Even though the plot of Big Hero 6 is ridiculous and relies on “science” as a cure-all storytelling crutch, there is a fleet-of-foot quality throughout. He’s clumsy like Chaplin, caring like ET and, for someone with great powers, amusingly clueless about human behaviour, all with a blank face and calm voice.
