Trivia

In the opening bot battle, Hiro goes up against Yama, a very large man controlling a battle-bot. When Yama turns and shows his back, the Japanese character for "mountain" ("yama") is embroidered on his jacket, as a joke about his large, 'mountain-like' size.

Goofs

When Hiro is betting at the bot fight, we can see he puts a messy pile of money on the betting dish. However, when he is taking the money in the end, the messy pile of money he put earlier is gone.

How to develop a lifelong love of the movies

A little over a year after I took my granddaughter Catrin (then almost three) to her first ever movie "Frozen" (which she utterly adored), I took her (now just four) to see this very different film from the same stable (Walt Disney Animation Studios) and I'm delighted to record that she loved it. We saw it in IMAX in 3D and we were both blown away.

Although this time the central character is a young boy - Hiro Hamada of the city of San Fransokyo - rather than two princesses, my granddaughter had no trouble relating to it because Hiro is so cute, his inflatable robot Baymax is androgynous, and two of his four friends - making up the six heroes - are very capable girls.

I reckon that "Frozen" plus "Big Hero 6" - with a few films in between - will give her a lifelong love of the movies.
