Great movie, I would've seen it even without my kid.

And if you are looking for a message out of it, I think the importance of "family" is definitely one of them.

Greatest line in movie:
"...and when everyone is super, no one will be."

Slap every moral relativist in the face right now. You can apply this logic to any liberal argument and clearly see how they are destroying our society.

If everything is true, nothing is.
If every child is a "winner," none of them are.
The list goes on...

There's so much depth to these Pixar movies as opposed to the superficial "hey! I was ugly but now I'm pretty AND a princess!"-Disney movies. I'm so glad their contract is up with Disney.

Took my four boys to see this over the Tgiving holidays (17, 15, 13, and 3). We ALL loved it; just a terrific movie. It was pretty intense.......especially for the three year old, but he's used to such things having so many siblings in their teens and twenties :).

Highly recommend the flick to all. A great ride.

"Sarah wasn't pretending to be Dash, the son in the animated Pixar movie whose superpower enables him to run super fast, but he certainly was her inspiration. ''The movie made me think not to be down on yourself. Real kids don't have superpowers, but if you believe in yourself you might be able to do things you didn't think you could do," she says.

For kids there is a strong and lasting message in the movie beyond the all the "feel just super nifty about your self" psychobabble that the globe drones on and on about. And that simple message is:

There are real monsters in this world. Ordinary men but with evil intent. And they are not like the bad guys manufactured by Hollywood.
They   will   KILL   YOU.

Children, innocent, the weak, or timid are not off limits to terrorists and other true monsters. And you will someday be tasked to confront them. And your life and the life of those you love will depend heavily on your response.

So, how are 'The Incredibles' like your family?

In my family, my daughter has the strength, and I have the force field powers. Other than that, we're exactly the same.
