first of all and i be not a pokemon fan . i rent this movie one day because i be frightfully bore . now and the movie itself be not all that bad . sure and the dialogue suck and the character suck and you could care less if ash suddenly blow up and but the movie do have a few redeeming quality . the animated short and pikachu vacation be not one of them . the short be nearly unbearable and a it be all in pokemon jive talk . it be so excruciate i nearly fast forward to the movie . now the movie itself be almost average . i do not care for any character except maybe mewtwo and who be the only one somewhat developed . the movie do have a good message and but they almost state it directly . the final battle be almost exciting and but other than that and this movie be for the pokemon fan . negative .
