20 Great Films You Won't Believe Aren't On IMDb's Top 250

6. The Incredibles

Toy Story 2
Disney

Rating: 8.0

The Top 250 is not great with animated movies. It's painful that so many acclaimed animated films such as most of Disney's classics and even Shrek, the internet's most beloved film, are off the list while something as mediocre as How to Train Your Dragon made it on. The Incredibles is one of the most painful exclusions given that it's arguably the best superhero movie of all time.

It's frustrating that The Incredibles is often described as a family film since it really isn't. It's a film that's great for absolutely everyone; kids will love the exhilarating action and enormously fun plot but adults will find themselves seriously moved by the film's examination of the concept of family.

All four of the superheroes go through compelling arcs and, despite a more cartoon-like aesthetic than other Pixar films, the animation is still just as glorious as can be expected from them. This is just one of the most entertaining and delightful animated movies ever and definitely one of the top five Pixar films. Why isn't it on the list?!
