Pokémon Detective Pikachu

It's Not Bad. It's probably the best Theatrical Pokemon Movie ever made for what it's worth. There's always been two problems with these films. The fact they assume you already know all the characters AND know what Pokemon is going into it. This solves...half of that problem. It defeintely assumes you know what Pokemon are beforehand but it introduces characters in a traditional fashion. The cinematography is actually good here. The CGI designs are nice, it's bright and colorful, plenty of action, and the direction is pretty good. It reminds me of Blade Runner sometimes visually. Everything else isn't that bad here. The characters are kind of bland and generic including the bad guy but Reynolds is solid and the best thing here. He's got energy and charm and it never feels weird seeing a Pokemon talk. This has a very odd tone in terms of genre mixing. This is a Buddy Detective/Cop type of plot mixed with a Sci-Fi type of family adventure with Pokemon and a hint of Neo Noir. The plot is suprisngly complicated and honestly it kind of got a little hard to follow at the end but also got kind of mindless too. It's a Pokemon Movie so it ends still how you think it will for what it's worth. But it's fun, it's respectful to the source material, and a very original idea. It just needed to maybe better explain Pokemon better and make it more accessible. Like Battles, evolution, and all they just expect you to know that going in. That or either making more interesting characters would've helped too. But anyone who is a fan of Pokemon or any actors in this should check this out.

It's awesome fantastic superb

I love this movie it is funny and better then Mario movie

Amei o filme roteiro muito bom design dos pokémon super realista

This might not be for everyone, but their meta-jokes will have Pokémon fans rolling in their seats.

I mean, it's alright for a Pokemon movie, but it could've done a little better with one thing. The Pokemon, which is my biggest problem with this movie, because first of all, Mr.Mime, need I say less? But also just the number of Pokemon in this movie was... ok. But overall, good plot, kinda predictable, but a good watch for Pokemon lovers like me.

This movie was so much fun to watch! I've been a fan of Pokémon since I was a kid, and seeing this movie was food for the soul. The animation for all of the different Pokémon were great, and the story was compelling and hilarious. I definitely recommend it!

pretty flipping cool

Its pretty entertaining and great visuals, overall better than STH 1

A live-action Pokémon movie isn't something anyone expected but it works really well, it's always fun to see how the creatures are redesigned to fit the aesthetic. The plot was really good and managed to deliver well on the "Detective" aspect of it's title with excellence
