Thanks to Disney, we were treated to an afternoon at the movies last week. It was still in that weird, almost surreal, period between Christmas and New Years, where everyone runs on a combination of almost overdrawn adrenaline and swings between enjoying the spirit of the time and just wanting it to be over already. Hence, as I Tweeted just as the movie was starting, almost every adult in that theatre was clutching a coffee and probably wanting to catch a bit of shut-eye.

But that didn’t happen in this movie – nor would you want to. I really enjoyed it, and what I liked about it most of all was that it was an appropriate superhero-style movie for younger kids. It fits in perfectly, and strikes right notes in terms of showing adventure while modelling responsible behaviour: vengeance, for example, has dire consequences. Friendship is very important too – and it is an interesting friendship circle, as the protagonist, Hiro, is many years younger than his compatriots. That gap is filled by the wonderful Baymax, the inflatable healthcare robot, and their relationship is the real heart of the movie. I admit to a tear in my eye on more than one occasion. Recommended.
