The
Incredibles Movie
IN THEATRES: NOVEMBER 5, 2004 Combining a
family-oriented superhero adventure with the brilliant animation of
Disneys Incredibles Pixar (the creators of MONSTERS INC. and FINDING NEMO),
THE
INCREDIBLES DVD charts new territory in the technical wizardry of
computer-generated cartoons. Using complex angles and a filmic
sensibility, the animation feels like live action, and smart techniques
such as cuts to "grainy film stock" give this movie instant
sophistication. Writer-director Brad Bird, with his creative storytelling
and well-paced character development, does the rest. This tale is set in a
slightly futuristic society where superheroes are no longer appreciated
(Read: But I didn't want to be saved!) and are forced to assume a very low
profile. So, for Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson), his wife Elastigirl
(Holly Hunter), and his three fledgling superhero kids, maintaining a
lifestyle of mediocrity in order to appear normal causes constant
friction. When the opportunity suddenly arises for the Incredibles
to use their powers to fight evil, it's trial-by-fire to learn to work as
a superteam. Together they must stop the maniacal Syndrome (Jason Lee)
from unleashing a murderous robot in a big city. Fast action and violence
involving large explosions make this a film that is better suited for
older children rather than the very little ones. Yet family themes and
comic episodes prevail, with eclectic characters like Edna the fashion
designer (voiced by Bird himself) and the iceman Frozone (Samuel L.
Jackson) adding extra moments of fun. Incredibles DVD Release Date is
