Cute film, needs a bit a depth
23 March 2023
Imagine a PG rated Deadpool put into a CGI character. Then, add a mystery being led by a good actor (Justice Smith) who has a somewhat mediocre script. You add in the various Pokemon characters (Siduck, ditto, mime etc.) and a dash of love interest that's barely there and, voila, you have the movie.

Ryan Reynolds who voiced the CGI detective Pikachu carried the film. I think if any other actor had been chosen for the voice, the film would have done badly. As it is, it is a go to film for mindless entertainment for me. I love Reynolds' voice acting in this.

Don't expect a lot, but it's good for what it is.
