Pokémon: The Rise Of Darkrai · review

8 /10

A great Pokemon movie- one of the best in the franchise. The story, with a battle between Dialga and Palkia causing space-time anomalies, culminating with Ash and the gang having to stop the town from being erased, was very cool. I really like when Pokemon goes for the kind of "epic sci-fi" vibe and this definitely delivered. Better yet, unlike some other movies in the franchise which take a long while to get going, this got interesting right away and stayed so till the end. The fight scenes were very exciting and tense, as is the standard for the series, and there was a lot of funnymoments, in particular when Baron Alberto turned into a Lickilicky! I especially liked when he called his own attacks :)

And once again, the animation/direction was very well-done. In particular, the final climax scene was absolutely stunning.

Overall, a great one. I'm not sure where it ranks in the grand spectrum of the movies, but it's definitely in the top 5. Would recommend to any fan of the franchise.
