How incredible is Incredibles 2?

Fourteen years on from The Incredibles, a sequel to Pixar's hit animation has arrived - and it's "worth the wait".

That's the verdict of the Hollywood Reporter, which praises its "engaging" characters and "deep supply of wit".

Screen International lauds the film's "kinetic elan", while Forbes called it "funny, thoughtful and thrilling".

Variety, though, says Brad Bird's film - out in the US on Friday and the UK on 13 July - "is not... the great sequel" his 2004 original deserves.

Picking up where the first film left off, Incredibles 2 sees its cartoon clan of clandestine superheroes fight to have "supers" accepted again by society.
