Take Batman and Joker? Flash and Zoom? Superman and Lex? The villain in this movie is terrible, it could have been amazing, but they made the motivation less than admirable.Ī good villain needs to have a complete hate of the Super and must have a personal connection. Now you are going backwards again? That doesn't make sense. Huh? WTF? We already knew that 'supers' were disliked but that was all supposed to change at the end of the 1st movie. The script slips in to the old 'supers are bad' again which happened the last time. The Underminer is where they left off fourteen years ago, but it is a short lived event. I thought the opening scenes were going to lead to something great.

Reviewed by digitalbeachbum 1 / 10 I waited how long for this pile of trash? At leat I can't accuse it of being a quick cash-in but really this is one set of retired super-heroes which should have remained on the shelf. In truth I think that this sort of thing was done way better in 'Megamind', 'Despicable Me' and of course the first Incredibles feature. For me, I found the film really dragged in places with its too predictable villain and unmemorable climax which no amount of flashy graphics could disguise. The sub-plot of Violet and her young beau reminded me of any number of 'Married With Children' episodes with like I said, a lack of good gags, plus Dash's characterisation was just irritating and new shape-shifting baby Jack-Jack (what kind of name is that?) even more so. I'm trying now to remember a really funny, laugh-out-loud line or memorable eye-popping sequence and I find I can't. The outlawed super-heroes / aliens / mutants theme has been done to death, from the X-Men to the Marvel Civil War right up to the current Supergirl TV series, likewise the husband and wife role-reversal with Mr Incredible's turn as three super-babies and a super-dad again seemed old-hat while Elastigirl's elevation to solo superstardom also felt a little like a forced and belated concession to PC-dom. Don't get me wrong, the Pixar animation is fantastic as always, but somewhere along the line, the story, characters and humour lack something. Somehow, for me, the movie just fell flat and didn't please me to anything like the degree of its predecessor. Better late than never you might say but personally after watching this 14-years later sequel, I'm tending to better never than late. I loved the first 'The Incredibles' and remember wondering why a follow-up hadn't been made soon after its success.
