The folks at the movie's heart are exaggerated way beyond our capacities but not quite beyond our imaginings. The title is unjust; these are the very slightly credibles.

Consensus: Even though The Incredibles is more violent than previous Pixar offerings, it still a witty and fun-filled adventure that almost lives up to its name.

An exceptional superhero story as well as a convincing family movie.

The Incredibles est encore un bon produit provenant de Pixar [mais] dommage que l’histoire ne soit pas toujours très inspirante et ne suscite pas l’intérêt escompté.
11/09/04
The Incredibles, for all its kid-friendly sops, feels like one of the most mature movies currently gracing theaters.
11/09/04
'The Incredibles' deserves a place on the top rung of family films.
11/09/04
As in Spider-Man 2, crime-fighting and derring-do take a backseat to domestic drama and our connections with these larger-than-life yet down-to-earth characters.
11/09/04
Gorgeously designed and animated.
11/08/04
Bird continually overlays both visual and verbal gags, trusting that his audience can think fast.
11/08/04
Since it’s too much a crowd-pleaser to be critical of the violent payoff that it delivers, it’s tough not to take its apparent message seriously.
11/08/04
Pixar does it again with a comedy/action film about a family of superheroes. The writing is the real attraction. THE INCREDIBLES is subversive, heart-warming, and fun.

It is trite to say, but the only word to describe this movie is INCREDIBLE!
11/08/04
Wild, wondrous and utterly disarming ... sweet but never saccharine, freed from the shackles of postmodern irony and cleverness for its own sake.

The Incredibles isn't. It's a good movie, but it isn't the incredible type of picture we've come to expect from Pixar.
11/07/04
The show itself runs a little long for an animated feature but finishes in a flurry of special effects that left me dumbfounded. Don't miss it folks.

Overflows with slapstick and more gentle strains of humor, while a core of genuine emotion that is nothing if not ambitiously nuanced resonates throughout a script.

Pixar Animation spends an entire year on each of their mammoth productions on the scripts alone. Could this explain why their movies are consistently clever and entertaining?
11/07/04
As one who’s ingested a lot of superhero comics, books, and movies over the years, I can attest that this works as a genuine superhero movie, not just as a family film.
11/07/04
Outrageously funny and imaginative...the latest thumping thrill ride in the animation genre. A snappy and smart superhero saga that’s intriguingly charming in its chaotic mode
11/07/04
... the greatest superhero film ever.
