Very funny and enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (25 November 2014)

The movie tells about Hiro Yamada, a genius student in the city of San Fransokyo. His brother Tadashi, also a genius already built a 'personal nurse' robot Baymax, manages to persuade him to join the "Nerd School" SFIT college with Tadashi's friends, Honey Lemon, Wasabi, Gogo and Fred. At SFIT's tech fair, the Hiro amazes everybody, even the great Professor Callaghan with his micro-bots invention. Commanded telepathically through a radio transmitter, the micro-bots can be erected to structures very fast. Hiro gains an entrance to SFIT with it. But later that night there's a fire in the SFIT hall. Tadashi goes in to save Callaghan but the building explodes. Hiro drowns in sorrow of Tadashi's death, but his shout of pain initiates Baymax's nurse protocol. Hiro finds last remaining micro-bot trying to find it's way to rest of the micro-bots, which is quite impossible since the other micro-bots should have perished in the SFIT fire.
To help Hiro feel better Baymax then follows the micro-bot, with Hiro tailing behind. They find that someone is manufacturing a lot more of micro-bots. Soon a man in a kabuki mask uses the micro-bots to attack them. Hiro and Baymax narrowly escape. Hiro then creates some combat alterations to Baymax and goes back to the warehouse where they met the villain. The four Tadashi's friends come after Baymax contacted them, and again they escape the kabuki mask villain. The four of them eventually agree to help Hiro to find the villain, who's suspected at setting the fire at SFIT. Hiro also make combat costumes for him and his friends. The upgraded sensors and Baymax finds the villain's whereabouts, in an island. Lurking about the island, the six find a video of Alistair Krei, the tech mogul whose offer Hiro denied at the tech fair, testing a teleportation machine that goes wrong. The villain appears and attacks the six, but their cooperation manages to knock his mask off, revealing Callaghan inside it. Hiro goes into a vengeful rage, taking out Tadashi's nurse commands chip off Baymax, leaving only Hiro's combat chip in him.
The five manages to disrupt Baymax and put Tadashi's chip back in. Hiro leaves with Baymax, and then he repairs his broken sensor. But Baymax denied Hiro access to take out the nurse chip again and shows Hiro videos of Tadashi building Baymax, which then sobers Hiro out of his rage. The six then goes after Callaghan, whose now targeting Krei. They manage to lure Callaghan's micro-bots into the teleportation portal Callaghan built himself. But the portal is still engaged and sucking things up. Baymax's sensor picked up a woman, Callaghan's daughter from the video, still alive in the portal. Hiro and Baymax go inside it and manage to locate the girl. But they get stuck by building debris, damaging Baymax's jets. After Hiro says Baymax's shut down protocol key phrase, Baymax sacrifices himself by shooting his fist that's propelling the girl's pod with Hiro on it to safety. The five are sad that Baymax didn't make it. But then Hiro finds Tadashi's nurse chip on the fist, and rebuild Baymax.
The story is nicely developed to a good balance. Being of a Marvel superhero origin which is now a trending theme for movies, but being developed as an animation which largely associated with kids' movies, the story can really grasp the best of both worlds. The story gets to be nicely emotional but not to the point of making the viewers cry. The movie also can be a nice expansion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, although I should also say that it's intelligently positioned as remote as there's still possibilities to link the live action movies with this movie.
The movie is also hilariously funny, I must add. It seems like the creators of Frozen and Wreck-it Ralph can really have a larger space in this movie to make it into a funny and enjoyable movie. The comedic moments are spread evenly all through the entire duration of the movie, mainly centered on Baymax and his reactions to the world and Hiro's interactions with him. This movie makes even the supposedly dangerous moments into very funny and laughable.
The voice acting quality is very nice. Scott Adsit really did his job well that Baymax can really be that funny and seemingly without knowing that he is. Ryan Potter nicely fills in the shoes for the main character, capturing all Hiro's emotions into the voices. All other actors and actresses are also of top end list of the Hollywood roster of younger talents, which makes the voice acting quite a completion for this movie.
For me, a 7 out of 10 score for Bg Hero 6 (2014) is a suiting rating. It is very enjoyably entertaining with quite a solid story and very funny scenes all around it. It also retains much of the Marvel superhero movies' trademark signatures.
