The Incredibles: how conservative can a super-family be? Dad's superstrong, mom's super-flexible. Son has lightning speed, daughter turns invisible. Boring! However, the movie was rather brilliant nonetheless. I just loved it's style and graphic design, it's a brilliant job. It was also hilarious, with lots of laughs stemming from the action, not words. Highly recommended!
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow was another thing. Filmed completely against a blue screen, the movie looked bizarre. It reached for certain old-fashioned style, and captured it perfectly. Still, it looks a bit alienating perhaps. The plot is a classic adventure movie stuff and thus quite old-fashioned as well. I don't know - it's certainly worth seeing just for the unique style, but I wouldn't still consider it a top-tier movie.
