Film Thursday: BIG HERO 6.

When was the last time you went to the Cinema? Ok when was the last time you went to the cinema to see a family friendly motion picture? Ok... when was the last time you watch a family friendly motion picture that made you laugh one minute and blub the next? For me it was Big Hero 6.

Now reviewing Big Hero 6 without spoilers is without a doubt a huge challenge. But I will endevor to update the review with regards to the plot at a later date to make it fair to everybody.

I think the first thing I must touch upon is the movie's song. Now I'm not going to lie, when I heard Fall Out Boy was going to do a song for a Disney film, the brows were raged. I am a huge fan of Fall Out Boy but I didn't think that a band that sang about one night stands was appropriate. Then I heard the song in the film and I ate my words. Now I am happily sat typing this review whilst playing this song on full blast. No, this songs, alongside the soundtrack in general is absoultly fantastic and Fall Out Boy, the lyrics do this song so much justice.  If you don't believe me then feel free to listen to the official video below ( with thanks to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9PxOanFjxQ)

Plotwise it is very cleverly done. There are moments where you will laugh. Then you'll find yourself 10 minutes crying your eyes. Also the Red Herring's in relation to the villain are absolutely brilliantly done. Trust me, neither me or my friend saw the villain's identity coming.

I think the reason most people enjoy the film though is because of the enviroments. I can personally say that this is one of the most gorgeous 3D environments in animation. I reference to the picture of Sanfransokyo below.

The characters are also very well established and each one has a different back story. I personally like how each of the Big Hero 6's super powers refers back to their projects at the start of the film.

So my overall opinion. SEE THIS FILM. Even if you think Disney is the equivalent of satan, see this film. I would even push to say it is better than Frozen and if it isn't nominated for the Oscars next year, I want answers.
