East meets West to immensely satisfying effect in the vibrant mash-up of an animated romp, Big Hero 6. - 89
TheWrap
Sweet and sharp and exciting and hilarious, Big Hero 6 comes to the rescue of what's become a dreaded movie trope — the origin story — and launches the superhero tale to pleasurable new heights. - 83
The Playlist
Whatever flaws it has are ones of over-enthusiasm and over-ambition and are therefore easy to forgive, especially because when it works, it really works. - 80
The Telegraph
A melding of old and new modes of animation, in which the attentive artistry of the past coexists with the hyper-detailed, computer-generated present. - 75
Hitfix
As much as the action stuff works and would indicate that any other property Marvel entrusts to the animation side of things is in good hands, Big Hero 6 gets by more on the charms of its comedy. - 75
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
It’s manipulative and overlong, too loud and “Incredibles” action-packed for the very young. But the manipulation errs on the side of mercy, compassion, sacrifice and humanity. - 70
Variety
After establishing its fresh and relatable origin story, the movie gets bogged down with a relatively generic villain’s power-hungry schemes. Still, there’s enough that’s new and different about Big Hero 6 to get excited about, especially for those still too young for Marvel’s more intense live-action fare. - 70
Village Voice
Big Hero 6 is easier to admire than to love. It veers from chipper to noisy to dark stretches where it grapples with adult-sized grief.
