Big Hero 6 is an immensely engaging and very successful animation. Animation, design and characterisation are all a deft blend of East and West. The storytelling is very much at the children audience level - all simple exposition and verbally signposted feelings - but the script is brisk and lively, there are three huge emotional wallops (think Up!) and the finale is surprisingly epic. The film also introduces its younger audience to a whole slew of nods to the history of sci-fi movies, from Metropolis and Blade Runner to Iron Man, Spiderman, the Star Treks and more. The titular gang is fun to watch, Baymax out-cutes the Minions and is very amusing, and the high standard of CG animation together with exemplary 3D and IMAX presentation all make Big Hero 6 a very enjoyable film.
