Details

On his wedding day to Helen Truax (aka Elastigirl), superhero Bob Parr (aka Mister Incredible) thwarts a civilian’s suicide attempt by tackling him through a skyscraper window. Bob then discovers the supervillain Bomb Voyage robbing the building, but is interrupted by his devout fan, Buddy Pine, who wants to be his sidekick. Bob rejects Buddy, and Voyage clips a bomb to Buddy’s cape; Bob manages to remove the bomb, but it destroys part of an elevated train track, forcing Bob to suddenly stop an oncoming train. After his marriage, Bob is sued for collateral damages by the suicidal civilians and injured train passengers. Similar cases created a negative public attitude towards superheroes, so the government started the Superhero Relocation Program, forcing all “supers” to use their powers in public and keep them hidden.

Fifteen years later, a now-overweight Bob lives in Metroville with Helen and their children, Violet, Dash, and baby Jack-Jack. Although he loves his family, Bob misses his superhero days and resents his mundane job as a claims adjuster as a vigilante with his best friend Lucius Best (aka Frozone). One day, Bob’s supervisor, Gilbert Hoof, stops him from preventing a robbery. Bob injures Huff in frustration and is fired as a result. That same day, a woman named Mirage secretly offers Bob a mission to subdue a giant “omnidroid” robot on Nomanisan Island. Bob succeeds in tricking the machine into draining its own power source. Reinvigorated by the action and the higher pay, Bob mends his relationship with his family, trains to get back in shape, and asks superhero costume designer Edna Mode to rip off the omnidroid made of his old suit. Wrongly assuming Helen knows about Bob’s new job, Edna makes new suits for the whole family.

Called back to Nomanisan, Bob discovers Mirage is working for Buddy, now calling himself “Syndrome”, disgusted by Bob’s rejection. Syndrome has gotten rich by inventing weapons that mimic superpowers. He continues to perfect the omnidroid by luring the supers until it kills them. Syndrome intends to send an Omnidroid to attack Metroville, then publicly defeat it through secret control, thereby gaining “hero” status. He then plans to sell his inventions to the world to make the word “super” irrelevant.

Helen visits Edna and finds out what Bob is up to. Edna activates a beacon built into the suit to locate Bob, inadvertently capturing Bob while infiltrating the Syndrome base. Helen borrows a private plane to fly to Nomanisan; Violet and Dash walk away, leaving Jack-Jack with the babysitter. Knowing there are children on the plane, Syndrome shoots it down with missiles, but Helen and the children survive and reach the island. Frustrated by the syndrome’s helplessness, Mirage releases Bob and informs him of her family’s survival. Syndrome’s guards follow Dash and Violet, who fight them off with their powers and reunite with their parents. Syndrome captures the family and follows the Omnidroid to Metroville. Paras escapes to Metroville with Mirage’s help.

Syndrome’s plan backfires when the omnidroid’s artificial intelligence recognizes that Syndrome’s remote control wristband is a threat; It shoots Syndrome’s remote, who falls unconscious while trying to escape. Perseus and Lucius fight the Omnidroid; Helen and the kids retrieve the remote control, allowing Bob to destroy the robot’s power source. Perseus and Lucius are cheered by the public just as Syndrome wakes up to see their victory. Back home, the Parrs find Syndrome to take revenge by kidnapping Jack-Jack to raise as a sidekick. As Syndrome flies away, Jack-Jack’s superpowers are revealed and he escapes from Syndrome. Helen rescues the fallen child, and Bob crashes his car into the plane of the syndrome; Syndrome sucks in the plane’s engine, killing him and the plane explodes.

Three months later, Pars witnesses the arrival of the supervillain The Underminer. They put on their masks and suits, ready to face new threats.
