Leave your thoughts about Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You!.
| StarburstGareth EvansThe movie is at its best when it is using the themes of its predecessor to tell its own story rather than the moments which essentially sell fans more of the same with a fresh coat of paint. |
| PolygonAllegra FrankThe Pokémon anime has hardly adhered to the rules of the original games. But Pokémon: I Choose You! goes a step further, ending with a moment so bizarre that my entire theater howled in disbelief. |
| IGN MoviesJoshua Yehl... ultimately the material just doesn't work. |
| The Straits Times (Singapore)Yip Wai YeeStill, there are some improvements here from the original anime. Visually, the animation is lovely to look at, with the glittering rainbow-coloured feathers of the mystical Ho-Oh character especially mesmerising. If only the story is as compelling. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)Ryan BrownIt's never boring, but it is undeniably ridiculous. Kids will love it because it's Pokémon on the big screen, and aged fans will have a laugh seeing it with friends. |
| GuardianMike McCahillOne of Ash's contemporaries describes his encounter with this rainbow-hued bird as 'a priceless experience.' Two decades' worth of vanished, irretrievable pocket money would say otherwise. |
| User ReviewzarakanQuand j'étais plus jeune, j'étais un grand fan de pokémon. Ce film ne m'a pas déçu, parce que lorsque j'avais visionné pokémon the first strike, il y avait énormément d'émotions transmises à travers le film. Ce film est à regarder si vous voulez voir un bon film de pokémon et si vous êtes vous même fan de pokémon depuis des années. Bien évidemment la prestation de Ôtani Ikue reste toujours aussi impressionante. |
| User Reviewnastybutler224I love this movie. Its Re-telling of the classic first episode of Pokemon is superb and than it builds on it. One scene towards the has become divisive among fans.But I only saw it as beautiful and Heartwarming. It made my girlfriend and I cry buckets for an hour. I just can't see what the fuss was about. |
| User ReviewJannah42591Definitely a nostalgia trip. It makes me want to rewatch the whole series over again. There were some cheesy scenes but they were the good kind of cheesy. Amazing. |
