    "html": "<p>Pixar's \"The Incredibles\" (from Brad Bird, who did \"The Iron Giant\" before this) is simply magnificent.  It's a family film in the best sense of the word; everyone will enjoy it immensely for different reasons.  The movie is fun for kids (but not too young, 6 or 7 years old it probably the lower limit) and satisfying for adults (and comic book fans of any caliber will love the asides and references).</p>\n<p>The film homages a wide range of other storylines, including James Bond, Star Wars, almost every mainstream superhero comic ever written, and Atlas Shrugged (although in a strange way; others have noted that the most Rand-esque character is in fact the villain, but the general themes of individual achievement are in line with Rand).</p>\n<p>One bit-part character that I thought particularly funny was their Joker type, a French clown named \"Bomb Voyage.\"</p>\n<p>Rating:  worth full evening price, more than once.  (This is the highest rating.  I have seen it 3 or 4 times in the theater now and it just gets better; there's too much going on to take it all in at one viewing.)</p>\n"
