Gekijôban Poketto Monsutâ Adobansu Jenerêshon: Myû to hadô no yûsha Rukario

The start of this movie was epic up until Ash came around and he let the corniness begin.

Mew is just there to cause the unnecessary plot problem. Mew abducts meowth and pikachu and then has the human get almost murdered by the Regi-pokemon. Yet mew plays the victim.

The girl with the ponytails is only there as a tour guide. She is not essential to anything.

A wild Bonsly steals food and Brock reacts very upset at it. What does everyone else do? Attack Brock for not showing passive corny behaviour. Lucario takes the food back and the humans say nothing.

How does anyone write these corny movies/shows without feeling weird or sick?

Oh gosh and the music is awful. The only good pokemon songs are Gen 1 theme, goodbye pikachu and Gen 1 poke rap.

Good movie but the passive silly overdone cliché corniness needs to stop.

When you look this movie and you'll be stunned because it's a different movie than its predecessor and you know this movie had praised it's visual effect,story,places, and background. So... this film was good narrated and become one of few good movie you should watch. Unfortunately, this film was missed by its acting and several cinematography that must be improved next film.To be honest, while you watch the trailer you will be happy then if you look the movie you will excited. It's fun movie yet entertaining and strong story.

So i'll give the score VISUAL EFFECT 82 SPECIAL EFFECT 78 STORY 88 CREATIVITY 92 ACTING 70 CINEMATOGRAPHY 74 ENTERTAINING 84

OVERALL 79-87 QUITE IMPRESSIVE "GREAT"

End of Reviewing. Sorry if my English is not good or misspelled.

This was a fantastic movie. The subplots were fantastic, the music was inspirational and phenomenal, and the song 'Advanced Battle' was also not half bad. There were a couple of things changed in the dub that I did not like, but it was still pretty good. The worst thing about this movie though, is Lucario's VA. In the original, they made Lucario sound like a noble,medieval, sensitive, ninja (which he is), but in the dub, they made him sound like a constantly angry monster. Lucario is no monster! He has feelings too! Anyways, if you've ever liked anything about Pokémon, or are willing to give it a try, then I highly suggest you watch this movie.

But alas, even though it is fantastic, it is still relatively immature, and is nowhere near as deep as some other movies.

I only watched this on you tube rather than give it a rental or even own it. That said, I did like the opening sequence which gives the complete history of Pokémon. However, after that it begins to go down hill and becomes another advanced generation episode with the same old paper-thin, immature, predictable plot, annoying characters (like Max and May), and same old third-rate pop songs from the show. I did like the animation though, and how Lucario had to understand humans, but with the inclusion of Mew, it kind of lost its "umph". I only recommend renting it to see what it is like. The third movie still ranks even with the test of time as the number one Pokémon movie

I was genuinely and pleasantly surprised, there was a good Pokemon movie made. The last Pokemon film I saw was Pokemon 3, which was the definition of "mediocre." Since the next four Pokemon films aren't being distributed anywhere anymore, I couldn't see them, so I have picked it up on what's effectively Pokemon 8. This is a huge step up. Better animation, better score, better voice acting (though still far from perfect), and a genuinely good story. I was actually pretty interested the whole way through on what was going to happen. Something I could not say at all for the first three films. It's actually good. So, yeah, I can actually recommend a Pokemon movie finally.
