This got very irksome and tiring after the 3rd episode. How can all the Wheelers live such long lives? Hello! The average life expectancy back then was 40, not 90 to 100. Sure, Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin lived into their 80's, but they are exceptions. I just couldn't stand watching the inconsistencies of time. And Jacob really should have died out there on the prairie. The man was well over his prime. He would have got Gangrene or been killed by a bear or something. Anything so that he was not in the last 3 episodes!! Did anyone do the math? Even if he was only 16 in 1823, he would have been 83-84 in the last episode. Did anyone else find this a bit far fetched? He looked like a young man of 60, and how would he have made the trip back to the west????? Oh, shows like this irritate me. And Clara was pregnant again in her late 30's? Yeah, that is historically realistic!

The last episode was ho hum and over done. It completely lacked a story, especially when all the characters were played by different actors. It was so hard to remember who was who. I feel like I watched the whole series only to be disappointed. Why is it that whenever they claim to make a series telling two sides of the story, it always feels one-sided? And we never find out what happens to most of the characters. They are introduced then drop off the face of the earth. Annoying! This had the potential to be great. It included way too many story lines to be believable and depicted Native Americans like every other movie out their except that they spoke Lakota. WOW.... Don't waste your time... really. OR just watch the first 3 and forget the other 3 exist. But even then, you'll just be irritated by the whole thing.

Um, this was suppose to be a kid's film? Not one iota of it was a kid's film in my book. This is a truly adult movie, so no wonder it has had record sales. You could pop this movie in, and the kids will be asleep faster than the plot line can move forward. Obviously Brad Bird dreamed the Incredibles after watching X-men a thousand times. Did anyone else notice the cunning similarities? Well, watch X-men and you will see what I mean. I was waiting for the movie to be over after the first thirty minutes! I can not believe all the raving reviews I have read! They all must be written by teenagers and older adults still in love with superheros and fantasy lands, where role playing leads their life. The Incredibles is in league of its own as far as computer animation goes! The characters and settings look incredibly real. But as for the plot, you can not compare The Incredibles to Finding Nemo or Toy Story. That is asinine!

I do not recommend this movie for little kids! This is clearly an animated X-men!!
