BIG HERO 6

Don Hall and Chris Williams
Cert: PG, 114 mins

Following on from Disney’s terrific run of recent CGI animated films that are both character-driven and highly entertaining – from Bolt to Tangled to Wreck-It Ralph to Frozen – their latest effort, Big Hero 6, is every bit as good and recently won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature.

When robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada (Ryan Potter) suffers a personal loss, it’s up to his brother Tadashi’s (Daniel Henney) inflatable medical robot Baymax (Scott Adsit) and his genius scientist friends – Jamie Chung, Damon Wayans Jr. and Genesis Rodriguez, plus the hilarious ‘science enthusiast’ Fred (T.J. Miller) – to help him process his grief.
