A heartfelt story & memorable characters makes this film a delight for any age

Big Hero 6 is a movie that intrigues me on a lot of levels. It ought to have everything going for it. It's based on a Marvel property (which I didn't even realize until I was seeing the movie (I can't say what gave it away (okay, I could, but that would be a spoiler))). That said, it's based on a Marvel property that I'm not actually familiar with so this is the rare adaptation (from a comic book) that I can see without having a picture in my mind of how it ought to be. Of course, I looked up the comic when I got home, and the path of adaptation they chose for this one is really interesting. The comic is loosely set in the X-Men side of Marvel so has the full spectrum of mutants and all of that. The movie has removed everything that isn't technology based or transformed those things into something that is technology based. Basically, they made Big Hero fit into a slightly futuristic world in which people are still just people. And they did a really good job of it, too. The movie does a great job with the exposition of the story. It's so typical of movies these days to just skip the exposition entirely, so I really appreciate it when a film takes the time to provide a foundation for the story they want to tell. Without having a way to check the timing on the movie, I'm going to guess the first half hour or so is all exposition. Let me re-say what I just said before: I like that! Visually, the movie is incredible. Not just that it has great animation, but it has a great style. Actually, it looks a lot like The Incredibles, but that's not surprising considering that John Lasseter produced the movie. Plus, it has the best drunken robot scene ever. Okay, that may not be surprising since it's probably the only drunken robot scene ever, but, still, it's hilarious. The voice acting is adequate. There's nothing there to make any of it stand out except, maybe, for Scott Adsit, but it's hard to tell how much of that is him and how much is manipulation of his voice to make it work for Baymax. The villain has a really cool look. That's all I'm saying about that. I mean, I'd be freaked out to have someone like that coming after me. And the side characters work, too. It has all the ingredients it needs for me to love it. But I didn't. Don't get me wrong; I really liked it; I just didn't love it. And I can't really tell you why other than that I saw the movie playing out the way it was going to go well before it got there. However, that was an interesting experience in-and-of itself, because my kids made the logic jumps the movie wanted them to make so that they would be surprised by what was actually going on when it was revealed at the end. I had to bite my tongue not to spoil it for them. For instance, at one point, my son said something about who the bad guy was, and I almost said, "No, that's not who it is," but I managed to catch myself. I'm not really sure if that was the problem or not. It might also have been that the main emotional punch of the movie happens toward the beginning, so I had no catharsis at the end. Really, it's not that important. It's a really good movie. It's great, even. It's just not excellent. It's not a movie I left the theater wanting to see again, which, for me, is the hallmark of an excellent film. The short film at the beginning, though, that was awesome, and I'd love to see that again.

It's a blast! Full of all emotions and fallout boy is on the soundtrack!

Took in a first-time viewing with this purchase, and it quite the delight. The twist was super obvious, but the cast of characters, especially big fluffy Baymax, kept things entertaining. Big Hero 6, I dub thee a worthy blind-buy.

This easily is the best animated superhero movie besides incredibles 1 and 2.

The artwork on the steelbook looks amazing and is a must have for fans.

Disney movies seem to have a theme of loss in movies like this, The Good Dinosaur, Bambi, among others. The hero of the story, Hiro, is an unambitious teen with aspirations of illegal bot fighting. His plans change after an early plot development that puts him in the position of choosing to do something after a loss. The characters he meets up with are fun and the movie as a whole is well done. The visuals look good with this upconverted 2K release with HDR10, though the included Movies Anywhere code also includes a more premium Dolby Vision option. It's just too bad that Disney has chosen this path where Dolby Vision isn't actually on the disc, but left to the compressed video stream. Still in all I'm happy with my purchase and the movie looks great on the big screen... at home that is.

This 4K looks really good, and is a nice addition to the Disney 4Ks.

Great movie to watch with the family, I would definitely recommend!
