Summary: Good anime flick, bad moral message
Review: Though not graphic in its violence, POKEMON: MEWTWO STRIKES BACK teaches the moral (there are six other morals blended in also) that fighting is the RIGHT way to solve issues? What is up with that?As in the TV shows, a Pokemon trainer, Ash and his other friends, also Pokemon trianers, are heading off to the big Pokemon tournament to be the greatest Pokemon master. Meanwhile, a mean, mutated Pokemon is cloned out of the angelic Mew, called Mewtwo, wants revenge and closes off the tournament by creating a bad storm. But Ash and his friends manage to get to the tournament, and Mewtwo decides to clone all the Pokemon and send them fighting against each other and rule the world. Ash, in order to save the Pokemon and his world, has to fight Mewtwo. The movie is a promising, though short at 1 hour and 9 minutes, cutesy anime flick. The animation is bright and colorful, a fine vocal cast and comic humor is aplenty. But, in spite of the promising things, P:MSB has a flimsy plot and the moral sticking out is that fighting is the right way to settle issues? I give it a full ***** stars, but I subtract 1 for the flimsy plot and another for the the fighting moral. If the writers for the U.S. release had though better, they might have rewritten a moral in there that is better than the... one that is implied in this otherwise delightful animated movie.

Summary: Number One Movie
Review: Pokemon the movie 1 takes place in the Kanto area. This movie starts when Ash gets an invitation to battle the best trainer in the wrold on an island in the sea. But when he gets to the port where they're supposed to leave from a storm is brewing but Ash and the other heros are not going to give up that easily so they hop aboard a boat with two vikings. The ride was going smooth until it turned out that these vikings were really members of Team Rocket!
If this sounds interesting to you then you should check it out right now. If it doesn't I still sugest you think about it.

Summary: A movie based on a [bad] TV show can't be that good
Review: First there were Pokemon: The Video games. The games were decent, but nothing special. Then came a horrible TV show starring an annoying, whiny-voiced kid (Ash) and a little yellow electric rat(pikachu). My brother owns this movie. I have seen it a few times. I was not impressed, but then again, I wasn't too happy with the... TV show on which it is based. The message in the movie-it's what's inside that matters-has been overused in other children's movies. Fans of the TV show (like my brother) will enjoy it, but the movie(and the show) are too inconsistent with the Game Boy games. Hearing the annoying voice of Ash and watching him make stupid decisions detracts even more from the movie. The worst part is, there's not one but TWO sequels. What were they thinking?

Summary: Not bad,but a little violent for the young ones
Review: This wasn't bad for a first movie,but I found it a little
violent for young children.When Mewtwo blows up the lab,you
know people died in there.Otherwise,it's a good film!

Summary: I found this to be the best of all the Pokèmon movies.
Review: My kids (5 & 3) LOVE Pokèmon, they have ALL (as in, ALL the US and Japanese issued) the toys, movies, bed sheets, pillows, etc. My oldest son really got into this film the first time he saw it at the theatre. He actually cried when Ash "died" during the battle scene between Mew and Mew Two. Then again, so did about 50+ kids that were there as well. Overall, this is the best Pokèmon movie so far, and the Pikachu's vacation was simply hilarious from start to finish. I highly recommend this one. :o)

Summary: Terrible
Review: I saw this movie when it was in the theatres when I liked Pokemon. I think this is what put me off. The first part, Pikachu's vacation dragged on and I couldn't wait untill the actual thing. It was even worse. I was going to leave half-way through, but I decided not to because I wanted to see if Mew or Mewtwo won. It was a draw. That was a huge disapointment. They also ran out of the special cards you were meant to get. I used to be a Pokemon Fanatic, but now it's my worst nightmare, especially the TV Show, but the game is ok untill you beat it.

Summary: The best Pokemon movie
Review: Easily my favorite of the 3 movies, this first animated movie was much darker and brooding than the light-hearted television show. Mewtwo was by far the most menacing villain in any of the 3 movies. The plot was excellent as was the animation. It was a welcome sight to see the Pokemon (especially my favorite, Vulpix!) on the big screen. The story did get a bit heavy at times - even main character Ash temporarily "dies", but is brought back to life through the combined mystical powers of the Pokemon, which, in turn, teaches villainous Mewtwo a valuable lesson that life is a gift, not to be squandered. Good life lesson, great animation, great story, great Pokemon! The short before the movie, "Pikachu's Vacation", maybe should have been shown after the feature (I think the Pokemon needed another vacation after that!), but it was cute. Those who do not follow Pokemon will probably be lost, as the Pokemon speak their own language (variations on their names). But again, for me, it was great to see Vulpix on the big screen so much! My only complaint about the DVD version is that it is not in the widescreen format, thus cutting off quite a bit of the original picture. This was especially upsetting to me since Vulpix was in the corner of the screen a lot, and tended to get cut off more in the DVD version. Oh, well... maybe someday they'll make a special deluxe edition in widescreen. Until then, if you like Pokemon, get this DVD!

Summary: Anime. Plus Cutesiness, Minus Animation and Plot
Review: Yuck! How did Pokemon hit it big!? The plot in this anime/animation floatsom is terrible! And it's like Once Upon A Forest, the message it gives out to little kids is hackyed, and the animation is terrible. And there are 4 sequels to it? Now that is just wrong!
