    Reminds me of Pokemon Apokélypse.

    Surprisingly innovative, we'll see if it ends up like the Western version of Dragonball or the Western version of Death Note.

    I think it takes some getting used to the look. Mr. Mime is quite a bit in the uncanny valley and so are Pikachu's eyes which remind me of my old teddy bear's. Still, I'll go and see it.

    The trailer made it seem like it's got a lot of similarities with the actual game.

    I like that they're trying to capture a wider market than just the kids with this one. The irreverent humour seems as though it could be all-encompassing, though I must confess I do miss the vocal talents of Kaiji Tang.

    The pokemon are more impressive looking than I thought they would be.
    1) There's no excuse for laziness, but I'm working on it!
    2) I will live forever or die trying
    3) It's only funny until somebody gets hurt...............then it's hilarious

    I really hope you are wrong, but in the end Hollywood is to good to disappoint, right? See Dragonball, a masterpiece by any standards.

    The movie was pretty good. Especially the first 30 minutes were fun, then it was a bit too hurried.

    It's actually a good movie. Of course, it's not like it's an Oscar-worthy one, but it's sufficient for fans, overall. The Pokemon graphics and models were done right.

    By the way, my brother Tommy has a wicker dog kennel for sale. If anyone’s interested, feel free to PM me.

    Mewtwo should not move its mouth! Freaked me out. And a lot of the pokemon fur was too fuzzy for my tastes. They looked like the fur of carnival prizes, not, like, regular animal fur that lays flatter.

    It was a cute movie though! It felt like it was written for Millenials but stayed kid-friendly, to satisfy many generations of Pokemon fans.

    Loved it. Got drunk and wrote a review.

    I had to edit the fuck out of it when I sobered up to make any sense of it.

    Here is my slightly coherent review.
