Coolin's M Great movie loved the character build up and storyline Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Kevin P A decent collaboration between Disney Animation and Marvel Studios. The action scenes and art design are pretty strong. Baymax is adorable and easily steals the show. However, The rest of the characters are fairly unmemorable (not exactly bland, but not exactly enticing either). The tragedy with the brother tugs at your heartstrings, but it's sadly undermined by the twist villain's missed potential where his feelings on all of this go completely out of character just for the sake of evil instead of applying more nuance and humanity to make him more of a misguided figure than true villain given the setup they gave us. It makes the climax messy and really bogs down an otherwise entertaining movie. I still enjoy the movie, but it feels like it needed another rewrite to really let these characters leap from the page (aside from you Baymax, you're perfect!). Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Senan L Best Pixar in the world Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review Carson C One of my favorite animated movies of all time Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Jay W I will preface this review with acknowledging a bone I have to pick with this movie. This movie won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, and it won it the same year films like "Song of the Sea", "Tale of Princess Kaguya", "Box Trolls", "How to Train your Dragon 2" and "The Lego Movie". The film is not better than any of those films. I will try my best not to hold the decision against the movie but recognize that I might be more critical on it than other films. I will start with the positives. I like how this film demonstrates how cool science can be. The heroes of this film spend a lot of time in the lab, but none of them are portrayed as dorks or nerds, they are cool, confident and popular people. I think that can be a positive influence on children watching the film. The music, particularly with the training montage, is really good. Likewise, the animation is impressive. The setting of San Fransokyo is very visually interesting. The characters and location set up in this film do have potential. The potential is capitalized more in the follow up animated TV series. On the negative side, this movie follows all the usual beats you'd expect from a movie like this. It does the usual kids' movie stuff and the usual superhero movie stuff. One thing that they do, our main character, Hiro, keeps his robot, Baymax, a secret from his mom. Why? The mom knows that Hiro and his brother make robots, why does the robot need to be a secret? The reveal of the villain, which they build up as if it's a big surprise, it so obvious, even the 4-year old who watched it with me knew who it was going to be. The movie than concludes with a big ol' sky beam and a wave of faceless drones the heroes can smash through with no moral implications. All the same old superhero stuff that we have no shortage of right now or when this came out. Heck, 2014 had 3 better Marvel Superhero movies come out as well. "Guardians of the Galaxy", "Winter Soldier" and "X-Men: Days of Future Past". The only thing this brings to the table is the fact its animated. But, if you're a kid and haven't seen a dozen different movies that follow these same beats, you'll likely enjoy this. The action is well animated, the jokes are well timed, the music is good, and the characters can be a lot of fun. That's why it's "Big Hero 6 out of 10". Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Charlie M Fun and memorable superheroes, and a well paced family movie with lots to enjoy.
