Fixing years and ages.


* {{Narm}}: Despite being released 15 years later, the film picks up immediately where the first one ended. This gets very noticeable with the voice actors (mainly Bob and Helen themselves) who sound distinctly older. Craig T. Nelson especially was ''past 70'' when voicing Bob this time around, and it can get pretty distracting to hear his voice come out of the 40-something character. Oddly enough, Samuel L. Jackson was pushing 70 himself and still managed to avert this for Lucius, his voice sounding more or less the same as it did 15 years ago.

Not only is Evelyn Deavor too divisive a character, she doesn't even qualify as an Ensemble Darkhorse given that she's a major character (the Big Bad) in the movie.


** And then we have the real man (or woman) behind the man herself in [[spoiler: Evelyn Deavor]] whom, despite being seen as a highly intelligent but inferior villain than the incredibly popular Syndrome, has surely built up a decent amount of fan love over time years after the release of the sequel (though it's unclear of she'll ever be as popular as Syndrome). It helps that many people tend to find her quite attractive thanks to her EvilIsSexy look with her spandex suit and tend to ship her with Elastigirl. With many hoping she becomes a recurring antagonist (albeit one that has more development and better supervillain plots) in a third film.

* ContestedSequel: Some have criticized the film for having a plot similar to the [[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles first movie]] [[SwappedRoles but with Helen's and Bob's jobs reversed]], and saw the villain as an inferior replacement to the well-received Syndrome (though [[spoiler:Evelyn]] has a decent fanbase of her own built up, but nowhere near as much as Syndrome's). The ImmediateSequel status of this film didn't help either which contributed to it falling under SoOkayItsAverage as seen below. On the other hand, a significant number of fans see the film as [[EvenBetterSequel even better]], as the movie significantly develops Helen's job life (in contrast to Bob's job life in the first movie, which was mostly
covered in a montage) and Bob's home life was given significant focus as well.

* BrokenBase: Should the film have gone with Brad Bird's other idea and aged up the Parr Family like it [[WhatCouldHaveBeen was planned to do]]? Some are all for the idea and argue that it would've lead into far more interesting stories than the final film's ImmediateSequel approach—which was criticized for [[ItsTheSameNowItSucks not progressing the characters and plot enough]][[note]]This is despite the fact that the sequel does progress Violet and Dash considerably by giving them additional CharacterDevelopment and allowing them to be superheroes independently without Helen and Bob by saving them and the other Supers in the climax, on top of further developing Jack Jack and his powers, which were only barely touched upon in the first film's ending[[/note]]—and would’ve made perfect sense given the SequelGap However, others are against the idea of aging up the Parr Family and argues that the franchise would have completely lost all of it's timeless charm and feel with an older Parr Family (which would have been far harder to accept for younger kids which is the target demographic of the franchise and would have likely hurt the sequel's chances further) and that more stories can come from the Family as they are currently known as, helping out their side of the argument is that the sequel techinally started off right after a 3-month TimeSkip that ended the first film, thus the sequel starts with a TimeSkip already in place [[note]](also helping their case out further is that most animated sequels that do involve long DistantSequel gaps tend to be quite polarizing upon release depending on how the aging process is handled which actually hurts the fan ideas more in a case of BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor, also another point that helps their cause is that most fan ideas that do get used also tends to [[SturgeonsLaw be polarizing]] in their own right)[[/note]], and that it would have again copied another element from the first film that didn't need to be copied. And there are those that wouldn't mind a TakeAThirdOption by having the Family aged up a little bit (similar to the small TimeSkip as seen in ''WesternAnimation/FindingDory'') or have them fully aged up as an epilogue scene to end the series to satisfy both sides. [[note]]Though as seen under the WhatCouldHaveBeen section, aging up the Parr family would have been done as a last resort option as Bird's original plan for the sequel was to always focus directly on Helen right where the first film ended as far back after the first film's production had wrapped up as revealed in interviews leading up to the sequel's release. Had the story with Elastigirl not worked out at all, Bird would have gone with aging up the Parr Family in real time.[[/note]]

In the first film alone he had by far the ''highest body count'' [[note]]though a good chunk of those deaths were merely incidental on Dash's part[[/note]] and was shown to be fast enough to run on water and push Violet's Force Field around like a hamster ball. But in the 2nd movie, Dash was heavily OutOfFocus and he barely got a chance to show off his increased speed in the 3-month TimeSkip (unlike Violet who was shown to have TakenALevelInBadass with her powers during that same time), he was made even more useless once the 2nd film's climax hits (as being onboard the ''Everjust'' severely hampered his space to run around in which hurts him further) and he was made to watch Jack-Jack which he horridly fails at and he even gets kidnapped by the Screenslaved Screech, in which he had to be saved by Violet wielding Jack-Jack.

* ContestedSequel: Some have criticized the film for having a plot similar to the [[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles first movie]] [[SwappedRoles but with Helen's and Bob's jobs reversed]], and saw the villain as an inferior replacement to the well-received Syndrome (though Evelyn has a decent fanbase of her own built up, but nowhere near as much as Syndrome's). The ImmediateSequel status of this film didn't help either which contributed to it falling under SoOkayItsAverage as seen below.

** The movie confirms that there are superheroes based out of other countries (though there were some minior hints of this in the first film), this has high implications that there are young Supers out there that are just like Violet, Dash and Jack-Jack running around all over the world, no doubt this will lead to a Super-Foreign Exchange Program being developed.

** The film immediately opens up with a flashback showing Tony Rydinger discovering that Violet is a superhero. This potentially interesting plot line of Violet having a relationship with someone who knows about her powers is immediately squandered when Dicker erases Tony's memory of the event, as well as the memory of Tony ever meeting Violet in the first place in TheTeaser, resetting Tony back to the same SatelliteLoveInterest he was in the first movie. Especially annoying since in the brief moments where he keeps his memories, he confesses he still likes Violet and feels guilty over how he reacted. This was one of the main reasons the sequel proved to be a major disappointment to some fans, as Tony keeping his memory would have drastically altered Violet's entire story arc (and likewise would have fixed the main story) and thus improve her overall as a character while also giving Tony his own character arc and purpose in the sequel's story that would have made use of his increased presence (such as by becoming Violet's SecretKeeper and thus having to protect Violet's secret heroic identity at school and at his job).

** Dash was ultimately hit very ''hard'' with this in the sequel if not more worse than what his dad got. In the first film alone he had by far the ''highest body count'' and was shown to be fast enough to run on water and push Violet's Force Field around like a hamster ball. But in the 2nd movie, Dash was heavily OutOfFocus and barely got a chance to show off his increased speed in the 3-month TimeSkip (unlike Violet who was shown to have TakenALevelInBadass with her powers during that same time), he was made even more useless once the 2nd film's climax hits (as being onboard the ''Everjust'' severely hampered his space to run around on which nerfs him further) and he was made to watch Jack-Jack which he fails at and he gets kidnapped by the Screenslaved Screech, in which he had to be saved by Violet.

** And then we have the real man (or woman) behind the man herself in [[spoiler: Evelyn Deavor]] whom, despite being seen as a highly intelligent but inferior villain than the popular Syndrome, has surely built up a decent amount of fan love over time years after the release of the sequel. It helps that many people tend to find her quite attractive thanks to her EvilIsSexy look with her spandex suit and tend to ship her with Elastigirl. With many hoping she becomes a recurring antagonist (albeit one that has more development and better supervillain plots) in a third film.
