I saw it yesterday.....real cute film. ^_^
I'm afraid that the only people in my family who got the most out of it was my brother, my youngest sister, possibly my dad and me. My sister is still young enough to like anything that is is appealing to a child's eye. But me and my bro get the most out of the whole film. Most of my family like the more natural films like Toy Story and Finding Nemo, which don't involve any futuristic gadgets or superpowers. So I know they (especially me mom) were a little weirded out and couldn't understand some of it.
But since my bro and I tend to lean more towards sci-fi and fantasy films (not to mention anime in my case), all this stuff is not new to us. We eat it up. XD
One thing I was drooling over was everyone's hair! It's.....flawed! Really. I thought Elastigirl had to most perfect hair in the movie. But Violet's? When it hangs down over the front of her head you can see it's actually slightly frizzy. It doesn't just hang down like a sheet.
Dash was adorable. I loved how excited he looked when his mom gave him permission to run "as fast as he can." Elastigirl was cool. I liked the creative use of her abilities, especially the boat and the parachute. But after she held that van to the rocket for so long, Mr. I had better treat her to a REALLY good dinner.
And listening to Frozone gripe about monologues was great! It's so true though! Villian's are always so distracted making grand speeches, they forget to do the hero in....thus leading to their own eventual downfall.
As for Syndrome's downfall, my brother and I were the only ones to catch it early. When he turned around, my bro started nudging me with his elbow and whispering in my ear. We didn't know exactly what was going to happen...but we sure knew what to blame it on. XD
And all throughout the movie I was thinking "Where's John Ratzenberger?!" He's been a voice in every other Disney/Pixar film from Toy Story (Hamm) to Finding Nemo (the school of fish). So when the Underminer finally made his appearence in the end, my brother wanted to know why I found it so funny.
