Big Hero 6

Well the last time I reviewed a movie that's currently out in theaters was a while ago, so I might as well review another one. This movie is based on a Marvel comic that I don't know anything about. So let's dive into the world where San Francisco and Tokyo are the same city with Big Hero 6.

We start in the city of San Franokyo where a boy name Hiro (Ryan Potter) built his own tiny robot and uses it to fight with other robots. However Bot Fighting is illegal and Hiro gets himself and his older brother Tadashi (Daniel Henney) arrested. Fortunately Hiro's Aunt Cass (Maya Rudolph) gets them out. They go back home where Tadashi takes Hiro to his school. Tadashi introduces Hiro to his friends with really weird nick names. He meets Go Go (Jamie Chung), Wasabi (Damon Waynans Jr.), Honey Lemon (Genesis Rodriguez) and Fred (T.J. Miller). Tadashi shows Hiro his project that he was working on. He made a robot named Baymax (Scott Adsit). He says that he made Baymax to be used as a robotic nurse and for him to seem harmless and huggable he is a giant balloon. Hiro meets the head of the school, Robert Callaghan (James Cromwell), and decides he wants to go to the school. Tadashi says that there will be a school fair and if Hiro can build an amazing invention for the fair he might get into the school. So Hiro spends all his time making a new invention. When it is time for the fair Hiro shows off his new invention Microbots, which are basically Nanobots, only you control them with your mind when wearing a special helmet. Everyone loves Hiro's invention and a man named Alistair Krei (Alan Tudyk) wants to buy the Microbots. Callaghan advises Hiro not to sell his invention.





Hiro and Tadashi are exited about Hiro's invention but all of a sudden the school bursts into flames and Callaghan is still inside and Tadashi goes to save Callaghan but dies in an explosion. Hiro is very upset about this and spends most of his time in his room. One day Hiro accidentally activates Baymax and they both find one of Hiro's Microbots that seems to be trying to go somewhere. They follow the Microbot and it leads them to an abandoned warehouse where someone is mass producing Microbots.  The person producing the Microbots is a strange man in a mask. They narrowly escape him, and Hiro and Baymax report him to the authorities. But the cops don't believe them so Hiro goes home where he comes up with an idea: he will upgrade Baymax so that they can find the masked man and get revenge. They find the masked man at the docks where he is seen picking something up from the bottom of the sea. Go Go, Wasabi, Fred, and Honey Lemon find Hiro and Baymax and they help them escape from the masked man. They go to Fred's house (which turns out to be a huge mansion) to come up with a plan to stop the masked man. They build super hero suits to find the masked man. Baymax had already scanned the masked man so all they have to do is fly over the city and scan the whole city. Baymax finds the masked man's DNA signal coming from a small island. They go to the island to find and defeat the masked man.

***SPOILER ALERT STOP HERE IF YOU DON'T WANT THE END RUINED***

They make it to the island where they find some sort of abandoned science lab. They find some security  files that show that the machinery there was used as a teleportation device. But the device malfunctioned and ended up sending one woman (Katie Lowes) into the portal forever and the project was shut down. The man in the mask attacks them and the man is revealed to be...Callaghan...I...kind of saw this coming. This fills Hiro with rage and he tries to kill Callaghan but Callaghan escapes and Hiro returns home. Hiro and his friends figure out that the portal was built by Krei, and the woman that got stuck in he portal was Callaghan's daughter. Which means that Callaghan is trying to get revenge on Krei by rebuilding the portal and throwing him into the portal. They find Callaghan who attacks Krei in the middle of a lecture he is giving. Hiro and his friends try and stop Callaghan. They manage to defeat him but Baymax finds signs of life coming from the portal which Hiro and Baymx believe to be Callaghan's daughter. They save Callaghan's daughter. Callaghan is arrested and Hiro, Baymax, and the rest become super heroes. The End

***SPOILERS OVER KEEP READING***

Big Hero 6 is a great movie. The animation looks very nice and has it's own style to it. All the characters are very interesting and funny, and Baymax is just so likable it's hard not to love him. Now if there was something I didn't like it's that the identity of the masked man was a bit obvious...for me at least. But if you get the chance see Big Hero 6 while it's still in theaters. See you next time guys.
