Review of Incredibles 2 (2018) by Matt V — 15 Jun 2018

I really enjoyed this movie. I love the fact that it literally begins where the last one ends. It's almost as if the past 14 years never happened, which is probably Pixar's intention. I love the role reversal of Elastigirl moonlighting as a covert super hero, even listening to police scanners, just like her husband in the first movie. I felt like the movie was slow at times, particularly during the time when Elastigirl is just beginning her "new job". They tried to balance it out with Mr. Incredible dealing with Jack-Jack getting his powers; while it was funny I don't think it was successful. Perhaps they should have introduced "The Screenslaver" a bit earlier, to liven up the plot sooner.

As with all Pixar movies, this movie is not without its Easter Eggs. Of course John Ratzenberger is in the film, reprising the role of Underminer. A Pixar movie is not complete without their good luck charm. Also, I feel like there is some homage paid to Tony Stark/Iron Man.
