Big Hero 6

I had some suspicion that it could be a good animated movie, and that suspicion ended up being confirmed. Besides the fact that there are actually superheroes in it, it is wonderfully action-packed, there are inventions and robots, and especially one specific robotic caretaker. Thanks to these characters, the film is incredibly entertaining, not to mention how amazing the animation is at times. Disney did it again. (14/01/2015)

It's been a long time since I've given out four five-star ratings in one week, but Big Hero 6 is guilty pleasure as fuck and every guy's wet dream!! The visuals are incredibly good and at times I felt like I wasn't watching an animated film. All the high tech awesomeness was a joy to watch and I wouldn't have minded if the whole movie had been about robot wrestling, but even the Avengers choice was welcome with a villain that even Marvel wouldn't be ashamed of. All the good characters are likeable and I want Baymax at home! The awesome quips from Fred are pretty cool as well. Perfect entertainment that is both touching and twisted! 90% (23/02/2017)

The whole time I was watching the movie I kept thinking whether the movie was actually for kids. One boy dies, everybody speaks in a super bad-ass way and then I realized that todayʼs kids are probably different; I am not excusing the death but the bad-ass language. It was all based on these two points and I have to admit that the only cute thing was the inflatable robot and that’s before he learned kung-fu and before the Japanese genius put him in the aluminum suit. At the same time, I don’t think I really laughed watching this, especially when compared to Zootopia, for example. So, even though Big Hero 6 is not a bad cartoon, there is still a lot of negatives that bumped the final score down to three stars. (16/01/2017)

Avengers meets StarGate in a Disney animated version. In some places, the film quotes scenes of other films so blatantly (e.g. Iron Man at the end of Avengers and Hiro at the end of Big Hero 6) that it can no longer be considered a rip-off, but rather a spoof. I’m sure there’ll be people bothered by the overall lack of originality and creativity, I can see them already, but that doesn’t bother me much in animated films. It’s cute, entertaining, funny, even a little emotional, which is enough for an animated comic-book fairy-tale. (14/01/2015)

Better than Captain America :))) The story of Big Hero Six doesn’t bother with new themes or new ways to devastate New York, its mission is to cleverly recycle old motifs, adding wit and possibly adapting them to a younger audience. The film is thus full of hidden or surprising references, direct or slightly adapted quotes from live-action comics adaptations, and finally, likeable characters who manage to perfectly combine Marvel with pure Disney antics. The climax is dull and the second half doesn't have as many jokes and surprises as the first, but it's still a very cool affair, definitely better than the second Despicable Me. 80% (01/03/2015)
