We went to see this tonight, and it was a very cute movie. It has many heartwarming moments, funny moments, sad, action etc... The idea of big business is also there. Overall, a great animated movie. Some parts seemed a little rushed, just to get to the next scene. Although it was sad at the end to see Beymax go, that was semi-predictable, we were glad to see him brought back to life at the end. The movie made me laugh, has some serious themes that run deep, and made me cry, so that makes a good movie- feeling a range of emotions, with some moral/emotional connections. I liked seeing the big brother take care of Hiro. Go see it- you won't be disappointed.

Entertaining Movie!

This movie was better than I expected. I thought that it would be predictable and one of the dime a dozen animation films coming out now. I am an animation fan, and the animation was great, in addition to the story. The characters were somewhat predictable, but very well done and not boring. The voices are very well done as well. This is a movie that children can also enjoy (sounds kind of odd being that animation films are usually supposed to be for kids), in addition to adults. It has some really funny parts that are not cliché humor. Probably the best part about it is the message it sends about humans encroaching on animal habitats and how it affects the balance of nature.

This short always lifts my spirits!

I LOVE THIS LITTLE FILM! In all seriousness, I put this short on, and a smile comes on my face. I know all of the words to the song. It's rhythm and rhyme and so catchy. The music goes along great with the story also. It sends a great message that you have to be thankful for what you have, and be happy with yourself. When I went to go see "The Incredibles" in the movie theater, I remember that I really liked "Boundin'". It sends a nice message, and the characters in the film are incredibly cute and endearing. It's just a feel good, cute short. I don't know why it didn't get more stars. Even if it's a little predictable, if it could make you smile even for a little while, it's worth it.

I saw this movie recently, and I'm not really a "movie person". When I do go to the movies, I like to see worthwhile movies, and this movie lived up to it. It was touching, yet in a way as not to be predictable or cliché. It shed some light on some "touchy" issues that we all in some way or another are affected by (whether as a "victim" or simply an outsider). The movie made you really think about how we are all interconnected in some way or another, and how one's actions (although they may seem insignificant) do affect other people, and serve to either promote harmony or discord in the world. It was a wonderful portrayal of the diversity of people, and how that in itself plays out in a big city.
