[Clue: # years waited for this sequel] 

 

Fantastically funny scenes and commendably compelling action sequences,

 

Our favorite family of superheroes is back to show us that although in this day and age seeing is believing, it is the intangible things in life that are most important.

 

Undeniably topical in its emphasis on feminism/media/modern parenting/technology/politics- but too adult and too much?

 

Return characters are more charming than ever,

 

The new characters lack and pale in comparison.

 

Even though Screenslaver is a disappointingly questionable villain,

 

Even though I might be partial for having been able to intuit the villain from the outset,

 

Noteworthy animation, voice acting, and writing from Pixar, though, always makes for family-friendly fun!
