The way in which the Pokemon look is pretty off-putting, as though the film attempted to capture the uncanny valley effect and only partially succeeded. The plot also seems like a pretty standard buddy-cop film for the family.

I have no plans on seeing it unless either my girlfriend or my cousin's children want to go see it.

I agree with everything you said. I probably won't see it either, at least I won't pay to see it.

Weird to see it exists though. :troll2

Let's not kid ourselves though. The movie would've been gr9 in terms of entertainment value had Danny DeVito voiced Pikachu.

Some thoughts:

I really don't mind the way this looks, but why the goofy story that deviates from the anime? Just adapt the first season of Pokemon and this would be passable.

mfw Ryan Reynolds as Pikachu. :wat

Does Ken Watanabe have a contract to play every Asian role every in the history of film?

A game was released on the 3DS with the same title, so I assume it's based off that. I think a true, live-action Pokemon has amazing potential, but this isn't that lol. Imagine Jurassic Park with Pokemon. :mikey

Since Hollywood wont star a Japanese American as the lead, they have to make do with Watanabe brandishing his AUTHENTIC JAPANESE ACCENT.
