   I really enjoyed watching this movie. I agree with your review that Incredibles 2 is incredibly incredible. I have watched Incredibles 1 and when I heard about this one I couldn’t wait to watch it. Like the review says, family is one of the main themes for this movie. It’s great to see that Mr. Incredible uses his whole family to save the day. This movie is for all people, and can be watched by both adults and kids. It shows how with support from family you can get through anything. It is a great choice for a family movie.

   This movie was a great movie to watch! I was very excited for this film to come out after I had watched the first one and enjoyed it so much.

   This movie was a great one to watch. I was very excited to hear about this film coming out because I had watched the first one previously and enjoyed it so much. I agree with you that family and friends is what the film is about and also that those are the most important people. After being in film studies for a few weeks now, its interesting to look back or watch a film and be able to get in depth with it. Especially for this film since its animated- it’s interesting to see the different scenes and the way that it was produced.

   First off I want to say I 100% agree with you on stating that the film emphasizes the importance of family and friends. Not only does this film emphasize family and friends but even the first incredibles movie emphasizes this too. I feel like this film also expresses that everybody has a certain role to play and when everybody plays their role correctly , everybody ends up successful.The overall importance is that no matter who you are , you will eventually need help and its ok to ask , because you are stronger together. One disappointment that I had with this movie is that it took a while to come out but was worth the wait.

   I completely agree with you on the fact that family and friends are the number one focus and priority of this film. I have seen this film before and there is so much teamwork and love throughout all of the characters which really captures the audience. The characters in the film definitely all have the individual traits that make them different from one another but always resemble a family counting on each other. I think the film does have a deeper perspective when focusing on the bond between the characters which reveals the strength they have. I also agree with the fact that no matter who you are, friends and family will help you get through obstacles in life.

   I agree that the main focus of this is that no matter how strong you are, you need the support of family and friends. Similar to life, you can’t survive on your own as you progress through life. In the beginning, we see the family of 5 showing their individual strengths, however, it is due to them working by themselves that made the situation worse. Only when they started to work together were they able to do a decent job. This movie really did a good job emphasizing the idea of “teamwork makes a dream work”.
7. Gabriel Jacobs 07.26.21 / 3pm

   I agree with your idea that family and friends is what the characters need to get through everything in this story. They all have to stick together and work with each other to accomplish things. They fail to do well in catching villains at first, until they meet a company that gives them new suits, and accessories. They use this to fight bad guys and eventually the “Screen Slaver” gets caught after many traumatic events between the incredibles, the villains, and the zombies they’ve turned super heroes into. The Screen Slaver uses the good guys and hypnotizes them into fighting against the incredibles.
8. Jack Gonzalez 09.23.21 / 1pm

   This was a great sequel to a great movie. As Josh Velazquez brings out, it has integrated morals to it as well. Although I disagree with those challenges being easily overcome. While the Incredible family was able to overcome their differences and then defeat the villain it still took much effort and was a close call. Something I appreciated about the movie itself was simply how much effort was put into it. The movie took 14 years to finish making and the care to detail shows in the end product.
9. Anna Dissman 10.15.21 / 9am

   Hi Brad! I agree with what you had to say about Incredibles 2 and how it is about family. I thought that this film follows the classical Hollywood narrative and how the problem that the main characters are faced with eventually gets solved at the end of the movie. In this movie specifically, the characters can be seen changing from the last movie in their superpower abilities. Also, the detail of the animation in this movie is very impressive. In some scenes in the film, the audience can see the slight fuzz on Mr. Incredibles suit which just shows just how much detail and editing that went into the animation of this movie. Overall, I enjoyed reading your post!
10. Jessica Lynch 03.02.22 / 8pm

    I could not agree more, this move is all about family. Family may drive you crazy at times but at the end of the day they will be there to help you figure your problems out or like in this case catch the villain. I had seen the first Incredibles movie when I was a child and I was most excited when I heard there was going to be a sequel to it. The first film was a big success and they left the ending so they could make a second film. This film has it all, the animation, the visual effects and the sound. All in all it is a great movie.
11. Justice Jones 03.04.22 / 10pm

    Great way to put it! I have seen both of the Incredibles films and a common theme seen in both films is family. Like you stated, the film focuses on how family and friends are what can help you get out of situations. The Incredibles is one of the most famous Disney Pixar movies and can be considered to be a blockbuster movie. Released in 2018, Incredibles 2 had an estimated budget of $200,000,000 and had a gross worldwide of $1,243,089,244. The second Incredibles came out fourteen years after the first and I believe this is what helped bring so much attention to the second film. The first Incredibles ended on a cliffhanger so there was a lot of hype around the second film because the story would be picking up where it left off. This film was produced by some major film companies such as Pixar and Walt Disney Pictures. With that being said, it would not be considered an independent film.

    Definitely a solid summarization of The Incredibles movies! I enjoyed the incredibles movies very much and always went to see them with my family. I’d say The Incredibles films were definitely solid blockbusters that could be counted on to bring in a profit. What I thought was really special in The Incredibles franchise was the combination of how impressive the animations were and the emphasis put on the characters and how integral they were to the theme throughout both films. Another thing you could say about The Incredibles films is that there is points trying to be conveyed about love and where love can take you in life.m

    This is a great summarization and review of what the movie, Incredibles, is truly about. I loved the first Incredibles movie as a child and was so excited to hear that there would be a second coming out also. It honestly exceeded my expectations, and even as an adult, I still enjoyed it. This movie truly does teach us a valuable lessons about support. You could be the strongest person in the world, like Mr Incredible, but you can still face problems and obstacles along your journey. With the help of the people you love, only then can you break the barriers and conquer anything. This review perfectly sums up the message of the movie and I definitely recommend the Incredibles to anyone and everyone.
14. Kayla Sidenberg 07.21.22 / 12pm

    I couldn’t agree more; family is the main focus of this move. Even if your family may occasionally drive you crazy, they will always be there to listen to your issues and, in this case, assist you catch the bad guy. When I learned that there would be a sequel to the Incredibles, which I had seen as a child, I was ecstatic. They left the ending since the first movie was so successful and they wanted to make a sequel. The animation, the special effects, and the sound are all there in this movie. Overall, it’s a fantastic film.
15. Emily Ruiz 03.17.23 / 10pm

    I remember waiting so long for the sequel of the first movie to come out and once it did, my family and I had gone to the theaters to watch the second incredibles move. From reading this review I totally agree with it. And how the themes in this film are mainly about family and friends. And even though all of the members in this family have specific and unique talents that can help the characters overcome some obstacles sometimes, in the end the family needs to work together while using all of their unique abilities to fully overcome any obstacles that they have to face as superhero. So, this film is another great film that younger and older audiences are able to enjoy.

    When I watch Disney Pixar movies, I think of my childhood as everyone probably does. Watching Pixar and Disney films growing made me happy. I loved watching the Incredibles 2. I am excited for Incredibles 3 to be coming out. If your ever wanting to go back to your childhood, watch Incredibles or Disney Pixar movies in general.
