Big Hero 6- Back in the late 90's, when the first pixar movies started hitting the big screen, I remember saying wow this is really something. Nowadays, the computer generated movies blow those away. I mean, watch the first "Toy Story", and you will see what I mean how far they have come with the animated technology. I bring this up because the movie looked beautiful, a ton of eye humping candy to stimulate those senses.
The plot- Basically, a young boy named Hiro is super genius that is using his brains to hustle people in robot fighting. He is convinced by his older brother, to join the robotic school he is attending, and use his smarts to better society in some way. Hiro designs these tiny nanobots that respond to your every thought, through a head band. The tiny robots can take any form or shape, but when someone steals it for themselves to terrorize the city. Hiro and his friends set up to take the thief down by Hiro building super suits for each other them. Enter the Big Hero 6.
I thought the movie was decent, but nothing i would say I would watch again. I mean, if it was on TV i would watch, but I wouldn't go out of my way! Main reason is because, none of the characters, except for Baymaxx has that "it factor," where you are drawn into or make a connection to them. That's pretty rare for a Disney movie, but it does happen.. I mean there are some jokes, but mostly it was Baymaxx that got the big laughs through him being naive to human culture.
Final Verdict- 5.5/10- Characters were very forgettable, plot became cliche' and very obvious, and the movie was lacking something. I wouldn't see this in theaters.. save your cash and see it another way.
Thats it for now everyone, I am going to try to see another movie in the next couple of days. The school semester made it really rough, but the reviews must go on.. this is Phil Goes to the Movies, so you don't have to!
