By far the best part of THE INCREDIBLES DVD package

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.
