(For Monday 7/19) The Incredibles - 2004

Dash, Violet, Jack-Jack---all adorable and DANGEROUS kiddos in a family bred for saving us regular folks.

This movie is a cinematic animated charmer with tons of retro stuff and therefore, tons of praise from me. When it's family friendly and teaches a lesson AAAANNNNDDDD I get my retro in, it's a major winner.

The story of an auto claims adjuster (heehee) who feels a big discouraged after giving up his favorite job in exchange for a less *ahem* challenging one. He leaves the job because he hates telling people know (and tears apart some of the building by accident) and finds his way back into the world of saving peoples rear ends. He's sent to an island to fight a bot who ends up being created by an evil villain and his entire family are lured there. Ironically, as experienced so often in real life, the family makes the man and the man makes the family. As they all band together (except for Jack Jack who gets his powers while everyone's away) to work for good and against evil, they grow to learn and love more about each other.
