I'm trying now to remember a really funny, laugh-out-loud line or memorable eye-popping sequence and I find I can't. The outlawed super-heroes / aliens / mutants theme has been done to death, from the X-Men to the Marvel Civil War right up to the current Supergirl TV series, likewise the husband and wife role-reversal with Mr Incredible's turn as three super-babies and a super-dad again seemed old-hat while Elastigirl's elevation to solo superstardom also felt a little like a forced and belated concession to PC-dom.

Having agreed for now to stay home to look after the kids, Mr. However, the wealthy Deavor siblings of Devtech offer new hope with a bold project to rehabilitate the public image and legal status of Supers, with Elastigirl being assigned on point to be the shining example. After they are arrested after unsuccessfully trying to stop the Underminer, their future seems bleak.
While the Parr family has accepted its collective calling as superheroes, the fact remains that their special heroism is still illegal.
