Brad Bird's The Incredibles 2 is, much like its predecessor, delightful as an animated feature but really, really delightful as a superhero picture.

The Incredibles 2 3D
Sequel to Disney/Pixar's 2004 box office crushing CGI action-adventure. Oscar-winning writer-director Brad Bird returns alongside fellow Academy Award-winner Holly Hunter (voicing Elastigirl). Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible) is left to care for Jack-Jack while Helen (Elastigirl) is out saving the world.
It's a tough transition for everyone, made tougher by the fact that the family is still unaware of baby Jack-Jack’s emerging superpowers. When a new villain hatches a brilliant and dangerous plot, the family and Frozone (Samuel L. Jackson) must find a way to work together again.

The Incredibles 2 3D / Reviews
Variety
What was organic, and even obsessive, in the first outing comes off as pat and elaborate formula here.

Bird seizes on a key insight: healthy families can reconstitute themselves and come out better for it. Healthy sequels can, too.

Rolling Stone
This follow-up is every bit the start-to-finish sensation as the original, and Brad Bird's subversive spirit is alive and thriving. Like its Oscar-winning predecessor, The Incredibles 2 doesn't ring cartoonish. It rings true.

This is the most bountiful visual feast seen yet in a year full of bountiful big-screen feasts.

Though it would be unrealistic to expect "Incredibles 2" to have quite the genre-busting surprise of the original, it is as good as it can be without that shock of the new - delivering comedy, adventure and all too human moments with a generous hand.

Incredibles 2 certainly proves worth the wait, even if it hits the target but not the bull's eye in quite the way the first one did.

...while briskly and breezily enjoyable, The Incredibles 2 lacks the poppy freshness of its predecessor.
