Wouldn't necessarily say it was a good movie but I enjoyed watching it, if only to see the Pokmon world brought to life. On a scale of 1-10 I give it a 6.

Agreed completely. Ryan Reynolds and the worldbuilding are GREAT. Most other aspects of the film are mediocre at best, and the acting in particular is pretty damn bad for the most part.

i mean that seems like the kind of rating it gets, and most comments are more along the lines of 'i enjoyed it, not that it was amazing or anything"

so i wouldn't say 'overrated'

I thought it was fine?

My main issue was with how 90% of the jokes were shown in the trailers. This is undefendable
Thanksfully the didn't spoil the best one (The Ditto twist)

It was alright. Not the biggest fan of Pokemon but some of the jokes were amusing enough. I liked seeing how Pokemon would really be used in the real world but of course it's all very surface level. Plot and characters (besides Pikachu himself) were extremely forgettable and massively predictable. The Ditto stuff was actually neat too though! Could've used a bit more actual detecting to the story.

It was pretty good. Liked that the presentation was family friendly without quite reaching the point of "kid's movie" to me. Thought the acting was fine too-- plot was a bit dumb but it was passable.

I thought it was great. Nothing mind blowing, but seeing real life Pokemon and knowing they would have an audience of people who grew up on the Gen 1 stuff taking their kids to see it helped. They really knew who they were making this for.

No, it was overall a really mediocre movie, but majority of the cool things were spoiled in the trailer. So it wasn't a fun watch.

That said it showed some potential, and I'm hoping we some movies based on the actual games now

yes. Animation and worldbuilding was great. Plot was decent for this kind of movie. Dialogue was...pretty bad. There are a lot of lines that so poor that theyre just funny. That being said, I wasnt expecting realistic or well-written dialogue going in, so i wasnt too disappointed there

I agree with this too. It's good enough for the first film, but it also had the novelty value of live action Pokemon as a crutch. The novelty will wear off after 2 or 3 films, and they will need to improve if the inevitable Pokemon Cinematic Universe is to continue past that point.

Something I forgot to mention earlier, I do admire the film for not playing it safe. It goes all in with the concept of a Pokemon world, as opposed to just taking a recognizable Earth and adding Pikachu, Charizard and a handful of the other Pokemon the mainstream have heard of via pop-cultural osmosis.

Same goes for the film's premise. It would have been so easy (and arguably more lucrative at the box office, since it would have been more general audience friendly) to simply adapt season 1 of the anime, make a Pokemon Go film, or - Arceus forbid - come up with a story where Ash and Pikachu are brought out of the anime and enter the Real World, where they befriend a little girl and her estranged, recently widowed father (possibly played by Brendan Fraser, because the dude deserves some work) and the foursome work together to find a way back home.
