Pokémon : Jirachi, le génie des vœux

This movie is the best out of all 6 movies released so far. It has everything the other Pokemon films had except its executed much better. The two new characters Max and May add something to this movie that the others lack... the sense of a real chemistry between characters. While the villain in this one is the stupidest of the series (I mean his name is butler and he is a magician, come on). The song at the end of the film is very beautiful and nice to listen too. Overall this film is one of the better animated releases this year, too bad it was released direct to video while the last 3 crappy Pokemon films got theatrical releases.

GRADE: B

The sixth Pokémon movie is decent, but it's quite underwhelming compared to the best Pokémon movies. There are some things to enjoy, but there just wasn't much that was great or notable about it.

There wasn't much plot, to be honest. Most of the movie takes place at a circus and the last half hour was mostly spent on getting Jirachi to his home.

Jirachi was kind of cute but rather annoying for the most part, and I felt that his relationship with Max was kind of forced. It had the basic message of lasting friendship that while nice, has already been done before.

There wasn't much excitement until the last 20 minutes and the animation is still good but a definite step down from "Pokémon Heroes."

However, I will admit that there were some funny moments involving Jirachi, and Butler was fairly interesting as a villain. Even if a lot of the magic show scenes went on a little too long, some of them were quite entertaining.

Groudon is another cool legendary Pokémon, and the final 20 minutes are exciting enough. I also loved the "Make a Wish" song at the end credits.

Easily the worst Pokémon movie up to this point and, in my opinion, one of the least memorable. However, even though it's nothing special, at least it's never boring. It's not the worst Pokémon movie and it's still worth a watch, but don't expect anything mind-blowing.

RATING: C+

Well, Jessie, James and Meowth ALMOST stole Pikachu for once. Outside of that this movie is awful. It's a complete cringe-fest. There is nothing I hate more than a cringe-fest. The movie could be a Schindler's List level quality movie and I would still hate it because of the cringe. I don't do cringe, and this movie was constant cringe.

What was the point of Absol? He debuts trying to harm Jirachi because of a furtuee tragedy. Then Absol all of a sudden wants to help Jirachi. I don't get it.

3/4 of the movie was alright to watchable. The last bit when they get to Jirachi's home really shows how Pokémon producers think pokemon fans are dumb.

The positives are the Butler and his story.

Most of Everything else we've already seen before in the Pokemon series for the past 20 years.



A decent movie that ends subpar.

I never seen that movie before... but I'm looking forward to seeing that movie! 🙂
