It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This was extremely awkward and with having no information until the end where it explains what the metaphor was, it still didn't leave you understanding 'what literally even'

The people who say that they didn't get Bao are, in my opinion, either unable to grasp metaphors or have no understanding of generational conflict in immigrant communities. Anyone who comes from an immigrant culture will recognize the tension between the loving but overprotective mother and the son to whom growing up means embracing all of the possibilities of the country he was born in. And I mean embracing literally; the fiancee, with her blond hair, white blouse and tartan skirt, is the image of the classic shiksa.It's a clever retelling of an old story, with a sweet reconciliation after the crisis. I agree with the commenters who say that very young children find it frightening, but then very young children should not be taken to Incredibles II simply because it is a cartoon. The target audience is kids old enough to identify with Dash or older. A seven or eight year old ought to be able to grasp both the mom who won't let you grow up and the idea that it was all a bad dream.

Pixart always gets what touchs people's empathy nerve. We all feel lonely and wanting for company, some finds video game, some finds pets.You know what my strongest though while watching incredible 2? Jac jac is so cute and i want to have a baby too.Think back to this short film. Emmm.

Very confusing and a bit disturbing showing this preceding a movie for (young) children. I mean; at the end she eats her own 'son'... ? Guess who's not having dumplings for a while...And why is dad absent for the most part? Mom's losing it and he shows no support at all?
