Brad Bird’s The Incredibles is both a fun superhero movie and a surprisingly tragic tale about how society deals with those who want to break convention.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 7, 2025

Brad Bird instils his characters with genuine personalities, emotions and values. The film's slightly overlong, but its sophistication, wit and skill more than compensate.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 31, 2024

Tremendously fun. [Full review in Spanish]

The best superhero film of all time not named The Dark Knight, The Incredibles is Brad Bird’s explosive Pixar debut, a film that repositioned the hero narrative into believable context and expanded the possibilities of what a Pixar movie could be.

[Brad] Bird gets in plenty of digs about cultural coddling and conformity while creating a familiar family dynamic and then transforms it into a spandex suit version of a seventies James Bond thriller.

| Dec 3, 2022

The Incredibles has a thoughtful consideration of adult relationships, a romanticism about the need for superheroes, and a caution against the decline of Self.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 14, 2022

The level of action, violence, and carnage in the film is spectacular, making this one of Pixar's most mature productions.

| Original Score: 10/10 | Sep 30, 2020

Bird's film was a CLASSIC then, it is a CLASSIC now and will always remain so. [Full Review in Spanish]

| May 14, 2020

The Incredibles is a very sophisticated movie. A rip-roaring superhero thriller, it is also a celebration of family that doubles as a not-that-subtle denunciation of a society that tells excellence to stifle itself and enforce mediocrity...

| Feb 28, 2020

The action scenes and overall story make this a winner with all ages. A classic in its own right, The Incredibles will be around for years to come.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jan 14, 2020

The film may not rank up there with Toy Story or Finding Nemo as a slam-dunk classic, but it still has enough going for it to please both children and adults.

For all its kid-friendly sops, this feels as mature as any live-action drama.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 20, 2019

As Edna Mode might say - The Incredibles is "mahvelous dahling."

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 5, 2019

One of the best movies about work I've seen.

| Original Score: A+ | Apr 26, 2019

Kids are going to love it, and ... their parents will love it even more. Packaging [the film] as family fun, Bird baits grownups into family therapy.

| Original Score: A | Mar 15, 2019

The Incredibles is aptly-named. It tells the surprisingly relatable story it intends to tell in a time and place that feels unique from our own yet approachable.

| Original Score: 9.25/10 | Dec 7, 2018

It's difficult to sift through the top of the Pixar movies and pick a "favorite", let alone a "best", but this is one that has a real claim to both.

| Original Score: A+ | Nov 5, 2018

The rest of the plot is pretty much by the book (the comic kind). Good triumphs over evil, but only by working together as a team, parents and kids.

| Aug 24, 2017

These are lovely characters, it's a witty script, there's lots of laughs.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 29, 2015
