"very harsh"
Okay firstthings first. They advertised that in the movie you would see all 150 pokemon Not true.And the stupid little movie at the begining pitiful. The movie seemed to be going on and on but not actually going any where. And at the end it to them so long to prove the very basic moral of the story. I have to admit i was abit surprised by the begining when mewtwo escapes that was the only part in the movie where something almost unpredictable hapended. Despite this movie earning 80 million amang the highest for cartoons the movie was HORRIBLE. Many pokemon fans where disapointed with the outcome of this movie.Just a cheap way for billion dollar companies to squeeze all the money they can out of hardworking people.The bottom line is don't even rent this movie.



"Gotta watch 'em all!"
Pokemon. A word that strikes fear into the hearts of adults and sends children scurrying for their pocket money. The incredible marketing phenomenon, which has spawned games, trading cards and an animated international TV series, now makes it's way to the local cineplex with the first in a projected series of feature film outings.

For those of you who have been living on a desert island for the last couple of years, Pokemon are 150 critters of different shapes and abilities, which are captured and held by human trainers, who unleash them to do battle witheach other. The main character in the animated series is Ash Ketchum, a brash young trainer, whose pet, Pikachu - a cute, mouse-like animal that shoots electricity - has become the unoffical mascot of the Pokemon universe.

In Pokemon: The First Movie, Ash, Pikachu and their friends are lured to New Island tocompete in the greatest competition in the world. Their host is Mewtwo, a sort of mouthless flying kitten. Angry over his creation, Mewtwo plans to wipe out all humans and Pokemons off the face of this Earth, using clones of the visting Pokemon. The result is a series of protracted battles between clones and original, before Ash and his crew finally save the day.

Whether the movie actually suceeds or not is difficult to say. There's lots of silly moralizing about things like responsibility and team-work, but, at the end of the day, the kids are there for the pointless, noisy fight scenes. All parents and adults should resign themselves to bringing along a good book or simply sitting in the car until the film is over.



"Very bad, a dissapointment, for the fans (i'm one of them)"
This movie it's just too bad, dumb plot, stone characters, no humor, no fun, no nothing, good, not even the animation!, the music it's the only good thing. period.



"Great movie."
It lacked the comedey of the sieries... but Team rocket wasn't beat. (5 star I LIKE team rocket) Pretty good effects and cool pokemon battles. I'm a true fan now. It's worth the money.



"Who says tragedies are better than comedies?!"
Even though I first watched it 100 times, when I got Pokemon 2, I was watching it again and again. This movie contains over 300 laughs, nice graphics, etc. Because I had too many R-rated movies that suck so hard that I'll never watch them ever again. I love the part when Mewtwo is throwing too many evil poke balls at his opponents. When he does, he simply tries his luck at making clones for himself. Did he? No. Not only is this movie the dark ruler of all, but it's the easiest movie to follow. But whatever you do, stay away from South Park. It's not worth it.
