Review of Big Hero 6 (2014) by Jacob — 09 Jun 2015

Disney has followed up Frozen with another amazing film. On paper Big Hero 6 may seem like an Iron Giant or Terminator: 2 Judgement Day ripoff and while there are similarities and clichés throughout the film the main characters their relationship with each other along with the story are well realized in a way that makes it easy to overlook those details.

Big Hero 6 is a great film that provides Marvel fans, Disney fans, and movie fans in general with a great experience rivaling that of a Pixar film. The supporting characters could use some development but with any luck this film will get a sequel that will explore them even more.

Until then I will continue to watch this film as I eagerly await the next Disney film as this studio has regained the magic they had in the 90s. Hopefully Pixar can pick up the slack with Inside Out but regardless its glad to know there is animation studio on top of their game again! There is a short at the beginning of the film called Feast its not the best short ever made lacking the awe of Paperman but it is charming.

Just realized this year there are three animated films that I loved, which makes this one of the best years for animation ever.
