bird, komplit deh jadi sutradara, penulis naskah dan pengisi suara juga :)). I wonder how much money he make? :p
just watched the movie and couldn’t agree more. may i add that pixar always comes up with fresh original ideas, compared to that other company who made Shark’s Tale, tried to mix spin-offs from other movie (this recipee works on Shrek sequels, their other creations) and a fish-themed animation (tried to rip Finding Nemo, but not successfully). Pixar rules. The Boundin’ short animation is deep.
hallo boy, apa kabar? udah lama banget nggak kontak. mohon maaf lahir bathin yah. saya nonton the incredibles field trip bareng dosen dan temen sekelas. setuju banget ini film yg bagus sekali, it’s even better than live action. btw, setelah ini pixar bakal buat film yg judulnya cars (ttg mobil balap), setelah itu mrk habis kontraknya dgn disney. utk toy story 3, disney bakal bikin sendiri filmnya tanpa pixar (krn hak utk karakter2nya milik disney), kacau yah?!?
