Big Hero 6


There’s not much I can describe about Big Hero 6 without just giving away the movie, but I'll try my best:

Hiro Hamada is a fourteen-year-old genius who invents a revolutionary new type of robot, micro-bots, in order to be accepted into his brother’s university. Unfortunately, a fire destroys his new invention and all he has left is a robot called Baymax – a cute, cuddly health assistant. He realises that someone had stolen his micro-bots and he teams up with his friends from the university and Baymax to take down the unknown thief.

The first half of this movie will have you asking questions like:
How does a fourteen-year-old orphan have enough money to design and build robots in his garage?
Why does Hiro look about seven years old? 
And, are they meant to be in Tokyo or San Francisco?
The second half of this movie will have you asking questions like:
How does a fourteen-year-old orphan have enough money to design and build superhero suits in his garage?
Did they seriously just say - San Frantokyo?
And was that really the big twist?

Overall, I thought Big Hero 6 was a very unique movie. I’d seen it before and still enjoyed watching it the second time, though I’m not sure I could handle a third screening. It’s entertaining, funny, and has a few great scenes but I’d understand if you wanted to pass on this one.
Marks out of 10? 6.5

Mum’s three words of wisdom:
Sad but good (Mum was a bit upset by some of the things that happened to Hiro)

The snooze news:
Did dad fall asleep during Big Hero 6? Nothing out of the snoredinary – of course he did!

Zootropolis

Image
At its heart, Zootroplis (or Zootopia) is a film about race and discrimination, but on the outside it’s a movie about a city run by animals – and it is absolutely brilliant! Last week I watched this film for the third time and though I knew everything that was going to happen, I still thoroughly enjoyed it and would watch it again. The animation is incredible, the plot is great, it’s funny, dramatic and   heart-warming - and should definitely be trop of your list. (Sorry…) The movie follows Judy Hopps, the first rabbit-police officer of Zootroplis – a city where all the different animals of the world live together. Animals have started going missing and Judy, with the help of crafty fox Nick Wilde, have 48 hours to track one of them down, finding themselves wrapped up in something much bigger than just a missing animal case. I really can’t articulate how good Zootropolis is   – there wasn’t a dull moment or even a dull shot. The storyline is genuinely impressive,...

Small Fry, Party Central, Inner Workings and Presto short films

Image
You may think I’m running short of things to write about but believe me there are  plenty of shorts to write about. If you have little interest in films, then shorts are perfect as  they are just little films - there are even some about the Simpsons and we sure ate those up! (get it…).  Small Fry This first short is guaranteed to give you a buzz - two actually. Buzz Lightyear has been replaced by a  miniature version and finds himself stuck in a support group for discarded toys in Poultry Palace.  The smaller space ranger is taken home and begins annoying the other toys whilst the real Buzz has to sit through the therapy session. This short film is pretty entertaining, especially seeing and hearing all the other discarded toys as they do look like the sort of things I threw away when I was younger! Marks out of 10: 7 Party Central I have to say that Mike Wazowski and his friends are losers, not to Sully their good names. So when they hold  a...

Pollyana

Image
We tried to postpone it for as long as we could, but we had to watch Dad’s pick eventually! It's been over a week since my last review and tomorrow in the UK, the 8 th of May, there is a national holiday and  I’m pretty sure it’s being held to celebrate my Dad picking a good film. Yes, you read that correctly - a good film! Pollyana is a movie from 1960 about a young orphan who is taken in by her Aunt and proceeds to improve the lives of everybody in the town - spreading happiness and joy wherever she goes. Personally, I’ve never met a girl anything like that - I’ll have to ask my sister if she has! Pollyana is played by Hayley Mills and the film is really  nice  to watch - a bit like Lady and the Tramp which you can read about here . (I’m getting good at this blogging thing, aren’t I?) Pollyanna’s parents have died, and she has gone to live with her Aunt who is the most influential person in town. In fact, the town of Harrington is actually named after her Aunt Pol...
