+1 I agree with you; that wasn't the message I took from the movie. The villain doesn't usually spout the moral of the movie, either, so I'm not sure why some people are taking that statement as the central message.

It wasn't just Syndrome who said it - Dash said it too, but again, I don't think that was the message. Dash was angry and frustrated about how he couldn't do what he wanted, and was lashing out.

I agree that the message is that you shouldn't have to hide what you are and should use your talents for the best.

It was the mother who said it to Dash. The villain just repeated it.

Yeah... if there's a big generic message in that movie, it's more along the lines of "Don't hide your light under a bushel." But, I'd say the movie is as much about striking the right balance between personal freedom and responsibility as anything. At the end of the day, Bob and Helen are the main characters. Bob's having a midlife crisis and Helen's losing sight of her own goals and talents while trying to keep the family together. By the end of the movie, they learn to be true to themselves and keep sight of what's important to them.
