Just realized I hadn't written an entry about The
Incredibles, which we saw last Saturday. It was excellent. I
tell ya, those folks at Pixar sure know what they're doing. The
premise is fabulous, the story is compelling. And Jason Lee is great
as the villain. But I think the best aspect of the film is the powers
that the various superheroes have, and all the clever ways that they
wind up using them. I guess it's kind of similar to the X-Men
movie in that respect.
Oh, and the graphics are pretty impressive -- I noticed a few shots
(with no people in them) that were pretty nearly photorealistic. Of
course they're still pretty far off from doing photorealistic people;
in this case the people are all fairly comic-book-like, but obviously
that's appropriate for this film.
Anyway, highly recommended.
