The Incredibles was really good. I wasn't looking forward to seeing it because I have been turned off by so many bad animated comedy movies that have come out within the last five years. It also appeared too main-stream and "made to please" (i.e. unoriginal). And I did not see that it had a very high rating of 96% on rottentomatoes.com. So I was pleasantly surprised - it was well made, funny, and had an interesting story.

I also saw Sideways, which was very good. I like Paul Giamatti, and was looking forward to this movie, which was rated extremely high on rottentomatoes.com (99%). It didn't disappoint me and was very funny. I also thought it was well directed and enjoyed some of the seventies-style screen splits, along with the music. I think it is much more of a man's movie - men will be able to relate to and understand it better. I love these types of movies for guys - many Kurosawa movies and also Roger Dodger are of this nature and highly recommended.

I have created a list of recommended movies, similar to the ugly picks page.
