Fun to watch but that is all the film has going for it.

Rating: 3/10 (27 November 2014)

Big Hero 6 has a lot to live up to, after last year's crazy phenomenon Frozen.
Sadly, this film did not live up to previous Walt Disney Animation works.
Big Hero 6 has its cute and fun moments but for being something of substance it lacks many qualities for being a great film.
The weak points are the story and characters. Hiro, Tadashi, and Baymax get plenty of development but they are the only ones. The rest of the group of high-tech nerds, get little development and sadly, are just all clichés: Tough girl, comic nerd, Totally Spies blonde girl ripoff.
I am a nerd, geek, comic book loving, anime loving, and super hero loving girl. I hear a lot of reviewers give this film high rates because they say they are nerds/geeks and they love that nostalgia/culture thrown in the film. But... just because you like nerdy things does not mean you have to like all those things. I find it odd and impossible that one person categorized as nerd/geek has to automatically like Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek, etc. I myself love Marvel and Who but I have grown tired of Star Wars and am no fan of Harry Potter. People keep getting upset when I say something negative about this film, yet they never give me a good reason as to why they feel this film is so amazing.
A few friend of mine love Disney but said they thought Big Hero 6 was cute or fun, but don't see owning it anytime soon. And that is what this movie is. A good one shot viewing and not a long lasting one.
This film just did not get to me. I felt it was like every other "hero" film. The story was simple and just went all over the place at times, with a few "plot holes" such as the ending with Baymax and the whole villain thing.
In the end, Big Hero 6 was entertaining to watch, like Transformers but it also is as much an actual film as Transformers, meaning, all pretty effects and no real story or characters to look up to.
Sorry but Disney dropped the ball this time. I applaud them trying something new, but, I feel as years go on this will be just a cute little film and that is it. Nothing truly remarkable about it.
And I did watch the whole film, I understood it, I wasn't bored or having ADD moments as some defenders I know have whined about.
I like movies. I know what I like and dislike. I study film and even help friends make some at school. I prefer story, plot, and character over CGI, explosions, and unoriginal ideas.
The cameo was cool. I admit that.
