Movie Review: Incredibles 2 (2018)

Hello!

I know, it is still in the twelve days of Christmas, so should I be reviewing another Christmas movie? Well, I was going to review my favorite Christmas movie ever, but I was enjoying it so much while watching it I forgot to make notes... So maybe you'll see my review of that next year (no, not in the next week [yikes!], next December).

"So what are you going to review today?", you ask. Well, I was thinking about all the times I have reviewed a movie the same year it came out...

Once. My very first review.

"What!? That's crazy!", you exclaim. Yes, I know. Therefore, I will do it today! And yes, I know that this came out over six months ago, but we are still in the same year! And I reviewed the first one this year, so that is another bonus. I am very organized here, ish.

Though, it is weird that this came out 14 years after the original.

"You're too late. 14 years too late..."

Sorry, I couldn't help myself!

My guarantee: On ALL of my reviews there are NO spoilers unless I give you warning.

Cinematography/Animation: 8, I've been reading and watching a lot of videos on how they do all the animation, and it is a lot of work!
