Jack-Jack Superbaby

I am consistently impressed by Pixar films. I have usually seen the 'parent' film (in this case "The Incredibles") which prompts me to buy the DVD. I particularly enjoy the shorts for the most profound of reasons...they make me laugh. Jack Jack Attack does just that. I laugh until I cry...every time I watch. It's a good story line with good writing and (of course) good animation. But most of all, I was delighted to see & hear one of my favorite cameo characters from "The Incredibles": Kari, the babysitter (as voiced by Bret Parker). Ms. Parker exhibits great comedic timing and character and has a wonderfully distinctive voice with an expanded opportunity to shine in Jack Jack Attack. The only other voice that tickles me so consistently is that of the great Bert Lahr as the Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz. Now, that's pretty exalted company! Bravo, Pixar! Keep 'um coming...and let's hear more from Bret Parker. (You go, girl!)

With everyones favourite incredibles character being Jack-Jack (sorry Forzon). What would you not love about a short titled Jack-Jack Attack??

In short this needed far more scenes off Jack-Jack to truly add this onto the Disney mantel. With the majority off scenes featuring the baby sitter this 5 minutes only left me unfulfilled.

Although fans of Incredibles will get enjoyment out of this extra content. Showing you what really happened with those voicemails that were left from the baby sitter. Giving you a futher look into this universe and how Syndrome got his hands on Jack-Jack.

It is worth a watch but please give us more Jack-Jack!!

"I even got some Mozart to play while he sleeps, because as leading experts say: Mozart makes babies smarter!"

Kari the babysitter has no idea what she's getting into when she subjects baby Jack-Jack Parr to this "neurological stimulation". Jack-Jack is the youngest of the Incredibles, a family of superheroes who are off saving the world. They all think Jack-Jack has no powers, but as Kari is about to discover, the truth is very different!

For anyone who has seen the Incredibles, this is a hilarious and indispensable little outtake from the main plot. I laugh myself silly every time I see it. Poor Jack-Jack has to put up with Mozart and flashcards, while Kari runs around trying to figure out where and what he is. All babysitters who have had something unexpected occur on the job will have an inkling of how bewildered Kari must be.

The moral of the story: When a baby has developing superpowers, avoid the "campfire" flashcard!

I liked THE INCREDIBLES. It was a very good movie for the entire family and there is little to criticize about the film, though occasionally the film could have used a transfusion of more humor into the script. This is why I loved this DVD extra so much, as it consisted of some of the funniest computer generated scenes I have ever seen.

The short consists of a "behind the scenes" look at what happened when Jack-Jack began exhibiting signs of super powers while he was being watched by his nice but harried babysitter. It fills in the missing portion of the film between the arrival of the sitter and Jack-Jack coming to the rescue. A wonderful and not to be missed addition to an excellent film. Watch it and be prepared to have a great time.

This short shows what happen between Jack-Jack and Kari when she was hired to babysit him when the Incredibles were busy fighting Syndrome.

It flows perfectly with the movie. Only this shows what we didn't see during the movie. So anyways Dick Ricker the Parr family's lawyer who keeps their location safe from any danger. Questions Kari on what happen when she babysits Jack-Jack.

We get to see her get all confused and freaked out when Jack-Jack transforms and does unexpected stuff during the baby sitting.

It's very funny for a short film. It's highly recommended to those who want to know what happened between Kari and Jack-Jack.

You're able to see this short on the Incredibles DVD.
