It was okay. They should have done an original story instead of adapting that shitty video game.
>im kino

It was ok, i laughed and it was well made.
I think for the most part they respected the original universe.

It could have been much worse.

I don't like the stupid Deadpool guy, the ""humor"" and the fact that Pikachu talks
You can tell most jokes are made for 13 years old. Why grown up men laugh at this escapes my understanding

A shitty CGI flick intended for children and man children alike.
If you still play pokemon you are a faggot.

I liked it. Screw you OP

On the contrary, this script was very much intended for the late 20s-early 30s crowd. Growing up wanting to be a pokemon trainer, not working out and ending up working a job in insurance...it's very meta at times.

>movie about cartoon mouse in a detective hat is aimed at children

shocking

It was cute and surprisingly competently made

Any movie that can take Justice Smith and make me not hate him deserves respect.

>reveal Mewtwo in the trailer
>everyone assumes he's the villain
>he's actually the hero

Your expectations:
[X] Subverted
[_] Not Subverted

It was a good movie.

>mah niggas
Krabby, Onix, Hypno, Fearow

None of them were in it. Yes I'm a genwunner, but still.

Was it though?

Yeah, it was alright.

The story and characters are cliché and some of the acting is suspicious.

It's a movie about Pikachu, but he's a detective on the basis that he wears a Sherlock Holmes hat.

What were you expecting exactly? Because I went in expecting a lot worse than I got.

It's a good kid's movie. It's didn't try to revolutionize the genre.

Would love for the sequel to be set in England
