This film is very beautifully animated and has a very entertaining story surrounding. I like how this film felt kind of like a mesh between Marvel and Disney films and it worked remarkably well. I love the whole city, San Fransokyo, since it combines both San Francisco with Tokyo; it worked as a very cool environment for the film. The characters were a fun bunch, I especially liked Baymax, he was very funny and he is one of the biggest reasons why this film is excellent. The whole group of scientists, that befriend Hiro, is also a cool group of people. Some of them fall under a few cliches but they are still fun to be around (their whole "lab" room was also cool, I liked the inventions they were creating). The story is pretty cool even if it was a bit predictable at times; seriously, don't have your expectations too high for the movie's villain. Despite, some minor problems, this film has a great story, there are even some pretty emotional scenes in this film I must say. This film is great and probably one of Disney's best films in a while. I also wan't to congratulate this film on winning the Oscar for Best Animated Film of 2014, even though I kinda liked The Lego Movie and How to Train Your Dragon 2 a bit better (sorry).… Expand

The great film, animation is good, the story is cool and different, is not that cliche that has in some films from Disney, the first I found a little weak, but then the film tip far more engaging.

There has been so many superhero movies lately that it seems like I don’t even recall which superhero movie that is not related to Marvel Cinematic Universe nor to DC Cinematic Universe nor to 20th Century Fox’s X-Men Universe. To see anotherThere has been so many superhero movies lately that it seems like I don’t even recall which superhero movie that is not related to Marvel Cinematic Universe nor to DC Cinematic Universe nor to 20th Century Fox’s X-Men Universe. To see another superhero movie that consists of entirely new superheroes and that is not related to either of the three universes is quite refreshing, which is ironic since this movie is actually from an old Marvel comic series.

I liked how the Disney twist works with a Marvel property. I see that “Disney twist” a lot of times in previous Disney movies but for some reason it never fails to make me bored and it always remains fresh especially on based from a Marvel comic series.

I liked how diverse the main characters are in this movie. What I mean diverse does not mean “six white dudes, one white girl and one black dude”, I mean diverse as in “two Asians, one Brazilian woman, one black guy and one white guy (and one robot)”. This is the kind of diversity that isn’t the “shove down into your throats” kind and more of a natural kind of diversity. I want to see more movies with this pattern and not with the “six white dudes, one white girl and one black dude” kind of diversity.

I also liked how this movie dealt with death that it is almost traumatic and very life-like. If I were a kid, I would be traumatized about what happened. As a teenager, I am still traumatized what just happened in the movie because it was too real for me.

The character development of the main character Hiro is my favorite part of this movie as well as the growing bond between Hiro and the robot Baymax. Speaking of character development, my only main problem with this movie is that the other main characters do not have much character development. Although this movie is all about Hiro and Baymax, it’s not easy for me to be okay with the other main characters not being fully-developed because they’re very interesting that it’s quite a missed opportunity for more development. Well, at least they got their moments on screen so that’s fine.

Big Hero 6 is worthy an Oscar win in my opinion and that is thanks to the fresh new set of likable diverse superheros that is introduced to the general audience as well as an excellent superhero movie plot based from a Marvel comic series with a never-tiring twist from Disney which combinations worked very well.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will admit it. At parts this movie made me cry, laugh, and feel for Hiro Hamada. But there was a sort of bad aftertaste to it for me. This mostly consisted of the sometimes cheesy dialogue made by characters, such as Gogo's "Woman UP!" during the final fight, or Wasabi's, well, overall dialogue period. I just don't really like Wasabi. Some plot twists were obvious, some plot tools were cheesy, such as when Hiro "randomly" decides he needs to upgrade everyone. I did like this a whole lot better than "Frozen", though. This movie got my emotions roiling in several spots, and laughing uncontrollably in others. I will say though, the scene where Hiro tells Baymax to destroy Callaghan, was one of the most powerful and shocking scenes in cartoon and possibly superhero movies in general for me. I watch this movie every night when I go to sleep, but I always stay up for that one part. But, besides some cheese, my biggest peeve was the ending. True, I didn't want Baymax to die, but when he did, I really felt that this was a fitting end to Big Hero 6. When it came down to it, that is what Baymax was built for: To Save Lives. So when it was revealed that he was brought back, I was kind of disappointed.
After all that Hiro had been through, with his parents dying at 4, Tadashi dying after Hiro succeeded, Hiro finding out Professor Callaghan hadn't bothered to save Tadashi in the fire and that he was the person who stole his microbots, and almost killing Callaghan, and finally with Baymax dying, I felt that the movie should have kept Baymax dead, because it was too happy. Nothing in this world would end that happily, and when you think about it, it doesn't usually end happily there. And with Baymax being brought back in the end, wouldn't that basically just erase the meaning of his sacrifice.
Also, how did the fire start? And how did the group find Hiro and Baymax at the dock? I realize Baymax contacted them, but HOW WOULD THEY KNOW WHERE THEY WERE SEVERAL HOURS AFTER THEY HAD BEEN CONTACTED? Those things also annoyed me. Maybe the fire will be answered in the inevitable sequel or short.… Expand

Big Hero 6 is great. A must see that will make you laugh out loud and keep you on the edge (even though you know how it will end.) Though one of the major plot twists was predictable from the villain's cue. It did not take away from a good story.

This plot was darker than most Disney plots, which was a welcomed change. Their protagonist, Hiro (Hero), was the most complex Disney character since Maleficent. Dealing with lost is not easy, but it helps when you have a lovable character like BayMax, who is strangely reminiscent of Wall-E.

I will watch this movie again because it is very enjoyable and flows effortlessly. It was clever on all angles and a joy to watch. The movie does fall into the trap of the corny that we've come to expect from Disney, but it does not take away from the overall movie.

A sequel of this movie would be great, surrounding Hiro's parents and I would not be surprised if Disney is already working on it. Family was a huge theme and it was handled very well. All in all, a great movie.… Expand

Just like every year Disney always brings out films that are mostly good or adorable, and a long comes Big Hero 6 and this movie is on the level of adorable, but not that close to brilliant.

The animation in this movie was so colorful and so gorgeous to look at that my eyes couldn't get enough of it. The character's were funny and pretty awesome, even Baymax which has to be the most adorable and the most lovable character I've seen on the big screen. The action scenes were really well shot and enjoyable to watch.

The ending to this movie dragged a little bit for me. If they ended the movie about a couple minutes ago I could have given it a bigger rating, but the ending kept going and felt like it went on and on.

Big Hero 6 is a entertaining movie with beautiful animation and a solid story line.… Expand

Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Finding Nemo, WALL-E, Up, and Wreck It Ralph, what do they all have in common? They are all masterpieces, and Big Hero 6 is the next big thing, and you know why?

They are all masterpieces, and Big Hero 6 is the next big thing, and you know why? It's because Disney incorporated a story from another universe, Marvel, that's right, Big Hero 6 came from Marvel, and that is one of the reasons that makes this film great. The characters make up for the amazing acting and the real emotions coming from them, the animation is so alive and so bright even when the picture is very dark. But the real reason that this film is the next big Disney masterpiece? It's the inspirational messages that the film presents, and in this film the message falls under the lines of vengeance does not become received by revenge, and learning to let go is a hard thing but to some people, it a natural instinct, and wherever you go, take some friends with you, because you could be something bigger and stronger when you have help, sure in the end some people don't make it but that right there is the message, staying strong in the face of challenges, that's what makes Big Hero 6 a masterpiece.… Expand

This movie was completely amazing. Do not listen to anybody who tells you about plot holes and clichés, they are way too focused on looking for mistakes than just relaxing and enjoying the movie. And what a movie it was. If you haven't seen it, I strongly advise you to watch it. RIGHT NOW. The most phenomenal movie I have ever had the joy to witness. Here are a few reasons why:
The plot. The plot was touching, in some places amusing, exciting, gripping and perfectly sweet.
The characters. The side characters, although not as good as the main ones, where awesome as well. Gogo was my favourite, sassy and adventurous, but Honey, Wasabi and Fred were good too- I loved Wasabi's scream in one part of the movie
The emotions- you will feel so many emotions in this movie. You will feel amazed, delighted, scared, excited, happy and sad. It's a perfect blend. I was gasping with shock and fear one minute, crying my eyes out the next, then smiling, then gripping my seat in excitement.
Hiro Hamada- I love this character beyond belief. Baymax gets the most attention, but Hiro is sweet, cute, funny, intelligent, slightly cocky, and just... ah. I love him and have about twenty pictures of him on my phone. He looks adorable, with that gorgeous messy black hair and those big brown eyes and that cheeky, cute face, but underneath he is extremely brave, and very intelligent; he's a genius, but doesn't seem to realise it. He manages to build superhero costumes and powers for all his friends, and never brags or shows off about it. You will fall in love with Hiro within minutes. At the start, when he says "Hiro... Hiro Hamada", he has the sweetest, shyest way of saying it. Love him to pieces.
I've watched the movie about seven times- last week I watched it every single day. In never gets boring; in fact, it gets more exciting! I strongly advise you not to blink because you don't want to miss a second of it :D Also there's no real point in getting popcorn or anything; once I had a can of lemondade when I was watching it. I sipped from the can in the first couple of minutes, then forget all about it because the movie was so... so.... so spectacular..
Please watch this film, it's perfect and beautiful, by far the best movie I have ever seen in my life!… Expand

But it is still very good and one of their best easily since the Renaissance. It did feel a little rushed at times and felt like it tried to do a little too much in the storytelling, as a result some ideas that were introduced like the science-is-good message gets lost. If it slowed down and explored a little less areas it would have improved things. The villain felt underdeveloped and his reveal came over as very obvious and forced as well.

However, the animation is outstanding with lots of rich colours and textures, backgrounds that are incredibly detailed and sweet(but not in a cloying way) character designs. One of the best-looking recent Disney films definitely. The catchy and upbeat yet atmospheric and emotion-filled soundtrack and smart script are other things to like, as are the brisk(when not rushed) pacing and rousing if not exactly inventive action. While the story is not flawless, on the most part it's still a winner. Whatever originality it may lack, it more than compensates for that with fun and heart. There are plenty of funny moments(i.e. Stan Lee), and of the laugh-out-loud witty kind and even better is the emotional impact Big Hero 6 has. The brother-brother relationship is handled very affectingly, like between Anna and Elsa in Frozen it was Disney trying to explore a different kind of relationship than they did before and it succeeds in that respect.

Sure Big Hero 6 sometimes takes a dark tone but not in a heavy or inappropriate way, there's no reason why anybody should be disturbed by that. The characters are not the most developed ones there ever were and as said more should have been done with the villain, but they're still engaging. Hiro is a very flawed but still likable main protagonist and his relationship between brother Tadashi is beautifully done. The most memorable character for me though was Baymax, he has to be one of Disney's most adorable characters, along with Maximus(Tangled) and Sven(Frozen) he has one of their cutest since the Renaissance. As well as being beautifully designed he displays a lot of laughs and a wide range of emotions, literally the film's heart and soul. The voice work from all(I just wish that James Cromwell had more to do) is very good, with particular mention going to Scott Adsit and his voice is a good match with Ryan Potter's deeply felt Hiro. All in all, not one of Disney's best but one of their better ones of the past 15 years. Haven't seen all the Best Animated Feature nominees but while this viewer did prefer How to Train Your Dragon 2 and the un-nominated Lego Movie they still felt that Big Hero 6 was still a good enough film to merit an Oscar nomination. 8/10 Bethany Cox… Expand

It is yet another example of how an obscure comic can be transformed into a really good movie. Baymax was a really good character and probably one of the most adorable robots in film. Hiro was a good character too because he was pretty complex. One of my favourite scenes was the one where Baymax is low on battery and he starts acting all drunk (but I feel they missed an opportunity to have him start singing "Daisy Bell" like HAL from "2001:a space odyssey") it's a very good movie, highly recommended to both superhero fans and Disney fans.… Expand

It seems that many people liked the film because they saw it as an original idea, I do not know but for me The Lego Movie is a great original idea, but this not. Bone is not bad, the only thing I am against is that Disney continues to use the cliche to Kill the parents of the protagonist and the character you loved you so much, it's something that we have seen in many Disney movies and I still do not understand why still do, maybe is its a formula of making movies or maybe is a betrayal of the studio, do not know. If they wanted to kill as Tadashi do it but at least let their parents are alive, not make them disappear from the film and say they are dead without explaining how they died. I also found it absurd that the reason for why is Callaghan the bad guy and the Baymax sacrifice, i know many people cry but I'm sorry, I'm think it's really silly and absurd, but the film is really bad? no, it could have been better? probably yes. There are many things that they liked me the film, I like animation, the characters, the comedy, the action scenes, the city San Fransokyo, the tecnology, the friendly relationship of Hiro and Baymax and the message. I just do like Minions as if it werent these 2 problems the film could have been better. In my opinion, Big Hero 6 is entertaining, Not the best of the year but is entertaining.

Its story is set in a fictional city that mixes a lot of Californian and Japanese environments, and revolves around the theme of high technology, robotics and, also, superheroes. Granted, none of this is original... over the last ten to fifteen years, there have been hundreds of films that have tackled these themes, but that doesn't detract from this animated production's merit.

The screenplay focuses on the figure of Hiro Hamada, a young teenager with a brilliant mind and enormous ability for science and technology. He makes his own robots to illegal fights until his brother, Tadashi, shows him the advanced laboratory where he studies, which awakens his desire to work there. For that, Hiro has to convince the director, Professor Robert Callaghan, thus inventing a series of micro-robots that fascinate everyone and everything with what they seem to allow. However, shortly after, the laboratory is mysteriously destroyed by a fire where Callaghan and Tadashi die, leaving Hiro completely aimless... until he finds Baymax, a prototype of a robot nurse that his brother used to work on.

Produced by Disney Studios, this film manages to bring the best of both worlds: on the one hand, it is a modern film, with very appealing themes for a new generation of children and young people, for whom technology is something fascinating, and on the other hand, it manages to match the studio's classics and live up to them, due to the visual beauty, the meticulous work and the ability to approach and work with complex themes, such as the loss of a dear family member or the desire for revenge.

Made with modern technological resources and massive doses of CGI, the film is a visual and graphic spectacle, providing us with excellent colors, good lighting, sharp drawings and a pleasant dose of realism. The film has almost no songs and the soundtrack is not really a strong point of the film, but the visual and narrative qualities make up for it, even if we take into account some specific weaknesses. In addition to all this, the film has very well conceived and developed characters, with personality and some joke, in addition to having a competent voice cast where we have names like Ryan Potter, Scott Adsit and James Cromwell.… Expand

After Disney's groundbreaking success of Frozen comes Big Hero 6 to once again captivate the attention of animation lovers and audiences alike. Even though Big Hero 6 provides a decent family-friendly storytelling that is not that grandeur or of a heft in narrative, still it manages to provide a satisfying and entertaining experience with it's wonderfully animated characters, touching sentimental moments, and nice soundtrack, especially the song "Immortals" from Fall Out Boy that adds excitement to a specific segment in the movie.

Baymax's design and characterization deserves credit. As a cute, huggable, and a rather naive medical robot in the story, it succeeds in luring audiences to love him and provides merchandising profit as a marketable product for the companies that produces this movie. Big Hero 6 distributes a huge heart and admirable relationships between the three main characters of the movie - Hiro, Baymax, and Tadashi. Their voice casts have done a splendid job notably Baymax. The other characters in the Big Hero 6 team are uniquely designed but lacks flavor on their characterization within the film.

Big Hero 6 also tends to be somewhat predictable, especially on the revelation of the villain. The villain is quite a lackluster character but still forms a huge part of something quite touching and unexpected in the ending segment of the film that deserves a very important attention from the viewers; don't dare to miss it.

Hiro's tale of lost and grief over his brother's demise as well as Baymax's is crafted realistically and shows to viewers that it haunts Hiro sorrowfully, and yields sincere emotional turmoil on those segments in the movie that is equally pleasing and heartwarming.

Overall, Big Hero 6 releases us from a (Disney product) "Frozen" mania experiences on year 2013, especially the addictive song Let It Go, because 2014's Big Hero 6 is an enjoyable animated flick filled with humor, heart, and an admirable Baymax character.

A very worthy Oscar nominee.

Rating: 8/10 -> 4/5 stars… Expand

I will say this movie is weak 8.

only weakness this has is the there is little focus why the others join the quest to find truth about the event that was the starter to this story.

"Big Hero 6" is not one of Walt Disney Animation Studios' best films - it was not even the best animated film of 2014 - but it deserves a lot of its prestige.

Segunda vez que veo la cinta y si es cierto que no me ha sorprendido como la primera, he vuelto a disfrutar como un niño pequeño.

En su día me dio mucho miedo embarcarme en Big Hero 6 con miedo a que Baymax fuera únicamente un recurso tierno y adorable para la película, pero me topé con un peliculón de animación con todas las letras y con un Disney sin nada que envidiar a Pixar. Big Hero 6 es una película muy redonda salvo por el villano que es cuanto menos predecible en muchas ocasiones. Animación, modelos e iluminación sobresalientes y una puesta en escena sublime. La trama no es muy complicada ni original, y Baymax hace que el humor hombre-máquina camufle de manera muy sagaz lo que te están realmente vendiendo que es un personaje tierno y mono que hay que querer a la fuerza, ganándose ese cariño con otros métodos. Es una increíble cinta de animación que cumple para todos los públicos y posiblemente la mejor desde la brutal Tangled (Enredados). Muy recomendable.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Big Hero 6 quizá no parezca del todo innovadora al reciclar conceptos de tramas pasadas como The Iron Giant, sin embargo, impone su propio carisma y situaciones únicas. Los personajes son muy interesantes y me gusta bastante como el protagonista y el robot van desarrollando su personalidad con el paso del tiempo, y como cooperan con sus amigos para poder atrapar al antagonista. Aunque si es cierto que hay situaciones algo forzadas y predecibles, así como falta de explicación de algunos elementos u situaciones. Un ejemplo puede ser, cerca del final de la película, cuando Hiro y Baymax pasan por el portal y llegan a un lugar desconocido donde tienen que rescatar a la hija de Robert Callaghan. Pues bien, nunca se hace mención de que es este lugar misterioso ni porque el portal había fallado en el pasado. O cuando supuestamente Robert quema todo el lugar donde se encontraba el hermano de Hiro para robar el dispositivo que el habia inventado... Como lo hace? No lo se. Errores minimos, pero que dirigen en parte la trama forzadamente. Pero bueno, quitando lo malo, es muy disfrutable y la recomiendo...… Expand

'Big Hero 6' is a new Disney classic with a Marvel twist. It's just so touching to see a robot have such a connection to humans like that. It's hilarious, emotional, and a fun movie for the family.

It's entertaining, heartwarming, exciting and funny, yet feels formulaic and bland at many points. The main characters are charismatic (Baymax is so cute), Hiro and Baymax develop a good chemistry and there's a heartbreaking reason behind it, but that's pretty much it. I can't say the animation is wonderful, which, sure the visual effects and the character animation are nice, but nothing too impressive or visually creative. Besides Hiro and Baymax all the other characters feel pretty much one-note, the villain is incredibly boring and once it's revealed who's behind that mask, that character starts to be a completely different character, with a solid motivation but with a plan that makes no sense. The superhero stuff is dull, generic and predictable and they never feel like a team, we never see a creative use of their powers or anything, that's why the actions scenes, at their core are reaaaaally bland. It has some emotional moments that actually work pretty well, but overall, don't save this movie to have some major flaws. Oh, and TJ Miller is in this movie, even when just voicing a character makes me want to punch him in the face, his character and line delivery is not funny and really annoying...Seriously, why do they keep casting this man in comedic roles!? Overall it's not a terrible movie but there's no denying that it's far from being a great movie, not even among the best of 2014 as that was a year of soooo many good animated movies (HTTYD 2, The Lego Movie, The Tale of the Princess Kaguya, Song of the Sea, and I can go on) and it's borderline infurating that this took the Oscar when literally any other of the nominees were far better movies in every aspect.… Expand

I will say this, Big Hero 6 is definitely worth watching! If you love Disney and Marvel, then this film is definitely for you. The tandem between the main character and robot is phenomenal and the bond between them made the core of this movie.

Simply amazing! The relationship between Hiro, the main character, and Baymax, the robotic nurse his brother left him, was special and entertaining. A great film, one of the best.

Fantastic and inventive superhero movie featuring a boy and his inflatable buddy. Really an enjoyable movie and much better than Frozen. This one exudes warmth and attention to detail while Frozen is vapid and cold. No pun intended.

When I was in 10th class and this movie was announced, I had no intention of seeing it, because I haven't seen the last 5 movies. That's how much I lived under a rock. By the time I learnt it doesn't have any prequels the movie was long goneWhen I was in 10th class and this movie was announced, I had no intention of seeing it, because I haven't seen the last 5 movies. That's how much I lived under a rock. By the time I learnt it doesn't have any prequels the movie was long gone from the theatres. So I finally watched the movie when it came on TV and damn this was a movie I'd have loved to see! Later on I got to know this is based on the Marvel comics, so technically this is the first Marvel movie I have ever watched (because I live under a rock, remember?).

The reason why I liked Big Hero 6 so much is because of Hiro Hamada. I have always been interested in robotics and have participated in a robot combat competition myself. Other than that I was preparing for JEE so I was as such very much into science. So right off the bat we begin from a relatable protagonist. Tadashi was also a very nicely made character. When both Hiro and Tadashi go to his college my focus was on how nicely they both talk. It actually feels like they are physically there, as Hiro looks around and Tadashi gives remarks as he gives Hiro a tour. When he shows Baymax to Hiro the part where Hiro thinks he just made a duct tape shows how natural their behaviour was. The other characters were also very interesting, although I don't remember their names anymore since I watched it so long ago.

The movie has all kinds of emotions that make it appealing to the audience. It will make one laugh, cry, angry, excited, scared and awestruck. The heroes, villains, story, plot twist, emotional conflicts and even the little details scattered throughout the movie have all been placed very well. Just watching the hero-villain fights didn't let me be seated. Baymax is so cute. The Stan Lee cameo in the end was also unique.

Overall I'd say the message of this movie is the most important aspect about this movie. A hero, who has lost his brother who was his only family and has gone into depression, is brought back to high hopes with the souvenir that his brother left him. His brother's friends were there to help him, his step-mother was supportive of him and overall everyone around him was always wanting the best for him. This is what finally allowed him to be the superhero. His emotional conflicts, whether he should entirely act on his feelings or take a calm and collected approach, whether he should kill someone or never harm a person, whether he should use his powers alone or assemble a team, all of this was in his hands. He did everything he hoped will make his brother proud.

I enjoyed this movie so much that later on I showed it to my sister and recommended to all the children I met. This is what a movie should be like. It has a good story, memorable people, character development, conflicts, emotions - everything needed to make a good story. These are the most grounded heroes I have seen in any animated movie. I really hope it gets a sequel. I can't have enough of it.… Expand
