The Incredibles

The story line is relatable, superhero goes through midlife crisis 17 years after settling down to do the family thing. And Mr. Incredible, voiced by Craig T. Nelson, is a character that's easy to identify with. The bad guy, voiced by Jason Lee, is funny, managing to be evil without going over the top. Holly Hunter is sexier than she's ever been as Elastigirl.
I didn't really find anything in particular to complain about. But the movie just didn't have that tight blend of kid humor, adult humor, and gee-whiz that Pixar is capable of.

Haven't seen it yet, and plan to, but the print ads are very cute. I particulartly like the one I saw on the side of a bus the other day:
No Gut, No Glory!
