All I have to say is, WOW! Completely disregarding that this film is a cartoon, it was truly one of the greatest films of the year. What a blast. Really funny, visually spectacular, and heartwarming all the same. This film is definitely geared toward being more enjoyable for adults than any of the other PIXAR movies, and most of them did very well at this also.
A lot of scenes in this film felt like a really great Bond movie, especially all of the scenes at the villain's remote compound.
I challenge anyone to see this film and not be really impressed with it. I've really enjoyed Pixar's films to date, but this one definitely takes the crown as far as I'm concerned.
The Edna Mode character was truly an inspired choice. Rush out and see this movie, the most fun you'll have at the movies right now guaranteed.

    Saw it last week. Good, but not as good as the Toy Stories. A bit too long at nearly 2 hours and not enough laugh's.

    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    That could not be farther from the truth. Heck, I said it was good that would indicate that I liked it. Just not as good as some of their other films.

    Also, I have a closet of 350+ movies I like.

    Give me some credit here.

    Actually, I thought it was the other way around... I can not remember Ron hating anything, the worst I've heard from him is a "it was allright" review...
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    I just got back from this movie......WOW! I'm a big fan of all the Pixar movies, but this one completely blew me away. Seriously, don't miss this one. I will be waiting anxiously for the DVD.
