    Surprising less moldy and trite than the last two.

    Harmless in the extreme and it'll mute your kids for nearly 80 minutes, but why not just treat the little yard apes to the real deal and take them to ''Spirited Away''?

    A rote exercise in both animation and storytelling.

    Big movie with big dreams including big boss battles that appeal to small children. What a waste...

    I love Pokemon a lot, but I'm not very fond of it's movies (the first one was the best). The dub is pretty terrible, and there are one-liners abund. While this movie will mainly entertain younger audiences, the message is loud and clear: only watch this if you're a die-hard fan.… Expand
