Big Hero 6

Big Hero 6

Cineworld Bolton: 1st February 2015

If you leave this film and don't want a Baymax then there is something wrong!

I could honestly say Big Hero 6 is one of the most visually stunning animation films I have ever seen, simply stunning.  The futuristic San Fransokyo just looks amazing and during a "How to Train Your Dragon"-esque flyby sequence I was blown away at the vista's on offer in this digital world.

Big Hero 6 starts with tragedy, as do all Disney films and then the cute a cuddly side character comes into play.  It is a run of the mill story just done extremely well, the comedy is great and the action sequences perfectly paced.

After an accident at San Fransokyo University, Hiro is left in tragic circumstances, until he finds his brothers science project, Baymax.  Baymax is a medical droid/robot who has been designed to help people back to health.  Determining that Hiro is suffering from loss and mild depression, the only way to resolve this issue is to help him find the villain responsible for the fire that took his dreams and family.  With the help of his brothers work colleagues, Hiro form the Big Hero 6, a band of science geeks using their skills and Hiro's robotics knowledge to defeat the evil masked villain.

The heroes all trying to harness their skills is a great scene with Fred being a stand out for me.  The effects on Baymax are superb, every time you hear him walk the noise is just perfect and the characters are not all schmaltzy.

Disney is definitely onto a winner at the moment, and this is a great additional to their collection.
