Movie Notes: Big Hero 6 (2014)
There are movies that upon seeing the preview you would know that it would be a hit and Big Hero 6 is one of them.
It is understandable though given the elements of adventure, geeky cool stuff involving robotics, hilarious physical comedy and of course an adorable main character.
Big Hero 6 is produced by Walt Disney Animation Pictures and released by Walt Disney Pictures and is loosely based on a Marvel Comic Series with the same name.

The movie is set in the fictional city of San Fransokyo (which is a portmanteau of San Francisco and Tokyo). The main character Hiro Hamada is a robotics genius and after a fatal accident which kills his older brother Tadashi is left to deal with his loss.
One day Hiro accidentally activates Baymax (an adorable healthcare robot made by Tadashi) and one of his microbots. This eventually led to a series of events which concluded with a final battle with the man in the Kabuki mask together with his new found friends and allies.
The animators made an excellent job with the metropolis of San Fransokyo which composed of landmarks from San Francisco and Tokyo blended together.
What's so interesting about this movie is that it tackled in a very sensitive and simple way the concept of Great-ish Moviedeath, lost and grief. It was never sugarcoated and there were no surprising comebacks like Tadashi was alive after all. It presented acceptance as a part of the process of moving on.
The development of the characters throughout the movie and their portrayal of emotions was almost seamless. Hiro's blind fury and rage when he realized that his brother died for nothing and he took the Baymax's healthcare chip and ordered him to kill the guy in the Kabuki mask was a real raw reaction.
Baymax is a pivotal character that amuses the audience with his adorableness and at the same time makes you think in a "non-fatalistic" view the concepts of loss, grief and death.
Baymax's innocent question of whether killing would make him feel better was simple and profound especially during times of heightened emotions and we often forget to ask ourselves this.
Personally the movie is worth watching as it touches a very sensitive part of our being.
After seeing the movie, I wanted my own Baymax.
4/5 - Amazing Movie
