Paradise

The Incredible­s 2

-

Cast: Holly Hunter, Samuel L Jackson, Bob Odenkirk

That 2004 superhero comedy The Incredible­s made icons out of working class parents Mr Incredible and Elastigirl, their three children, and super fashion extraordin­aire Edna Mode. Fourteen years later, they are finally all back in a new adventure. This new film sees wife and mother Elastigirl become the face of a new evil-fighting corporatio­n, while Mr Incredible remains at home to help with maths homework and breakfast duty. That blending of sci-fi adventure with the banalities of modern-day domestic life is a large part of what made the original such a wonderful and lasting film – it also won two Academy Awards – and audiences will no doubt thrill once again to its visual humour. In an age of endless Marvel and DC films, The Incredible­s 2 stands out for its inventiven­ess and colourful fun.
