I'll be in the minority here, but for me it's still better than the first installment. The Incredibles sequel actually goes much more in depth on the family issues, and most importantly isn't afraid to plant an even more complicated evil into the plot than the previous installment. While the central plot is predictable, the character of the main villain aptly reflects the risks and confusions of today's times, where the greatest danger by far is the virtual environment and the unlimited ways to misuse information technology for your own interests. The film is once again pushed high above average among animated films by the very respectable action scenes and of course the Incredibles family in all their glory, where the brutally cute Jack-Jack still steals almost all the attention for himself.

The wait has paid off this time. The first one remains untouchable, but most animated series would kill for a sequel of this quality. Perhaps the adults will enjoy Incredibles II more than the kids, because the childish jokes are few and far between and what comes to the fore is a story that manages to entertainingly combine the work and private lives of a family of five and, next to imaginative action scenes, inadvertently serves the superhero version of female social emancipation. Perhaps I expected it to be funnier and visually bolder, but I’m very happy with the final result and I will say right away that if Brad Bird is left at the helm, I will wholeheartedly welcome another sequel. At least Jack-Jack and Frozone, with Samuel’s traditionally delicate voice acting, still have plenty to offer.

The first one is better. I guess I didn't expect the second one to surpass it, but it's still one of the most entertaining Pixar movies of the last few years and definitely the best sequel. Brad Bird serves up some truly monumental action sequences, and there's no shortage of them. They can be breathtaking and spectacular when the fate of an entire town is at stake, and playfully entertaining and funny when Jack-Jack gets in on the action. Moreover, the script gives plenty of room for both Elastika's heroic antics and Mr. Incredible and his struggle with fatherly duties, and together, it's a great complement. Again, this is an excellent family action flick that doesn't try to go to great lengths to appeal to kid audiences. So it's a bit of a bummer that the plot itself is unnecessarily predictable and unsurprising, but not so much that it spoils the experience. Pixar has done a good job.

The best animated film of the year. The Incredibles 2 is back after 14 years and it's wonderful to watch. The animation is top-notch, the action is phenomenal, the characters are fun and Jack-Jack is delightfully funny. I felt like I was watching a Marvel movie in Anime mode only. An unexpected surprise with a good villain and a nice twist.

A fantastic animated film that surprised me in every way. While I don't consider myself an avid fan of the first one, I always enjoy watching it. With sequels, it's hard to please fans, and often there's a tendency to go for bigger, more bombastic action. This film certainly delivers in that regard; I was thoroughly impressed. But what’s more, it didn't forget to include humorous situations, often centered around little Jack-Jack. As many have already noted, he steals the show, whether it's with the raccoon or in the hilarious sequences involving Edna. Brad Bird once again proved he excels at creating well-balanced animated films and can still deliver nearly flawless entertainment. I said "nearly" intentionally—something was missing from the villain to make him top-notch. Therefore, I can't give the film a perfect score without reservation. Still, I award it a strong four stars and highly recommend catching it in movie theaters. It’s worth it. I give it 86%.
