Perhaps I am spoiled by Buffy and other, for the cursory nature of this entry, post-modern superheroes but I wish the Incredibles had addressed the idea of normal versus special in the society more in depth when the father, I believe, mentions that society praises mediocrity. Great, now let's explore that concept in depth... nope, the movie is over. So close to greatness--at least it was pretty and incredibly close to greatness.
