Disney-Pixar Incredibles 2, a MUST see!

Published June 14, 2018

I was so lucky to attend the advance screening of the Incredibles 2 last night in 3D. I was so excited to see this movie… and it did not disappoint!!! We have been waiting a long time for this super hero family to return to the big screen. Disney Pixar- did such an amazing job.

This film surrounds Elastigirl and her career as superhero. As a working mom and entrepreneur, I could relate to so much of this film. The MomGuilt is Real! Her need to succeed in the work place for her family is something any mom or dad can relate to. We laughed and laughed throughout this whole movie. I think Jack Jack steals the show…. he is our fave. It picks up right where the last one left off. So many great things to walk away from this movie. The need for family and working as a team. Everyone has a place and working together will always prevail.

Grab the family and head out this weekend to see this amazing movie by #Disney #Pixar. A Family Favourite!! <3

It comes to theatres Friday June 15th! I almost want to go see it again… and again… and again…. 🙂

Check out the full trailer here. You don’t want to miss out on this great family Classic!
