The Incredibles

I don't know if I like this film, I mean I do like some aspects of it but it's attempt to appeal to children and adult audiences stretches it a bit too far. It's got dark and light moments, the animation and lighting effects are groovy. It's got humour and menace. I think if I was pushed to put my finger on it, I'd say the Mr Incredible character is the weakness of the film. He is just not somebody I can empathise with. All the parts are there, its a tried and tested formula but his character ultimately leaves me feeling like so what? Shame, its enjoyable all the same but it is not a classic film.
