Heartfelt but a little OTT
The sentiment to this Disney film is bittersweet about loss and love, which makes it different to most Disney films. But the crazy superhero action was just too much. A little bit of realism goes a long way. Other than that I love Baymax!

"“It’s got Albert Finney in and it’s about living for the weekend and having that kind of hedonism, but not really because it’s a small town and they go to the same haunts every time. There’s an unusual gritty realism about it too. It’s about fighting, shagging and drinking.”"

"The godfather of magical realism, but not twee at all. Also the underwater sequence has been homaged so many times it’s solidified as legendary. Michel Simon’s character is so touching in this film, he’s also littered with so many tattoos he could be a transplant from a Viceland show."

A truely moving first hand account of what happens within the NHS. The daily struggles faced not only by the inidividuals who are doctors but families aswell.
Heartbreakingly funny at points and the realism hits and the most unexpected times.
A wonderful readig experience documented to absolute perfection.
