Rogering Sue.
Yeah I'd give it a chance, the Lego movie was pretty damn good. It's bound to be better than all the comic book/super hero **** we've had in cinemas recently.

Wow. Now that's something I haven't seen in about 20 years. The guys who designed Pikachu must have been fans. They've nicked the fur.
Pikachu looks the most off of the lot. Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur look pretty good.

Detective Pikachu leaked video
Best 1 hour 43 minutes I've seen

Nearly forgot:
My kids nearly crippled me when i tricked them with this last night - both jumped on me at the same time. Worth it - 5 minutes both transfixed, with occasional head turns in my direction to check i was watching too (they're rightly suspicious) - until sudden realisation (damn that second controller) - priceless.
Who needs two working lungs anyway?..

Just came back from watching it. No major spoilers, but will spoiler warning my thoughts:
OK so, there's lots of references. So much so I'm fairly certain I missed some.
Half the fun of the movie was probably catching those references.
It's not super thought provoking or anything like that: It's a Pokemon movie after all, if you've come here expecting Batman Early Years Detective Comics level of detective work; nope, this is not it. It's aimed for fans and most of those are going to be young kids.
Subsequently, the films falls into a lot of "convenient" plot points that join up together to make the film. And it's fairly easy to notice for some. But if you can overlook it, the film is entertaining for what it is.
There is no end credit thing like Marvel films, but the credits itself is chock full of stuff for people to watch.

Just came back from this - loved it. Felt a bit weird until pikachu showed up and from then on it was great. It was basically deadpool with Pokemon nostalgia and frequently rather funny
Leave your brain at the door of course.

... but no sequel! Awww man that sucks!
Mewtwo was awesome tbh. Such a great villain from my childhood on the big screen done really well. Super cool
Ditto was equally brilliant.
Twenty zillion charmanders... would have been cool for a bit more variety but... budget and all that. Basically if it’s not the original 151 = fake.

I watched this yesterday and it was brilliant. Never been a Pokeman fan tbh so going in I was completely blind as to most of their abilities too which made things more fun!

Sequel already in development, and imagine unless the film flops it'll happen
Really enjoyed it, it's a bit like the fast and furious films, if you leave your brain at the door it's great fun

It was funny. I laughed when I saw it was filmed a lot in London.

Not a Pokemon fan, never played any of the games or seen the anime.
But okay movie, not as good as the Lego movie, kept me amused with the different Pokemon and Pikachu was very cute. It was fine.
