Mr. Incredible is a superhero who is even rescuing cats from trees,while out on missions to get the bad guys. Out on such a mission, he finds one of his super fans in his car,as the boy wants to help. He throws him out,and goes after the thief. Right after, he rescues a suicidal man, and ends up with him in a bank building where a notorious thief was doing a job.

His super fan,who has no powers but is really good with technology and inventing things, finds him again,and nags him while he's trying to catch the Bomb Voyage bank thief.

While the kid is trying to fly to the police, Mr. Incredible sees Bomb Voyage attached a bomb to his cape, so Mr. Incredible forgets about Bomb Voyage and tries to rescue the kid. The kid thinks he just messes with him. He manages to get the bomb off him, but the bomb drops on a suspended railway and exploding, destroys it. So now he has to stop the incoming train from dropping off.

 

After this, he and other super heroes are sued by people like the suicidal man who didn't want to be rescued, and the government refuses to work with them,as they lost millions in law suits, the superheroes having to be ordinary now, with normal jobs.

 

15 years later, Mr. Incredible is married to Elastigirl,and have 3 kids. They have a daughter,Violet,who can become invisible, a son,who is very fast, and another son,a baby, whom they think has no super powers. Yet.

 

Bored with his daily job, Mr. Incredible aka Bob, is still rescuing people with his best friend Lucius aka Frozone.

 

After being fired because while his boss was lecturing him on how not to help people, the man prevents him from helping someone who was mugged, Bob hurts him, Bob is contacted by a woman named Mirage, who asks for his help, with a robot she and her team can't control.

 

This brings new life into Bob,as he is happier, starts working out again, and is nicer and better with his family,all this while making visits to the island where he helps Mirage, while her boss, refuses to let himself known, Mirage calling him shy.

 

Soon, Mr. Incredible finds out the real reason he's there,and finds a new nemesis, Syndrome.

 

His wife, who thinks he's cheating, finds his old suit,and goes to see Edna,their designer, where she finds out about what he's really doing. So she decides to help, but the kids stole away on the private jet she pilots.

 

The animation was fun and entertaining, it was funny , it had a lot of action.

 

The voice actors had beautiful voices and did a great job.

 

The music was so and so,as I think it was inspired by the music of the '60's.

 

The Incredibles is streaming on Disney+, and is for rent / sale on Amazon, Google, Redbox, Vudu, YouTube.
