Review of Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You!
"Hey let's rewrite everyone's childhood memory of the series with a reboot movie that only focus on two Pokemon of Ash's team and screw everything else" - TPC Such a shameless excuse for a movie. Ash had Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Charizard, now they removed all of them except for two for no reason. The story is basically the same but they replaced interesting and fun characters (Misty and Brock) with bland, dull and boring characters that do nothing to the plot and literally are just there to show their Lucario and Piplup to sell merchs. Charizard story is a retelling for the worse. Pikachu is cringy and an annoyingasshole as ever.
The legendaries have no real plot except of course just being there for nostalgia and of course merchs.
The whole movie is a bad excuse to attract nostalgia fans, and you might have fun watching it the first time but overall it's terrible and awful.
In the good side, the art and music are good and the action scenes are fun too.
